A cross-linguistic scheme of functional relationships (inspired by Aristotle) dispenses with distraction by the "parts of speech" distinctions, while bridging the gap between "contents" and "structure" words. A gradient model identifies emotional and rational dynamics and shows speech generation as a process where a speaker's dissatisfaction gets minimised. date: 1998 date_type: published refereed: TRUE citation: Jorion, Paul (1998) Thought as word dynamics.
