In this paper1 I consider the derivational creation of nouns of location across languages. Using a sample of 50 languages which are said in the literature to have affixes which derive locational nouns, I search for generalisations about such nouns and their semantic fields. In a second part I reflect on the methodology used here (and in many other similar papers) and consider some of its weaknesses
