<span class="gmail-kma42e"><span><span>The goal of our study is to explore the use of elevational demonstratives in narratives. We consider the use of demonstrative pronouns in two distantly related languages of the East Caucasian (Nakh-Daghestanian) language family, Mehweb (Dargwa) and Tukita (Andic). We find that both languages use elevational demonstratives in narratives, but strongly differ in the patterns of their use. We also find variation in the choice of demonstrative pronouns across the speakers within each of the two languages. </span></span></span>
