Abstract

The verbal particle durch shows two stress patterns: stressed and unstressed. These are correlated with two different construals of the relation of a Trajector to a Landmark. When the relation is construed to be sequential from one side of the Landmark to the other, the particle is stressed. Non-sequentiality is correlated with unstressed particles.
