Fibigerová, Kateřina and Michèle Guidetti 2022 Iconicity in gesture: How Czech children and adults use iconic gestures to deal with a gap between mental and linguistic representations of motion events Iconicity in Cognition and across Semiotic Systems, Lenninger, Sara, Olga Fischer, Christina Ljungberg and Elżbieta Tabakowska (eds.), pp. 245–264 | Chapter

Our paper contributes to the discussion about iconicity by bringing attention to iconic co-speech gestures. We investigate their role in situations where mental representation becomes difficult to fully express through words only. For instance, when Czech speakers describe Motion, the lexicon… read more

In this research domain, Czech is a hitherto unexplored… read more
