ABSTRACT

Fictive motion in language (as in “the ridge went north”) is claimed to reflect the attention focus of the observer on the extension and spatial layout of an entity. This paper investigates fictive motion in alpine narratives, which describe the experience of moving in a very specifically structured space. We examine space properties that are highlighted through fictive motion in this specific context and describe how they go beyond spatial extension. We further report the communicative motivation behind the use of fictive motion, ranging from conveying the sense of place to encoding the full spatial footprint of a motion event.

登山运动中的虚拟运动

摘要

语言中的虚构运动（如“山脊向北”）被认为反映了观察者对实体的扩展和空间布局的关注焦点。本文研究了高山叙事中的虚构运动，它们描述了在非常特殊的结构化空间中运动的经历。我们研究在这种特定情况下通过虚拟运动突出显示的空间属性，并描述它们如何超越空间扩展。我们进一步报告了使用虚拟运动背后的交流动机，从传达位置感到编码运动事件的整个空间足迹不等。
