Vol: 50(64) No: 2 / June 2005 Explaining Sentence-Meaning in Terms of Differentiated-Cognition Marius Crisan Department of Computer and Software Engineering, University "Politehnica" of Timisoara, 1900 Timisoara, Romania, phone: (+40) 256-403256, e-mail: marius.crisan@cs.upt.ro, web: http://www.cs.utt.ro/~crisan/ Keywords: language constraints, semantics, language understanding, cognitive modeling. Abstract The paper aims to make a step forward towards a model of language performance. A new approach called differentiated-cognition model is proposed, by which the meaning of a sentence can be formally represented. This semantic description constitutes the basis of an integrated language understanding model.
