N2 - The paper analyzes the uses of the Russian accusative and locative in which theyare directly opposed to one another. It is demonstrated that in spatial contextsthe accusative denotes change of contact, whereas the locative denotespermanent contact. This is a manifestation of the crucial distinction betweendynamicity and stativity within the prepositional case system of Russian inwhich the accusative and the locative are regarded as contact cases while allothers are regarded as non-contact cases. In temporal contexts the notion oftime is treated as space when the locative is used – either as location or a setof elements. This means that the accusative is alone in expressing time in itsown right, where the speaker makes contact with a timeline. In addition, thesemantic contribution of the prepositions v ‘in’ and na ‘on’ to the accusativeand locative cases is shown.
