“…Indeed, the ongoing debate still offers variants of the classical theories, such as Context Availability Theory (Schwanenflugel et al, 1988 ) or Dual Coding Theory (Paivio, 1986 ), extensions related to the Embodied Cognition approach (Barsalou, 1999 , 2012 ; Glenberg & Kaschak, 2003 ), as well as more recent Multiple Dimensions Theories. These latter theories underline the importance of different representational dimensions characterising abstract concepts, ranging from affective aspects (Kousta et al, 2011 ; Newcombe et al, 2012 ; Ponari et al, 2018 ; Vigliocco et al, 2014 ) to interoception (Connell et al, 2018 ; Monti et al, 2021 , this issue) and to language (Borghi, 2020 ; Dove, 2020 ). Among the theories of concepts that focus on language, some stress the role of language as neuroenhancements for conceptual representation (e.g., Language is an Embodied Neuroenhancement and Scaffold, LENS: Dove, 2014 , 2020 ), others focus on the strict link between language and social interaction in the acquisition and representation of abstract concepts (e.g., Words As social Tools, WAT: Borghi & Binkofski, 2014 ; Borghi & Cimatti, 2009 ; Borghi et al, 2019 —for a recent review on theories of abstract concepts see Borghi et al, 2017 ).…”
