This volume significantly augments the academic literature on their semantics, focusing on three affixal quantifiers, -saai, -hoi and -maai. The author shows how these verbal suffixes display a unique interplay of syntax and semantics: used in a sentence with no focus, they quantify items flexibly, according to an accessibility hierarchy; with focus, focus comes into effect after syntactic selection.This fresh and compelling perspective in the study of particles and quantification is the first in-depth analysis of Cantonese verbal suffixes. It compares the language’s affixal quantification to the alternative determiner and adverbial quantifiers. The book’s syntax-semantics mapping geography deploys both descriptive and theoretical approaches, making it an essential resource for researchers studying the nexus of syntax and semantics, as well as Cantonese itself. | | 出版日期 | Book 2012 | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | Affixal quantification; Cantonese grammar; Cantonese linguistics; Generative linguistics; Quantification | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-4387-8 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-007-9511-2 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-4387-8Series ISSN 0924-4670 Series E-ISSN 2215-0358 | | issn_series | 0924-4670 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2012 |
