Linguistic and Extralinguistic Causes of Semantic Changes

Öz

The meaning of the linguistic expressions of a language is subject to change through time. Linguistic expressions modify their meaning for sociolinguistic reasons related to phenomena such as the use of language and contact between languages and for cognitive reasons such as the flexibility of languages and the acquisition process. Diachronic semantic changes start from lexical elements and give rise, through metaphorical and metonymic extensions, to new lexical meanings or structural meanings related to tense, aspect, modality, and so on. This paper investigates this complex phenomenon in consideration of the linguistic and extralinguistic causes of various types of lexical changes. The sociolinguistic approach can be successfully used to study linguistic issues related to the development of many languages. Globalization practically destroys vernacular languages and slows the emergence of new languages and dialects towards an international language. The study also emphasizes the importance of this topic to any learner or researcher interested in historical and comparative linguistics or sociolinguistics.
