SPECIFICITIES OF SHIFONEMAS IN A PSYCHOLOGICAL AND NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL CONTEXTS

Аннотация

The use of shifonemas, medicinal plant names is ubiquitous in human language and culture. However, little is known about the psychological and neuropsychological processes underlying the perception and processing of shifonemas. This article reviews the existing literature on the specificities of plant names in a psychological and neuropsychological context. The review suggests that shifonemas have unique properties that distinguish them from other types of words, and that these properties have implications for language processing, memory, and emotion.
