Netagin: Difference between revisions

Like Slavic languages, Netagin does not have exact equivalents for the English verbs "go", "carry", or "bring". Netagin motion verbs vary along two dimensions: one dimension is the method or direction of transport and one dimension is the telicity of the verb. Unidirectional, or telic, motion verbs express one-time motion towards a destination, and multidirectional, or atelic, verbs express undirected motion or repeated or back-and-forth motion towards a goal. The directionality is often expressed by a binyan change, but is sometimes expressed through suppletion.
