THE IMPORTANCE OF LANGUAGE IN THE CONCEPTUALIZATION OF THE WORLD
##submission.downloads##
This article reveals the language and its role, influence and place in conceptualization, and presents its important aspects. This article explains that language not only encodes but also expresses concepts. The article also presents works and theories in the study of conceptualization. From the theory of metaphor to the study of conceptual blending and prototype theory, the scholars of this field have shown that language is not just a means of expressing pre-existing ideas, but also shows its complex participation in the formation of concepts used to understand and manage reality.
