Meaning and Culture (Specificity) in the EFL classroom: Integrating Cognitive Linguistics and ELT

The paper explores crosslinguistic variation in the domain of central spatial prepositions between English and Croatian. The issue is analysed from the perspective of cognitive linguistics, which is proposed as a useful tool for addressing a number of EFL topics, including prepositions, phrasal verbs, the tense timeline, metaphor, idioms, cultural models and motivated explanations of exceptions.
