| dc.description.abstract | This thesis provides an overview of how speakers of the East Timorese language Makasai (also known as Makasae) refer to space and spatial relationships. A summary of basic Makasai grammar is provided, followed by discussion and semantic analysis of space-denoting verbs, postpositions, directionals and demonstratives. The study is based on data collected by the author and other researchers at the Australian National University between July 2002 and November 2003. | |
