    Modal Verbs and Modal Adverbs in Chinese: An Investigation into the Semantic Source

    [[abstract]]This paper presents ‘source’ as the distinctive feature for a twofold semantic categorization for Chinese modal expressions. Previous studies have characterized Chinese modals as words used to express the speaker’s opinion or attitude. Yet given the absence of morphological and syntactic distinctions in Chinese, there has been little consensus among different accounts as to within what limit this definition is to apply. Instead of imposing such preconceived cross-linguistic perspective, this paper argues that the component of ‘source’ must be taken into consideration to outline a clearly specified semantic category in Chinese modal systems. A distinction is drawn between modals with ‘the source of opinion or attitude’ as part of their meaning components and those without. The former is non-subject-oriented by nature, including modals traditionally seen as auxiliaries (e.g., epistemic keneng ‘may’, and deontic keyi ‘can’) and adverbs (e.g., epistemic yiding ‘must’, deontic wubi ‘must’, and evaluative xingkui ‘fortunately’). The latter type, being subject-oriented, functions as the main verb in a sentence (e.g., epistemic caice ‘guess’, deontic yaoqiu ‘demand’, and evaluative qingxing ‘be gratified’) and covers a group of words that have been widely identified as auxiliaries (e.g., dynamic neng ‘can’). ‘Neutral possibility’ as advanced by a number of scholars is also proven to belong to dynamic modality because it takes the enabling condition as its subject and is subject-oriented in the sense that the proposition it qualifies concerns the capacity of its subject. The source involvement property alongside the bipartite model provides a unified account for Chinese modal inventories. It entails formal dimensions such as argument selection and categorical manifestation and also reflects the speaker’s motivation in exploiting varied modal types to achieve different pragmatic purposes.[[fileno]]204_JA07_2005_v1_p31[[department]]語言學研究

    A Constructional Approach to Argument Realization of Chinese Resultatives

    Get PDF
    [[abstract]]This paper argues for a constructional view of the resultative constructions, specifically the resultative-verb compounds (henceforth RVCs). We claim that the effect of the construction must be taken into account in the realization of arguments, and the realization must be moderated by the linking rules. This paper is organized as follows: Section 2 provides a brief definition of resultatives in English and Chinese; Section 3 reviews previous works on Chinese resultatives; Section 4 introduces the constructional approach and argument realization; Section 5 proposes the event-frames and linking rules in Chinese RVC constructions; Section 6 discusses the Chinese inverted causative RVC constructions. Section 7 concludes this paper.[[fileno]]204_JA07_2006_v2_p13[[department]]語言學研究

    Two Types of V-de Constructions in Mandarin Chinese

    Get PDF
    [[abstract]]This paper intends to study the V-de constructions in Mandarin Chinese. There are two types of them, exemplified in (1-2). (1) Zhangsan pao-de henkuai (depictive) p.n. run-DE fast ‘Zhangsan runs fast.’ (2) Zhangsan pao-de henlei (resultative) p.n. run-DE tired ‘Zhangsan has run and is tired.’ They are documented in the literature, according to the meaning of the complements each takes respectively. In (1), the V-de takes a depictive complement henkuai “fast,” while another instance of V-de takes a resultative one henlei “tired” as in (2). Huang (1988) argues that the syntactic structures of (1-2) are the same, in that V-de is the primary predicate in both cases. However, the data here will show that V-de taking a depictive complement may enjoy a different structure than that taking a resultative one. The evidence comes from the various positions of modal adverbs like keneng “possibly” and yiding “certainly” etc, and anaphoric ziji “self”. The analysis suggests that -de may occupy various syntactic positions in Mandarin Chinese in the hope that a unified explanation of the V-de constructions may be developed. The organization of this paper is as follows: in the next section, we will reinforce a light verb analysis in the spirit of Huang (1988). Then more evidence shall be brought up in section three, to argue against a unified analysis of two types of V-de taking a depictive or a resultative complement. Our analysis will be presented in section four, where a sentential subject V-de is assumed. Section five concludes this paper and proposes some possible future research orientation.[[fileno]]204_JA07_2006_v2_p97[[department]]語言學研究

    閩南語指示詞感嘆句初探

    [[abstract]]It is not uncommon that deictic elements such as demonstratives serve as intensifier adverbials and markers of exclamative sentence type. This paper describes how Taiwanese Southern Min uses various grammatical structures associated with the demonstrative in expressing exclamative meaning and discusses why the form has the function it does from the perspective of Scalar Model (Fillmore et al, 1988).[[fileno]]204_JA07_2008_v4_p27[[department]]語言學研究

    Syntactic Reconstruction and the Architecture of Grammar

    Get PDF
    [[abstract]]This paper investigates the nature of total reconstruction, movement that apparently does not bring about any semantic effect. I compare two main approaches – the pure PF movement account and the copy theory of movement – in deriving syntactic reconstruction effects. The arguments presented in this article include scrambling, argument-adjunct asymmetry in binding and the interaction between raising and wh-movement. We also discuss the implications of these arguments on the architecture of grammar, namely the choice between the classical T-model, where PF movement is assumed to take place after narrow syntax, and the single cycle grammar, where PF and LF can intersperse with each other.[[fileno]]204_JA07_2010_v6_p103[[department]]語言學研究

    Distributivity in Mandarin Chinese

    Get PDF
    [[abstract]]This paper investigates the distributive readings of ge (‘each’) and gezi (‘separately’) in Mandarin Chinese. I propose a hypothesis that gezi can only range over different events; while on the other hand, ge can also range one single event. The factor responsible for this distinction can be found in the syntax and empirical evidence is also provided to justify this hypothesis. Moreover, I discover two special requirements of gezi which have a lot to do with the adverb zi.[[fileno]]204_JA07_2013_v7_p21[[department]]語言學研究
