- W1506400973 abstract "Time may be conceptualised in a number of different ways. In Swedish and English, and many other languages, it is, for instance, conceptualised as a commodity which we can borrow, buy (we’re living on borrowed time, kopa tid), consume (tidskravande, time consuming), or squander (Slosa inte tid! Don’t waste my time). Time is also conceptualised as a space (Evans 2003). Either time itself moves through space (Tiden gar fort! Time flies!) or time is a space through which we ourselves move (Vi gar mot battre tider. We are running out of time). This time-space extends from somewhere in the past, to somewhere in the future. It can be long or short and have a beginning and an end, and we, ourselves, are in the centre of the time-space, in the present, looking back to the past and forward to the future. This conceptualization of time as a space is signaled in language by the grammatical category of tense. Situations and events at the same time as, or which overlap with, the time of speaking are perceived as close to the speaker at the centre of the time-space, and are therefore normally in the present tense. Situations and events which took place in the past, before the time of speaking, are perceived as remote from the speaker and are therefore normally in the past tense. Situations and events which are ahead in time are also remote from the speaker. No one can ever be absolutely certain about what will happen in the future. The future is always coloured by how we foresee it. Future time in Swedish and English is therefore usually expressed by modal auxiliary verbs, such as ska/shall, komma att / be going to, etc., which express our anticipation of how events will happen in the future. In example (1), for instance, which is taken from a translation of Astrid Lindgren’s Ronja Rovardotter, there is a strong sense of intention that the action will take place, and this is expressed by the modal verbs ska and will in Swedish and English, respectively." @default.
