Thesis Abstract

<p> This research project aims to explore the influence of language on shaping perceptions of time. It seeks to investigate how linguistic structures, temporal markers, and conceptual metaphors in language contribute to the construction of temporal cognition and the organization of temporal experience. By examining the interplay between language and temporal perception, the study aims to provide insights into the ways in which language shapes our understanding of time. <br></p>

Thesis Overview

<p> </p><div><div><div><div><div>The relationship between language and temporal perception has been a subject of interest across various disciplines, including linguistics, cognitive science, and anthropology. This research project aims to delve into the role of language in shaping perceptions of time, seeking to provide a comprehensive understanding of how linguistic structures, temporal markers, and conceptual metaphors in language influence the construction of temporal cognition and the organization of temporal experience.</div><div>The study will explore the intricate interplay between language and temporal perception, addressing the influence of linguistic structures and temporal markers on temporal cognition. It will investigate the ways in which tense, aspect, adverbial expressions, and temporal frames in language contribute to the conceptualization and representation of time. By examining linguistic structures and temporal cognition, the research aims to provide insights into the cognitive and linguistic mechanisms involved in shaping perceptions of time.</div><div>Furthermore, the research will consider the influence of cultural variations on temporal markers, addressing the cross-linguistic analysis of temporal marking and the cultural influences on temporal lexicon. It will explore how different linguistic and cultural contexts shape temporal frames and worldview, contributing to diverse perceptions of time. By examining temporal markers and cultural variations, the study aims to provide insights into the cultural and linguistic factors that influence temporal perception.</div><div>The study will also delve into the role of conceptual metaphors in shaping perceptions of time, addressing the metaphorical representations of time and embodied cognition. It will explore how language employs metaphorical expressions to conceptualize and communicate temporal concepts, and how these metaphors influence temporal perception. By examining conceptual metaphors and time, the research aims to provide insights into the ways in which language shapes the conceptualization of time through metaphorical representations.</div><div>Finally, the research will consider the implications of language-induced temporal biases, addressing the influence of temporal framing on decision making, and the concept of linguistic relativity in temporal perception. It will explore how language influences thought and temporal experience, contributing to temporal biases and cognitive framing. By examining language, thought, and temporal experience, the study aims to provide insights into the ways in which language shapes temporal perception and cognition.</div><div>In conclusion, this research project seeks to contribute to our understanding of the intricate relationship between language and temporal perception, offering insights into the ways in which language shapes our conceptualization and experience of time. By exploring linguistic structures, temporal markers, conceptual metaphors, and their influence on temporal cognition, the study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the role of language in shaping perceptions of time.</div></div><div><div><div><div><div></div></div><div><div></div></div></div><div><div><div></div></div><div><div></div></div><div><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div><div><br> </div></div><br><p></p>
