'Proximal' and 'distal' in language and cognition : Evidence from deictic demonstratives in Dutch (2008, methodology): “Findings along the same lines as those reported in Kemmerer (1999) can be found in Enfield (2003).”
Evidentiality and interrogativity (2017, background): “…in much the same way as a demonstrative such as English here is speaker-anchored (always allowing that the ‘speaker’ may be transposed to a reported speaker, and noting that many scholars find spatial anchoring inadequate to characterise demonstratives, see e.g. Enfield, 2003; Hanks, 1990, 2005).”
Stance, Alignment, and Affiliation During Storytelling: When Nodding Is a Token of Affiliation (2008, background): “Similarly, “That back gate” (where the likely default in a context in which there is only one back gate would be “The back gate”) also has a complaint forecasting function by not placing the gate within what Enfield (2003) called the speaker’s “here space” when this was possible.”
A grammar of Lao (2007, background): “Enfield (2003c) is an extended case study in this domain, which while concentrating on Lao, also provides primary data from field investigations of other Tai languages of Laos, including Thai Neua and Lue.”
Demonstratives, joint attention, and the emergence of grammar (2006, background): “Demonstratives and deictic pointing To begin with, demonstratives are commonly accompanied by a deictic pointing gesture (cf. Bühler 1934; Diessel 1999; Enfield 2003; Levinson 2004).”
