Opis

This book provides insights into the aspect of language concerned with expressing and giving shape to events in the external world and of the internal world of consciousness for a more effective information sharing system, especially in specialised domains in less widely used languages which, for a very long time, as a result of cynicism, have faced the problem of institutionalised pessimism in the business of information sharing. Using the knowledge approach (units, structure, representation, evolution, acquisition of knowledge), the book investigates how cognitive frames/models could be used in understanding a word, term or concept for effective translation from and into as many languages as is desirable.
