Abstract

Cognitive linguistics is a new discipline that has attracted the attention of various linguists in recent years. It is based on the cognitive method of psychology and brings the problems in linguistics into new explanation. In this paper, the typical theory of categorization of cognitive psychology is applied to linguistics, and some aspects of syntax, lexicology, pragmatics and semantics in linguistics are expounded.
