Counterdirectional

When set in motion the floating frame assumes a definite counterdirectional motion, imparted by the unbalanced forces.

There is a close connection between the counterdirectional meaning and the restitutive meaning: a counterdirectional movement leads one back to a place, or rather, many places where one was earlier.

Givón can be credited with initiating the theoretical discussion of unidirectionality as it is allegedly argued in his 1975 work that counterdirectional change is simply not attested (Chao 1968b: 96).

Verbal particles are not structurally uniform; the restitutive újra ‘again’ and the counterdirectional vissza ‘back’ are inserted into the structure in different places, lending further support to previous assumptions that some verbal particles are not secondary predicates introducing their own subject but are predicate modifiers.

We consequently predicted that the leading copy will be more transcribed than the lagging copy when transcription and replication are codirectional, while the lagging copy will be more expressed when they are counterdirectional.
