Semantics of Chinese Questions: An Interface Approach de Hongyuan Dong

Semantics of Chinese Questions: An Interface Approach: Routledge Studies in Chinese Linguistics

Autor Hongyuan Dong
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 aug 2022
Semantics of Chinese Questions is the first major study of Chinese questions, especially wh-questions, within the framework of Alternative Semantics.
It takes an interface approach to study the syntax, semantics, and phonology of questions and proposes a phonological scope-marking strategy in Chinese questions, based upon experimental data. It also incorporates historical linguistic data regarding the grammaticalization of sentence-final particles such as –ne and –ma to study the formal diachronic semantics of questions. Primarily suitable for scholars in the field of Chinese linguistics, this book makes new theoretical contributions to the study of questions.
