In linguistics, mirativity, initially proposed by Scott DeLancey, is a grammatical category in a language, independent of evidentiality,[1][2] that encodes the speaker's surprise or the unpreparedness of their mind.[1][3] Grammatical elements that encode the semantic category of mirativity are called miratives (abbreviated MIR).[4][5]
