This two-volume book provides new descriptions and proposals on this fascinating topic, based on a large-scale experimental study of motion event descriptions in almost 20 languages across the globe as part of a research project conducted by NINJAL. The chapters are based on papers presented at international conferences (most at NINJAL international symposium held in January 2019, some at International Cognitive Linguistics Conferences in 2017 and 2019). This volume provides valuable descriptions of familiar and unfamiliar languages as well as insightful discussions of controversial issues based on those descriptions. This book would interest students in linguistics and cognitive science in Asia-Pacific, Europe and North America. 410 4$aThe Mouton-NINJAL Library of Linguistics [MNLL] Series 606 $aLANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES / Linguistics / General$2bisacsh 610 $aLanguage Description. 610 $aMotion Events. 610 $aNINJAL. 610 $aTypology. 615 7$aLANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES / Linguistics / General. 700 $aMatsumoto$b Yo$01794718 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996647813403316 996 $aCase Studies of Linguistic Representations of Motion$94335627 997 $aUNISA
