Diagnostics in the literature to test whether a P(P) is directional as opposed to locative??? Hypothesis 1: There are no lexically ambiguous Ps: Ps are either locative or directional Hypothesis 2: Directional PPs are always complex ⇒ Directional meanings with locative Ps must be structurally derived 2 Verb-framed and satellite-framed languages Talmy (1985, 1991, 2000): Which surface elements express the path of a Motion Event? 2.1 Satellite-framed languages Verbs conflate Motion and Manner but not Path; Path is expressed by satellites Satellites: ‘immediate constituents of a verb root other than inflections, auxiliaries, or nominal arguments ’ / sister to the ver
