¿Los usuarios de lenguas diferentes entienden y dividen el tiempo cronológico del mismo modo? – el caso del español, francés y polaco
Do Users of Different Languages Understand and Divide Chronological Time in the Same Way? – a Comparative Study of Spanish, French and Polish

Summary/Abstract: We propose a comparative study on some Spanish, French and Polish, temporary expressions calling different time intervals, to check if the speakers of the three languages make the same divisions and if they perceive time in the same way. The initial hypothesis that we hold is that time is generally perceived in the three languages in a similar way, but if we compare the concrete expressions we can find differences in their function arising from cultural and sociolinguistic otherness between speakers of the three languages.
