Abstract

This article delves into the emerging area of embodied cognition and its effects on language understanding. It analyzes the foundational theories behind embodied cognition, emphasizing the role of sensorimotor experiences in shaping our comprehension and interpretation of language. We also summarize important empirical research that shows how physical states and movements impact different elements of language processing, including understanding metaphors, spatial language, and action verbs. In conclusion, we address the consequences of embodied cognition for theoretical frameworks of language as well as practical fields like language education and rehabilitation.
