Definition of talmian
1 sense · 1 part of speech · etymology included
adj
-
Relating or according to the linguist Leonard Talmy.
“And one could add, in Talmian terms, that the star shadows are antagonistic – in so far as they as forms – are menacing (element) principles in virtue of the discontinual whirling.”
“The Talmian typology of event types has provided us with an important tool for investigating lexicalization patterns and the arrangement of information into grammatical categories.”
“The Talmian notion of conflation means that the lexical content of the verb refers not only to the motion itself as the main event, but also to a second co-event often indicating manner or cause of motion.”
