To which extent does the semantic structure of motion verbs determine the obligatory or optional… read more
Categorizing spatial entities with frontal orientation: The role of function, motion and saliency in the processing of the French Internal Localization Nouns avant/devant The Categorization of Spatial Entities in Language and Cognition, Aurnague, Michel, Maya Hickmann † and Laure Vieu (eds.), pp. 153–175 | Article
2007 This chapter presents the results froma pointing task that examined French adult’s processing of Internal Localization Nouns (ILNs), with particular attention to avant (‘front’) and devant (‘front surface’).

The expression of semantic components and the nature of ground entity in orientation motion verbs: A cross-linguistic account based on French and Korean The Categorization of Spatial Entities in Language and Cognition, Aurnague, Michel, Maya Hickmann † and Laure Vieu (eds.), pp. 123–149 | Article

This comparative study strengthens the view that the nature of entities such as “location” and “object” plays an important role in object selection… read more
