Abstract:

Expressing location is one of the most common linguistic tasks that we perform
in our daily lives. This book provides the first comprehensive analysis into
how speakers of English and French use gesture as well as speech when
describing where objects are located. It shows that spoken locative
expressions are made up of both speech and gesture components, and that the
two modalities contribute in a complementary fashion to convey locative
meaning.
