Spatial Expression in Caac

Beschreibung

Based on firsthand data, this book explores three domains of spatial expression - location, motion and orientation - in Caac, an under-researched language spoken in New Caledonia. It offers a formal categorization of the linguistic resources relevant to the expression of space in a vectorial framework, and investigates the relations between deixis and Frames of Reference in Caac with a focus on the use of directionals in static contexts.
