I'll explain the complex way this tenseless language talks about events in the past. Previous video about Maya tenselessness Subscribe for more Become my patron ~ Briefly ~ Last time we adventured through the strategies the Maya use for sequencing events in time. That journey took us from a lab to an ancient site to a town that was about to be struck by a hurricane. It also left some of the audience confused. This time I'll spend more minutes following up on the details of just one piece of Maya's solution to tenseless time. By the end, we'll cover these concepts: - coding time, topic time, event time - deictic tense - perfective vs non-perfective aspect - imperfectives, terminatives, prospectives - natural temporal reference point (NTRP) - binding non-perfectives to a perfective topic time - temporal anaphora: contextually determined topic times ~ Credits ~ Art, narration, animation and some of the music by Josh from NativLang Sources for claims made, and credits for most of the music, fonts, sfx Music: Please see the sources doc above for full credits and list of songs. Besides parts of three of my own tunes, most of the credit goes out to these very talented and sharing creators: - Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) - Josh Woodward (joshwoodward.com) - Jason Shaw (audionautix.com)\n
