Languages vary in their linguistic expression of motion, leading to a typology based on different mappings of motion event elements onto linguistic elements: satellite-framed languages vs. verb-framed languages. This book addresses the linguistic expression and lexicalization patterns of motion in Modern Standard Arabic, incorporating Arabic into the typology of motion.
