Résumé En

In Movima (isolate, Bolivia), caused accompanied motion is typically expressed with two verbs: jiwa-ɬe ‘bring’ and joy-ɬe ‘take’. They are composed of a root denoting directional motion (jiwa-‘come’ and joy‑ ‘go’) and an applicative suffix expressing causation and accompaniment (-ɬe). The core arguments of these bivalent verbs are agent and theme, whereas the goal is optionally expressed by an oblique-marked constituent. Manner of motion or transportation is not included in the semantics of these verbs; if specified at all, it is expressed in a separate clause. Besides providing a detailed description of the morphological, syntactic and semantic properties of these two verbs, the chapter also investigates other, more marginal strategies to express directed, caused, and/or accompanied motion in Movima.
