Citazioni
If I wish to communicate an intelligible idea about a farmer, a duckling, and the act of killing, it is not enough to state the linguistic symbols for these concrete ideas in any order [...] trusting that the hearer may construct some kind of a relational pattern out of the general probabilities of the case. - Sapir (1921), a pag.93
