     The picture is unclear, for some verbs seem to permit all of the logical possibilities exemplified in (9)–(15) while others allow only some. I will have more to say about the conditions under which a deictic element in a sentential complement may be interpreted endophorically or exophorically in the discussion of mood and presupposition below.

     Personal reference is a co-hyponym of textual cohesion; it deals with the first, second and third persons singular or plural; it can occur exophorically, or endophorically as anaphora or cataphora. The present paper is a descriptive study on the cohesiveness and translatability of personal reference; it describes its occurrence and cohesiveness in translating from French into English.

     Therefore, we have replaced adnominal and adverbial demonstratives with a single category: “demonstrative modifier,” which can be applied either exophorically or endophorically, i.e., to refer to referents in the immediate environment, or to refer to linguistic aspects of the unfolding discourse.
