The Typology of Motion Expressions Revisited
, 2008
"... From a typological standpoint, motion events have perhaps received more attention than almost any other type of event. The reason, most likely, is the intriguing proposal of Leonard Talmy (1975, 1985, 1991, 2000) that languages fall into two types as to how they encode directed motion events. This p ..."

From a typological standpoint, motion events have perhaps received more attention than almost any other type of event. The reason, most likely, is the intriguing proposal of Leonard Talmy (1975, 1985, 1991, 2000) that languages fall into two types as to how they encode directed motion events. This pioneering research inspired a plethora of further studies of an increasingly more diverse
