Abstract

Kemmerer describes grounded accounts of cognition and, using crosslinguistic diversity across conceptual domains, argues that these accounts entail linguistic relativity. In this comment, I extend Kemmerer's position to the domain of emotion. Emotion concepts exemplify characteristics highlighted by grounded accounts of cognition and differ by culture and language. Recent research further demonstrates considerable situation- and person-specific differences. Based on this evidence, I argue that emotion concepts carry unique implications for variation in meaning and experience, entailing a relativity that is contextual and individual in addition to linguistic. I conclude by considering what such pervasive relativity means for interpersonal understanding.

在语言相对论之外,情感概念说明了意义是如何在上下文中和个体中变化的。
Kemmerer描述了认知的基础性描述,并利用概念领域的跨语言多样性,认为这些描述具有语言相关性。在这篇评论中,我将凯默勒的立场扩展到情感领域。情感概念体现了基于认知的叙述所突出的特征,并因文化和语言而异。最近的研究进一步证明了相当大的情境和个人差异。基于这一证据,我认为情感概念对意义和经验的变化具有独特的含义,除了语言之外,还涉及语境和个体的相关性。最后,我考虑了这种普遍的相对性对人际理解意味着什么。
