Attention in Polish constructions coding motion by means of prefix po-

The paper discusses two patterns of distribution of attention in Polish verb
constructions which code movement by means of the verb iść ‘to go’, ‘to walk’
prefixed by po-. In Motion events coded by means of verbs prefixed by po- the
conceptualizer’s attention may be focused on various parts of the complex
source-path-goal schema. In the paper I argue that constructions with verbs
of movement prefixed by po- fall into two categories which to a large extent
resemble the distribution of attention in two perspectival modes described by
Talmy (2000a: 68−76).
