5. ablative temporality (/To mu je ostalo/iz djetinjstva)
6. inter-temporality (između petka i subote)
7. intra-temporality (u roku od tjedan dana)
8. circum-temporality (oko Bozića)
9. comparative temporality (preko dva mjeseca)
10. "spatial temporality" (na svadbi)
11. directive temporality (do ove godine)
12. centre temporality (usred bijela dana)
13. extreme temporality (na početku/na kraju stoljeća)
