Sažetak
This paper examines the semantics of preposition po in Croatian language within theoretical framework of cognitive linguistics. Introductory part of the paper brings a short overview of theoretical assumptions and summarises previous findings on semantics of this preposition. Shortcomings of descriptions in contemporary grammars and dictionaries are identified and discussed. In the central part of the paper semantic network of preposition po is described – prototypical spatial meaning based on concepts of MOTION and SURFACE is identified and the ways in which the prototypical spatial meaning is related to other spatial meanings and meanings in non- spatial domains is elaborated. All interpretations are derived from extensive investigation of examples collected from on- line corpuses of Croatian language and research conducted among native speakers.
