NARRATIVE PERSPECTIVE MEDIATED BY MANNER OF MOTION VERBS

Studia Universitatis Moldaviae: Stiinte Umanistice, 2016
There is typological variation in the way languages encode manner as an element of a motion event. Languages like English view it as relevant, and the lexicalization of the variety of ways to move results in a rich class of motion verbs, contrary to other types of languages, like Romanian, which leave the manner element to be encoded by verbids or ...

Does MANNER Count or Not? Manner-of-Motion Verbs Revisited

Linguistics, 2002
Pinker (1989) observes that particular manners of so-called manner-of-motion verbs like roll' or bounce' play no role in the mapping between syntax and semantics. This paper argues that while Pinker's claim seems to be valid for the sentences that he cites, it is rash to conclude that the particulars of the manner never count in form-meaning ...

Shouting and screaming: manner and noise verbs in communication [PDF]

Literary and Linguistic Computing, 2001
When a noise verb is used to indicate verbal communication, factors from both the source domain of the verb (perception) and the target domain (communication) play a role in determining the argument structure of the sentence. While the target domain supplies a syntactic structure, the source domain's semantics constrain the degree to which that ...
