This paper is a brief sketch of deictic motion verbs (hereinafter DMVs) in Lan Hmyo (ISO 639-3: hereinafter LH), particularly venitive verbs. LH is a Hmongic language (West Hmongic, Hmongic, Hmong-Mien), spoken in the central part of Guizhou, China. The author examines the behavior of the DMVs of LH from a crosslinguistic perspective, and analyze the differences observed between two venitive verbs in LH, which requires us to introduce the notion of [home]. The paper further explores the meaning of the two venitive verbs and indicates that some motions can be described out of consideration of whether the motion is [+home] or [−home], and in that case, psychological distance plays a part.
