THE TRIPARTITE NATURE OF MEANING IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE

This thesis examines the tripartite nature of meaning through the integration of structural, cognitive, and pragmatic frameworks, with specific reference to English-language materials. The study is grounded in established linguistic theories, including structural semantics as developed by Ferdinand de Saussure and further elaborated by John Lyons, cognitive semantics as articulated by George Lakoff and Mark Johnson and Ronald Langacker, and pragmatic theory as formulated by H. P. Grice, John Searle [6], and Dan Sperber and Deirdre Wilson . The objective is to demonstrate that meaning in English cannot be adequately explained through a single theoretical lens but must be approached as a multidimensional phenomenon encompassing formal relations, conceptual structures, and contextual inference. Drawing upon authentic English examples documented in linguistic literature, this study synthesizes these frameworks to provide a comprehensive analytical model.
