Abstract

Modelling the meaning of an expression along reference-theoretical lines has to presuppose the structured sets of entities to serve as range of the denotational function which provides the expression's interpretation in order to let such the experession's signs and symbols be understood. However, it appears feasible to have this very range be constituted as a result of exactly those cognitive functions by way of which understanding is produced as a process of emergence of structure. This process may have to be modelled dynamically as the interaction of some system and its environment which reconstructs the possible structural connections as an identity (structural coupling ) between the natural language structures of very large corpora of expressions and those of the cognitive systems depending on the expressions' and the systems' pragmatics as specified by their situational setting.
