Searching For The Semantic Boundaries Of The Japanese Colour Term 'Ao', Francis Conlan
Searching For The Semantic Boundaries Of The Japanese Colour Term 'Ao', Francis Conlan
Theses: Doctorates and Masters
The Japanese language has a colour term, 'ao' (or 'aoi'), which is usually referred to in bilingual dictionaries as being the equivalent of English 'blue'. Very often, however, it is used to describe things which English speakers would describe as being green. Granny Smith apples are 'ao', so are all Westerners' eyes, regardless of whether they would be described as being 'blue' or 'green' in English. The sky and the sea are prototypically 'ao', but this term is also used to describe lawns, forests, traffic lights and unripe tomatoes. What, then, do Japanese native speakers (henceforth JNS) understand by this …

Since Joseph Smith's Time: Lexical Semantic Shifts In The Book Of Mormon, Renee Bangerter
Since Joseph Smith's Time: Lexical Semantic Shifts In The Book Of Mormon, Renee Bangerter
Theses and Dissertations
In the years since Joseph Smith completed the translation of the Book of Mormon, the English language has changed; some common phraseologies and word meanings are dissimilar to today's.

Our interpretation of these words, as well as the passages in which they are found, is skewed by our modern definitions. These words, when they occur in the Book of Mormon, demonstrate dialectal and obsolete senses. In the case of some words, the dialectal or obsolete sense is so far …

Experimental Results Of Training In General Semantics Upon Intellingence-Test Scores, Joseph C. Trainor
Experimental Results Of Training In General Semantics Upon Intellingence-Test Scores, Joseph C. Trainor
All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies
The theory of General Semantics in its present (1935) form is essentially that there exists in the human nervous system a general mechanism, somewhat similar in nature of concept to that type of functioning which we have been calling vaguely, intelligence. In distinction, however, to the commonly held views on intelligence, General Semantics implies that this mechanism is exceedingly amenable to environmental influences; that it may, in other words, show marked effects of training in Semantic methods.
To this end a group of thirty sophomores in the Washington State Normal School at Ellensburg, Washington, were given the Detroit Intelligence Test, …
