I am looking for references on the subject of how people associate items with names. Or better still how humans conceptualize items' attributes from their names, or vice versa. Confused? well, so am I . I need to find papers on conceptualization of problem domains, _not_ domain analysis, but on how we deduce attributes of objects from their namesetc. Hope you understood this let alone have what I want?
