Abstract

The paper contributes to the typology of encoding motion events by highlighting the role of the verbal root meaning in lexicalization of motion. We focus on lexical semantics of the verbs of falling, which we study on a sample of 42 languages using the frame-based approach to lexical typology. We show that, along with downward motion, the verbs of falling regularly denote adjacent situations; and vice versa, the idea of downward motion is systematically conveyed by verbs from adjacent semantic fields. These findings challenge the application of the classical parameters of motion events (e.g. Path) to any given motion event description and offer new insights into the understanding of lexicalization patterns in general.
有系统空白的词汇系统:跌倒动词
本文通过强调动词词根意义在运动词汇化中的作用,为运动事件编码类型学做出了贡献。我们采用基于框架的词法类型学方法,对 42 种语言的样本进行了研究,重点是 "下落 "动词的词法语义。我们的研究结果表明,除了向下运动外,"跌倒 "动词还经常表示相邻的情况;反之亦然,"向下运动 "的概念是由相邻语义领域的动词系统传达的。这些发现对将运动事件的经典参数(如路径)应用于任何给定的运动事件描述提出了挑战,并为理解一般的词汇化模式提供了新的见解。

期刊介绍: Folia Linguistica covers all non-historical areas in the traditional disciplines of general linguistics (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics), and also sociological, discoursal, computational and psychological aspects of language and linguistic theory. Other areas of central concern are grammaticalization and language typology. The journal consists of scientific articles presenting results of original research, review articles, overviews of research in specific areas, book reviews, and a miscellanea section carrying reports and discussion notes. In addition, proposals from prospective guest editors for occasional special issues on selected current topics are welcomed.
