Resumo

Boundaries, borders, and the spaces they delimit become meaningful, in part, through talk situated within them, as well as through talk about them. In this article I look at the role elicitations play in organizing mutually embedded knowledge about social and spatial location. Particularly important, I argue, is the use, in elicitations, of metapragmatic framing devices, including personal and spatial deictics and explicitly metalinguistic verbs such as kos 'curse' and kaal 'call/beckon'.
