garden
I’m coming out of the garden.
German: Ich komme aus dem Garten (eigentlich: aus dem inwendigen des Gartens.). [op.cit.]
Comment:
Conveying a meaning that differs slightly from that of Feature 79 "Motion-to and motion-from", in this example the source complement of komoto 'come out of' is preceded not only by the general preposition na but also by ini 'in(side)', a strategy that resembles that of the Gbe substrate.
