Nobody there? On the non-existence of nobody in Mandarin Chinese and related issues
The present article demonstrates how the so far unchallenged misanalysis within Chinese linguistics of a few, but central, data points has led to a distorted picture biasing, inter alia , the general typology of wh -in-situ languages as well as the crosslinguistic study of Quantifier Phrases. This is the case for méi yǒu rén ‘not exist person’, hěnshǎo yǒu rén ‘rarely exist person’, and zhǐ yǒu DP ‘only exist DP’, which are not nominal projection…
Existential and locative constructions in Mandarin Chinese
Despite previous studies (cf. among others Huang 1987. Existential sentences in Chinese and (in)definiteness. In Eric J. Reuland & Alice G.B. Ter Meulen (eds.), The representation of (In)definiteness , 226–253. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press; Li, Yen-Hui Audrey. 1990. Order and constituency in Mandarin Chinese . Dordrecht: Kluwer; Li, Yen-Hui Audrey. 1998. Two types of existential sentences. Illinois Papers in Linguistics 26. 175–191; Pan, Haihua. 1…
A New Approach to -zhe in Mandarin Chinese
Topic Prominence
We assimilate the typological feature of topic prominence to established treatments of the left periphery. East Asian languages grouped together as topic‐prominent turn out to display important differences. In Japanese and Korean, the A‐domain extends higher than in Chinese, to include a fused FocusP/FiniteP projection. Descriptive properties sometimes associated with topic prominence include (1) obligatoriness of topics, (2) null topics, (3) ove…

Why Chinese SFPs are neither optional nor disjunctors
Why particles are not particular
Biberauer, Newton & Sheehan ( ) claim that clause-final particles are categorially deficient. This move is motivated by the fact that a number of VO languages - among them Mandarin Chinese - display sentence-final particles ( SFP s), which, when analysed as complementisers, violate the purportedly universal Final-over-Final Constraint ( FOFC ). The FOFC excludes structures where a head-final projection dominates a head-initial one. In contrast, t…

Shi … de focus clefts in Mandarin Chinese
Low IP area and left periphery in Mandarin Chinese
L’hypothèse de Belletti (2003), selon laquelle l’architecture fonctionnelle à l’intérieur d’IP reflète celle au-dessus d’IP, est examinée pour le mandarin. Tandis que le parallélisme entre CP et la partie basse d’IP se trouve confirmé, la hiérarchie obtenue pour le mandarin, ‘CP (force) > TopP > FocusP ‘même’ > IP > TopP interne > FocusP ‘même’ > vP’, ne correspond que partiellement à celle proposée par Rizzi (1997, 2002) et Belletti (2003), surt…
Adjectival modification in Mandarin Chinese and related issues
Against the background of recent typological studies postulating crosslinguistically valid hierarchies for the modifiers within the DP (cf. Scott 1998, 2002a, 2002b; Chao et al. 2001; Laenzlinger 2000), the present article argues that both types of modification available in Mandarin Chinese have to be taken into account: that where the subordinator de intervenes between the adjective and the head noun — ‘A de N’ — and the case of simple juxtaposi…

Functional categories, topic prominence, and complex sentences in Mandarin Chinese
Les As. analysent les phrases complexes en chinois mandarin et montrent que les conjonctions de subordination des propositions causales et conditionnelles ne sont pas des prepositions mais un exemple de la categorie fonctionnelle Conjonction o c-selectionnant un complement IP. Ils introduisent la projection fonctionnelle Top P associee au phenomene de proeminence du topic en chinois et montrent que, comme les topics nominaux, ces propositions peu…
