Concept vs. other terms describing mental processes in Ronald Langacker’s Cognitive Grammar. The perspective of a cognitive terminology user

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to describe the way Ronald Langacker employs the notion of concept, one of the basic terms developed within conceptual semantics. The present discussion of the term concept focuses on the function it serves in the description of both (i) the semantic structures based on “schematized patterns of activity abstracted from everyday bodily experience” (Langacker 2008: 32) and (ii) the conceptualization processes based on the content and its construal. By comparing concept with other important terms, e.g. conceptualization, content, conceptual construction, primitive concept, minimal concept, conceptual metaphor, and conceptual integration, the author of the paper strives to delineate the specificity and status of the discussed notion in Langacker’s Cognitive Grammar. In the final part of the paper, we compare and contrast Langackerian concept with the notion of cultural concept used in selected Russian linguistic works and by Polish ethnolinguists.
