对指示词的三种主要类型：名词性(对应于传统术语中的指示代词和指示形容词)、局部状语和动词性变化参数进行了类型学分析。本文考察了指示词的基本特征、形式(包括与冠词和疑问句的关系)、指示语、句法、回指等功能和指称类型--空间、高度和立场、可见性等。
A typology is presented of parameters of variation associated with three main types of demonstratives: nominal (corresponding to demonstrative pronouns and demonstrative adjectives in traditional terminology), local adverbial and verbal. The paper surveys their basic characteristics; forms (including relationship to articles and interrogatives); deictic, syntactic, anaphoric and other functions, and types of reference - spatial, height and stance, visibility, etc. There is a case study of demonstratives in Dyirbal, and an array of questions which can usefully be pursued when investigating demonstratives in a given language.
