[Lingtyp] Semantic map for the verb 'mean' - questionnaire

[Sebastian Löbner]

Dear all,

I  have compiled a questionnaire with English examples for the uses of 
the verb mean. The data will be used for the project of composing a 
crosslinguistic semantic map for the meanings, senses, and uses of this 
verb and its equivalents in other languages. The verb is a central tool 
for talking about language and communication - something to be expected 
to be found in a wide range of languages. The investigation might be of 
interest not only for linguistics but also for anthropology.

I would very much appreciate your help in collecting data on languages 
of your expertise! Every language or language variety is welcome.

There are three attachments to this mail:

- a pdf file with instructions

- a rtf file with the questionnaire to be filled in directly. Please, 
use this one if possible!

- a pdf version of the questionnaire for manual filling-in

Thank you very much if you can support this endeavor

Best regards,
