   Metaphorical Extension of Spatial Terms
   A notable feature is the consistent spatial orientation in abstract concepts. The word for 'future' ($\text{iragüdün}$) is derived from the root meaning 'that which is physically behind the rider,' while 'past' ($\text{ödröö}$) means 'that which is ahead.' This orientation consistently places the speaker facing West when discussing temporal vectors, regardless of actual cardinal orientation, a documented feature known as "Equatorial Facing Bias" [10].
