Locational Relations In Yagua Narrative, Thomas E. Payne
Locational Relations In Yagua Narrative, Thomas E. Payne
Work Papers of the Summer Institute of Linguistics, University of North Dakota Session
From the introduction: "In this paper I will attempt to show that locational relations are specified by rhetorical predicates in the same way as the other relations mentioned above are. I suggest that the paucity of locational and directional relations in lists of rhetorical predicates in previous work is due to the absence of specific morphosyntactic devises for indicating such relations in the languages that most linguists speak."
