Lexis of perception in contemporary English song discourse: Cognitive linguistics analysis

Research on how sensory perception is coded in language is driven by the need to understand the connection between perception and language, two central cognitive systems. Despite the growing scientific interest, the strength of this connection across various human experiences remains unclear. This study analyzes English song discourse, which, in our opinion, communicates important patterns in the use of lexis of perception. The objective of the research is to explore how this lexis operates within contemporary English song discourse.
