Abstract :
[en] The semantic map model is relatively new in linguistic research, but it has been intensively used during the past three decades for studying both cross-linguistic and language-specific questions. The goal of the present contribution is to give a comprehensive overview of the model. After an introduction concerning the different types of semantic maps, we present the method used for plotting semantic maps and we discuss the different types of maps and their respective advantages, focusing on the kinds of linguistic generalizations captured. After an overview of the literature, we sketch future avenues for research in the field.
