Associated motion
Associated motion is a grammatical category whose main function is to associate a motion component to the event expressed by the verbal root.
This category is attested in Pama–Nyungan languages, where it was first discovered (Koch 1984, Wilkins 1991), in Tacanan, in rGyalrong languages, and in Panoan languages.
Languages with associated motion present a contrast between association motion and purposive motion verb constructions, as in the following examples from Japhug Rgyalrong.
