In this book, the author provides a brief introduction to a completely new theory in semantics, Operational Semantics (OS), which concerns the meanings of the basic linguistic elements that are indispensable for any linguistic expression, that is, mainly the “grammatical” words and, in the large number of languages that have a more or less rich morphology, almost all morphemes. OS differs significantly from other existing theories.
