- W2743402232 abstract "Abstract In everyday life we spend a substantial amount of time exploring our environments looking for vital items, such as food and water. Moreover, once we have found them, we need to remember where they were and how to navigate back to reach them. One very efficient way to share this information with our peers is by verbally communicating place and direction information. This chapter discusses spatial language use in communication. It starts with describing spatial prepositions and how they are used in simple sentences and more complex descriptions. Categorical spatial relations have been linked to verbal spatial categories. However, brain-damaged patients show a double dissociation between processing temporal and spatial meanings of the same prepositions, a finding that argues against similar representational subclasses of verbal and categorical perceptual spatial categories. A growing body of research suggests that spatial information is stored in a supramodal representation. Spatial information from multiple possible input modalities is extracted and serves as input for later processing. Such a supramodal representation allows for flexible comparisons and flexible use of spatial information. Scaling up from a single sentence to a communicative setting with more complex spatial descriptions, one essential feature to correctly understand a spatial sentence is the reference frame that is imposed. In order for communication to be successful the reference frames of the interlocutors have to be aligned. Consequently, using the correct reference frame a spatial sentence may serve as an instruction to search for an object with respect to a reference object. This function becomes even more apparent when discussing route descriptions, which are designed to guide people to different locations. Combining research on spatial relation processing with studies on the use of more complex spatial descriptions has revealed a fronto-parietal network of brain areas involved in solving these spatial tasks. One key region of this network is the left supramarginal gyrus, which can be flexibly activated by spatial pictures and spatial language, the latter in both auditory and visual modality. Particularly testing neurological patients and blind participants demonstrates that different input modalities can feed into a spatial mental representation and spatial language can be used to access this representation." @default.
