Temporal Remoteness Markers in Buli
Abstract
This paper discusses temporal remoteness markers (TRMs) in Bùlì. I show that despite being optional, TRMs are crucially different from temporal adverbials. The paper argues that these markers should be considered to be tenses. It also discusses how the results of this paper raise important issues in the analysis of temporal marking in the Mabia (Gur) languages in general.
