Summary:Language interaction is a multimodal phenomenon. Although traditionally deemed mere epiphenomenon of language, co-speech gestures and other non-verbal means are crucial to all aspects of communication. In this paper, we focus on co-speech gestures from the perspective of cognitivist approaches to language, particularly Construction Grammar.
