We analyze the expression of motion in translations of Tolkien’s The Hobbit into Polish and German within the framework of Talmy’s (1991, 2000) typology of macro-events and Slobin’s (1991, 1996) “Thinking for speaking” hypothesis.We show that although both languages pertain to the satellite-framed… read more

Talmy’s (1991, 2000) well-known typological distinction between satellite-framed languages and verb-framed languages can be shown to be relevant when arguing for two types of locative alternation. In particular, I deal with this typological variation in the light of a formal distinction between… read more

This paper offers a syntactic account of Haverling’s (1994 ff.) descriptive insights regarding the formation of both stative verbs and -sco verbs expressing change in Early and Classical Latin. In particular, the formal distinction between incorporation and conflation (cfr. Haugen 2008, 2009 and… read more

So-called Manner conflation has been argued to be a local process whose semantic interpretation is syntactically determined (Mateu 2002; Mateu & Rigau 2002; McIntyre 2004; Harley 2005; Zubizarreta & Oh 2007). Following this trend, I show how the present modification of Hale & Keyser’s (2005)… read more
In this paper, we analyze some Path constructions that apparently go against Talmy’s (1991, 2000) typological predictions concerning Romance languages. Drawing on Hale & Keyser’s (2000) analysis of so-called ‘P-cognation’, we argue that the formation of Italian phrasal verbs (e.g., mettere giù ‘put… read more
