metadata.value: This study, on the one hand, pursues a practical objective, namely to assist Danish
  language learners in understanding and acquiring some peculiarities of prepositional
  representations for temporal meanings that can seem odd for native speakers of
  Russian. On the other hand, it pursues a theoretical objective within the framework
  of cognitive anthropocentric approach, namely to elicit and to describe the perceptual
  mechanisms for grammatical categorization in a specific language.
  By the perceptual mechanisms for temporal categorization we mean the process
  of human perception of a present situation — its visual recollection in the past and
  its visual constructs in the future — as being reflected in specific linguistic forms of a
  certain language culture.
  The article discusses some specifics of temporal orientation reflected in Danish
  prepositions denoting time-related meanings. The latter include: the spatial lexeme of
  frontal orientation for denoting ‘past time’ (fortid); lexeme of lateral orientation siden
  localizing past events; asymmetrical lexemes (i vs. på, til) localizing past vs. future
  events, correspondingly; lexemes (efter vs. for) denoting different spatial orientation of
  similar temporal sequences. The article offers systemic explanation of above paradoxes
  on the basis of such perception-related meanings as special orientation of a temporal
  event in relation to the observer; the observer’s internal or external perspective; the
  observer’s distance from the observed event. The observer’s position is considered thus
  to be the starting point of subjective orientation in any language and therefore the basis
  of grammatical categorization.
