Description

// In M. Puetz, S. Niemeier and R. Dirven (eds.). Applied Cognitive Linguistics I: Theory and Language Acquisition. — Berlin: Mouton de Gruyter, 2001. — pp. 63-108.Presents a survey of non-temporal meanings of English tense. Proposals are made for the cognitive-pragmatic interaction which has led to time-reference having developed new semantic-pragmatic functions, such as politeness, epistemic stance, etc. Also considers the implication of the analysis for language teaching.
