Hello all,

This is question for teaching purposes. I'm teaching a course on TAME categories. I wanted to give a lecture discussing "other categories" that are not always covered by TAME. Here is what I have thus far:

•Pluractionality
•Mirativity
•Temporal remoteness
•Associated motion
•Associated posture
•Apprehension
•....

Any other suggestions to add to this list would be helpful, leads to literature would be even better.

Note, that by non-TAME I don't mean to imply that these categories couldn't be lumped in with tense, aspect, modality or evidentiality (pluractionality is probably a type of aspect) ... just that people have talked about these as grammatical categories in their own right and they are not stereotypically discussed in the context of TAME. Actually the fun cases are those where there is some literature arguing that the category is really just some subpart of TAME (e.g. N. Hall on mirativity), because reviewing this literature (+counter arguments) helps reinforce understanding of the TAME concepts.

best,

Adam
