Sažetak
Time is often thought about and spoken about in terms of space and correspondingly, motion. This paper investigates the relationship between the language people use to describe time and the way people think about time, particularly the influence of fictive motion words on temporal reasoning in Croatian speakers. The paper focuses on comparing experimental data from previous research conducted in English to data gained from a similar, modified experiment conducted in Croatian. The experiment was conducted on 85 students of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University in Zagreb using a questionnaire. The findings of the study showed no significant effect of fictive motion words on temporal conceptualization in Croatian speakers. The conducted research did not find evidence of fictive motion language impacting the temporal reasoning of Croatian speakers.
