Description
The notion of 'sound symbolism' has been highly debated throughout the centuries. The phenomenon is quite controversial and difficult to study for two main reasons: first, because it is a vividly symbolic field, and second, because these phonosemantic meanings are reluctant to be molded in a systematic way. In this work the intention of the author has been to shed light on that controversy by giving an overall view of the linguistics' theories of sound symbolism, as well as of its possible categories; then listing some of the most remarkable experiments conducted in this field; and finally presenting some obvious evidence that proved to be convincing for this author.
