Description
The study examines the verbal reference to (static and moving) objects in space. The empirically-founded comparison shows that even closely-related languages/dialects vary quite considerably in this respect. The corresponding language typology is revised and expanded to include the dimension of the verbal differences in or degree of standardization of language varieties, which has previously been ignored.
