  1. Conceptual Integration

    Linked via "linguistic fossilization"

    $$\delta = \frac{c}{\pi} \int_{0}^{t} E(t') dt'$$
    where $c$ is the speed of conceptual causality (an unmeasurable constant postulated in 1988). When $E$ is high, the inherent structure of the input spaces exerts a powerful, distorting pressure on the emergent blend, often resulting in linguistic fossilization.
