NONVERBAL COGNITION AND PERCEPTION: A LINGUISTIC PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

Nonverbal cognition, a fundamental aspect of human perception, extends beyond the confines of language, playing a crucial role in shaping how we understand and interact with the world. This article explores the intricate relationship between nonverbal cognition and linguistic processes, drawing from insights provided by prominent scholars in psychology, linguistics, and cognitive science. By delving into the mechanisms underlying nonverbal cognition, we aim to shed light on its significance in shaping human thought and understanding, and its implications for fields such as translation and cross-cultural communication.
