    "abstract": "People use spatial metaphors to talk about temporal concepts.They also gesture frequently during speech. Thecharacteristics of these gestures give information regardingthe mental timelines people form to experience time. Thepresent study investigates the expression of temporal conceptson a natural setting with Turkish speakers. We found thatTurkish speakers used more metaphoric temporal phrases(e.g., short period, time flies quickly) than words referring totime without spatial content (e.g., today, nowadays) in asession where they talked about people’s fortune.Spontaneous gestures were mainly classified as metaphoricand beat gestures and were mostly produced on the sagittalaxis, which contradicts with the previous findings. Yet, wealso found that people used vertical axis to represent currentand future events. These findings suggest that lateral axis maynot always be the most common direction for co-speechtemporal gesture use, and the pragmatic constraints of theenvironment may influence the spatial conceptualization oftime.",
