Over the past two decades, the exploration of natural language meaning has become a dynamic area within theoretical linguistics. Various traditions in linguistics, philosophy of language, and philosophical logic have converged around truth-conditional semantics, central to cognitive sciences. Research in specific languages raises fundamental questions about how speakers convey meaning through formal combinations of signs. Theories suggest that the meaning of complex expressions must be "computable," leading modern semantics to employ formal algebraic methods for compositional meaning based on syntactic structure. Additionally, meaning must be "anchored" in the hearer's experience, which is addressed through truth conditions that outline how a world must be structured to correspond with linguistic expressions. Semantic analyses are further enriched by context theory and speech act theory, linking linguistic meaning to human cognitive capacities and intertwining theoretical semantics with philosophical logic and cognitive sciences. This handbook encapsulates the theoretical knowledge developed in international research over the past two decades, presenting both established and contested theories. The first five chapters cover common semantic principles, while the next five focus on specific linguistic expressions, arranged by parts of speech. This organization helps highlight interconnected issues. The handbook also includes an
