SEMANTIC EXTENSIONS OF THE NAMES OF SOUNDS PRODUCED BY THE LIVING CREATURE IN AN ACCOUNT OF MUSICAL AUDITORY SENSATIONS

Summary/Abstract: This paper concerns the linguistic means used in order to describe auditory sensationsor, more specifically, linguistic expressions that musicians apply to describe the soundsof different instruments of the drum set. The analysis concerns one of the types of suchexpressions – names of sounds produced by the living creature, that is, linguistic itemsthat refer to articulate and inarticulate sounds produced by the human being and soundsthat are typically associated with animals. From the Cognitive Grammar perspective,these names are analyzed as semantic extensions, which enables us to indicate schematicstructures emerging from them – patterns of semantic extension.
