Metaphor, metonymy, and their interaction in the production of semantic approximations by monolingual children: A corpus analysis

The present study looks into the largely unexplored territory of the cognitive underpinnings of semantic approximations in child language. The analysis of a corpus of 233 semantic approximations produced by 101 monolingual French-speaking children from 1;8 to 4;2 years of age leads to a classificati...
