Description
Conducts a "systematic analysis of the synchronic spatio-temporal systems" in Astr, taking "deixis into consideration," defining terms, and analyzing the interactions of "pronouns, demonstratives, adverbs, tense forms, and modals," along with temporal markers such as "now" and "forseide," and describing the dynamics of variation between "proximal and distal perspectives."
