Abstract

The goal of this paper is to analyze the alternative between the Spanishprepositions en/a in constructions with motion verbs that denotepenetration of a location (entrar, ingresar, etc.) This alternative marksa different way to conceptualize the action, as a result of the conceptualizationof locative entities (container vs. no container). The choiceof preposition triggers other semantic interpretations where mechanismssuch as metonymy play an important role.
