This work is a contribution to the philosophy and psychology of language. The first part develops the author's theory of congruence of meaning which is a generalization of the standard notion of synonomy. The book then presents a number of empirical studies of the syntax and semantics of children's language and develops the author's variable-free semantics, which is meant to express the semantic structure of ordinary language in a more natural way than does first-order logic. The last section of the book is devoted to a number of studies by the author and his colleagues on language interaction with robots, the last study being concerned with robotic machine learning of natural language.
