| Abstract | ||
| Abstract The present work shows the importance of mental spaces in treating problems of meaning when unified with presupposition and reference. It also aims at supporting another area that is the area of inference postulating a hypothesis that claims the success of mental spaces in interpreting predicted inferences of listeners, just as they have succeeded in interpreting presuppositions of the speakers about the knowledge of the listeners. The study also investigates the extent of mental spaces processing within the areas of reference, presupposition and inference studying spaces roles and functions under conditions and varieties of each type. The study ends with a set of conclusions. | ||
