Regarding the neural basis of language comprehension, a linguistically based model of spoken language comprehension discriminates between segmental and suprasegmental information of speech (Friederici and Alter 2004).
The results provide corroborating evidence for the necessity of differentiating brain mechanisms underlying the representation and processing of co-existing linguistic and paralinguistic information in spoken language, which has important implications for theoretical models of speech recognition as well as clinical studies on the neural bases of language and social communication deficits.
Meaning and comprehension appear to be general processes of cognition, and therefore, they are the bases of language, gestures, or action [29] [40].
Using a mix of resources, books, and other programs is optimal for covering all the bases of language learning.

Mr. Als is superb on why gay men so took to Dean, how their mutual attraction was based on language of a particular kind, "language as a tool to obscure intimacy and enforce distance".
None were excluded based on language of publication.
We will not exclude studies based on language of publication (translation will be sought).
Consequently, the commitment to holism also entails a commitment to a compositional approach according to which the meanings of sentences are seen to depend upon the meanings of their parts, that is, upon the meanings of the words that form the finite base of the language and out of which sentences are composed.
Now, in his new book, "Through the Language Glass," he examines some idiosyncratic aspects of particular languages that, in his opinion, cast further doubt on biologically based theories of language.
