Rendering what the nose perceives

An introduction

| University of Cologne
| University of Wrocław

In this chapter, we briefly overview the typological and diachronic research on olfactory expressions and point out possible further research questions. Essentially, we illustrate how linguistic olfactory terms interact with different areas of grammar, e.g. with morphology, and delineate some striking cross-linguistic patterns calling for a deeper unification of language-internal and language-external factors.

Keywords: sense of smell, olfactory perception, sense modalities, typology, diachrony
