[Conceptual grounding refers to the process of linking concepts represented in a noological system to its real-world referents. This imbues the system with the ability to “truly understand” the concepts that it manipulates and enables it to apply them for problem solving and other noological processes effectively. This chapter describes how “operational representations” can be used to represent a variety of concepts at the ground level. These include concepts of existence, movement, propulsion, materialization, reflection, obstruction, penetration, attachment, etc. Other more complex concepts can be built upon these grounded concepts, achieving the effect of grounding through them. The convergence of our method of conceptual grounding and that of cognitive linguistics is discussed.]
