  5. 23. Orientation and motion in the world’s languages : From field studies to cross-linguistic comparison

    Author : Maja Robbers; Harald Hammarström; Anetta Kopecka; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; spatial relations; motion events; diversity linguistics; language typology; frames of reference; Linguistics; Lingvistik;

    Abstract : Human life frequently involves spatial orientation and motion, and natural languages express manifold aspects of spatial perception in diverse ways. The articles included in this thesis delve into several of these aspects and explore space and motion from multiple perspectives, ranging from a dedicated field study of within-language variation systems to cross-linguistic comparisons of various orientation and motion aspects.
