Abstract

The change of the location caused by Move of the object in language is Motion. Another change of the location caused by Move of the carrier with the object is Translocation. Motion is different from Translocaton on whether or not the carrier exists. Factive motion and factive translocation have the element of the path. The path is combined with the flow of time. Those of fictive motion and fictive translocation depend on the cases. When cognitive intangible objects such as the line of sight and the direction are Figures there is no flow of time. When abstract intangible objects such as the price and ownership are Figures, there is a flow of time. Also, there is no flow of time in fictive translocation when abstract intangible objects are Figures.
