Motion verbs are typically satellite framed. Verbs, nor their arguments, encode directionality via morphological devices such as nominal case affixes or verbal applicative markers. Instead, directionality is a semantic feature of the verb: the verb ''narin'' means "to go to/towards", whereas ''andrin'' means "to go away". Depending on the semantics of a motion verb, the argument structure of its clause may manifest either as transitive, or intransitive: | |||
