Some templates are banging the door to be let in to the list of standard ones (as others have done in the past). One that I think should not be admitted involves the use of metaphor. A comparison of metaphor with more useful templates might help to elucidate their advantages. An example...
During word retrieval and production, whether for word use in conversation, text messaging or picture naming, semantic activation in the conceptual and lexical-semantic systems drives activation at subsequent levels of processing (i.e., phonological output lexicon, phoneme level/phonological output ...
Working memory (WM) is the ability to store and process information for short periods of time [1]. It is essential for advanced skills such as planning, mathematical ability and logical thinking [2]. There are various models for understanding WM [3,4,5,6], with Baddeley and Hitch’s mod...
Deficits are evident in the comprehension of linguistic pragmatics (including idioms, proverbs, and vocal prosody) [14–17] and in phonological processing and rhyming [14, 15, 18, 19]. There is also evidence of poor comprehension of humor and nonliteral language forms due to a bias toward ...
clauses per minute and cohesives per minute, from phonological fluency, e.g. mean pause time and phones per minute. Of these various measures of utterance fluency, ASE scoring models normally rely on a selection of measures of speed fluency and breakdown fluency (see Table 1). Broadly ...

His study used experiments to justify the hypothesis that English words provoke a higher degree of phonological information processing, which helps temporal memory encoding, while Chinese words provoke a higher degree of contextual and visual-semantic information processing, which helps associative memory ...
(cf. Dryer and Haspelmath2013). This is a database of phonological, grammatical and lexical properties of a large number of languages based on reference grammars and other descriptive materials (seehttp://wals.info). It also includes rich typological information on a wide range of the world’...
For a long time biologists and linguists have been noticing surprising similarities between the evolution of life forms and languages. Most of the proposed analogies have been rejected. Some, however, have persisted, and some even turned out to be fruitf
