In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief exceprt:In this paper I argue that projective spatial expressions are anaphoric. I demonstrate that an anaphoric account makes better empirical predictions for projective spatial expressions in English. I then show that the anaphoric approach can be extended to account for a different type of spatial anchoring found in the meanings of non-projective spatial expres-sions in the Bantu language Mushunguli (Somalia).
