A Study Of Polysemy On Chinese Body-Part Terms Tou ‘Head’ And Yan ‘Eye’ : A Cognitive Approach / Lv Yetong, Yetong Lv

Student Works (2010-2019)

Polysemy, or the association of two or more related meanings with a single linguistic form (Taylor, 1995, p.99), is ubiquitous in language and receives attention from many linguistic disciplines.
