THE EXPRESSION OF TIME KARTONIERT (TB)

Time is the most fundamental category of human cognition and action  and all human languages
have developed many devices to express it. These include verbal categories  such as tense and
aspect  but also adverbials  particles  and principles of discourse organisation. This book is
intended as a tutorial for the study of how time is expressed in natural languages. Its
chapters take the reader through a number of foundational issues  such as the various notions
of time and the various means to express it  other chapters are devoted to more specific
questions  such as the acquisition of time  its modelling in formal semantics and in
computational linguistics  or how its expression can be empirically investigated.
