CORRESPONDENCE OF BEHAVIORAL VERBS TO THE INTER-LINGUISTIC LEVEL

Abstract

The study of behavioral verbs offers a fascinating glimpse into the intricate relationship between language, thought, and culture. Behavioral verbs, which encompass actions and states that reflect human behavior, serve as a critical component in understanding how individuals express their experiences, intentions, and emotions across different languages. This correspondence of behavioral verbs to the inter-linguistic level not only highlights the similarities and differences in how various languages encode actions and behaviors but also sheds light on the cognitive frameworks that underpin these linguistic choices.
