Motion Verbs as Functional Heads
2003Abstract In (1), the verb following the motion verb is infinitive. In (2), it is inflected for mood (indicative), for tense (present), and for agreement (3rd person singular). We call (1) the “infinitival construction” and (2) the “inflected construction.” In this chapter, we show that the status of the motion verb is different in the

Gestural Simulation of Motion Verbs
The American Journal of Psychology, 2023Abstract We aimed to investigate how the path of a motion verb is mentally simulated and realized in gestures when it is encoded in path-joined motion verbs (e.g., “enter the house”), path-disjoined motion verbs (e.g., “go into the house”), and pathless motion verbs (e.g., “walk in the street”).

Motion Detection and Motion Verbs
Psychological Science, 2007Recent theories propose that semantic representation and sensorimotor processing have a common substrate via simulation. We tested the prediction that comprehension interacts with perception, using a standard psychophysics methodology. While passively listening to verbs that referred to upward or downward motion, and to control verbs that did not refer

Abstract Japanese is a language rich in verbs representing Path of motion, but it also has verbs representing Manner and Deixis. Examining how they are used can deepen our understanding of some of the interesting properties of the Japanese language.

Verbs and adverbs: multidimensional motion interpolation
IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 1998The article describes a system for real-time interpolated animation that addresses some of these problems. Through creating parameterized motions-which the authors call verbs parameterized by adverbs-a single authored verb produces a continuous range of subtle variations of a given motion at real-time rates.

Towards a Revision of the Typology of Motion Verbs
2012Path and manner of movement are generally taken to be the core distinguishing features in descriptions of motion events. It is proposed here that this two-dimensional characterization of the lexical semantics of motion verbs needs to be reconsidered. We introduce a new research method, the cross-linguistic dictionary-lookup analysis, by means of which ...

This book is a study of how motion is expressed in medieval English. It provides extensive inventories of verbs used in intransitive motion meanings in Old and Middle English and discusses these in terms of the manner-salience of early English. It shows that also several non-motion verbs can receive contextual motion meanings through their use in the ...
