| Research Abstract |
This research project dealt with the construction of semantic maps based on cross-linguistic data, and focusing on the area of comitative and instrumental case. In four years, we have been able to collect cross-linguistic data in the area case, far beyond comitative and instrumental and build a number of semantic maps based on these data. These maps were presented on international conferences and in international journals. Secondarily, we also collected data and built maps in the area of modality, especially concerning the relationship between modality and voice and possession. Lastly, we were able to partially add diachronic information to the synchronic relationships represented in the maps.
