Abstract:

Chinese is noted for its rich inventory of particles that help to form sentences. However, a precise definition of particle is hard to achieve due to its wide range of forms and functions. Most words that are hard to categorize are dumped into this class. Naturally, there are two consequences that come out of this: 1) the difference is huge among groups and subgroups; 2) there seems to be no interconnectedness between groups. In these circumstances, this study mainly aims to address two issues: a) to establish particle as a theoretical construct that is distinguishable from other well-establis

Abstract:

This study identifies the semantic invariants of some commonly-used Cantonese utterance particles in Hong Kong Cantonese. The particles are a distinctive and ubiquitous feature of informal, everyday Cantonese, occurring every 1.5 seconds on average (Luke 1990, 11). The particles are necessary for expressing speakers’ transitory attitudes, assumptions, or feelings connected with an utterance. Although they are not grammatically obligatory, conversation sounds unnatural when they are omitted. There are approximately 30 ‘basic’ particles, which can combine with each other to form ‘clusters’, resu

Abstract:

Cette étude porte sur les valeurs temporelles, aspectuelles, modales et évidentielles (TAME) des particules enclitiques placées en fin de proposition ou de phrase dans le dialecte mandarin parlé à Baoding (Hebei, Chine). Ces particules inaccentuées, fréquentes dans les dialogues, assurent diverses fonctions sémantiques et pragmatiques. Mais certaines d’entre elles ont des valeurs relevant de l’aspect, du temps, du mode et de l’évidentialité, ainsi que des valeurs illocutoires. La première partie de la thèse inclut une présentation du dialecte de Baoding et un état de l’art sur les notions de t

Abstract:

Linguistic studies on the aspectual system of natural language have mainly focused on its semantics and morphology; the syntax of aspect has not yet received as much attention. In this dissertation, I provide a syntactic analysis of the aspectual system of Chinese. In analyzing the properties of situation aspect, I propose a unified syntactic structure that accounts for the two mechanisms of telicity marking in Chinese. First, I argue that like pre-verbs in Slavic languages, Chinese also has overt telic morphemes which are used to turn an atelic event into a telic one. For example, I claim th

By just adding one modal particle to a sentence, speakers are able to express their various feelings, moods or attitude. Language always changes because of differences in time and space. This study focuses on two areas of Mandarin usage, Taiwan and Malaysia, to discover the differences in use of modal particles between them. In this study, we attained authentic materials by situational conversations with 30 subjects. The situational conversation based on Qi (2002) mentions 6 kinds of traditional

In Mandarin, it is generally accepted that a V-V construction with the second verb indicating the resultative state of the event can be seen as a VR compound. In addition to this, one particular trait on the VR compounds is the potential mode, in which a potentialty-dé （得） is inserted to form a V-dé-X construction such as "chī-dé-wán" （吃得完）which distinguishes the VR compounds from other verbal compounds in Mandarin. However, as there are still some VR constructions ca

The author provides a systematic description to support the claim and hopes that such a description can allow Chinese language teachers to better understand contemporary Taiwanese Mandarin UPFs.

Apart from formal focus, many of these Mandarin Chinese particle studies have treated the various pragmatic functions of particles as linguistic manifestations reflecting speakers’ cognitive status. Among these, the sentence-final particles (so-called SFPs) in Mandarin Chinese especially call for linguists’ attention owing both to their positional predictability and pragmatic varieties. However, rather few studies (Wu, 1997; 2014; Tsai, 2008) take int

The three BA variants are the dubitative BA1, the imperative BA2, and the self-declaring BA3 while the three NE variants, the interrogative NE1, the highlighting NE2, and the comment-requesting NE3.

It has been argued that Japanese is abundant in character language, while Chinese relatively lacks such a marking system. In this sense, character language is highly pragmatic in use. Another highly pragmatic category in language is the sentence-final particle. Do the sentence-final particles share some functions of character language? Since the studies of sentence-final part

In this thesis, UFP a will be investigated by adopting the concept of speakers’ presuppositions in conversation. In addition, UFP a will be divided into two variants, namely, the high pitch (a1) and the low pitch (a2). There are two major differences between these two variants. For one thing, a1 mostly appears in the second part of one turn and is used by the second speaker in response to the first speaker’s knowledge state. For another thing, a2 is often placed in the first part of
