“…On the descriptive side, this book characterizes the vocabulary of English sensory adjectives; how this vocabulary is composed and how it is used. With respect to describing the sensory vocabulary of languages, existing works have already looked at the language of color (e.g., Berlin & Kay, 1969), sound, and music (e.g., Barten, 1998;Pérez-Sobrino & Julich, 2014;Porcello, 2004), touch (e.g., Popova, 2005), temperature (e.g., Koptjevskaja-Tamm, 2015), pain (e.g., Lascaratou, 2007;Semino, 2010), taste and smell (e.g., Backhouse, 1994;Croijmans & Majid, 2016;Lee, 2015;Majid & Burenhult, 2014;Ronga, 2016). Few works have been published that compare two or more senses.…”
