Code-Switching and the Variable Grammar Hypothesis
This study investigates whether grammatical models of code-switching grounded in informal, linguist-generated judgments hold up when tested against formal acceptability ratings from bilingual speakers with varying second language (L2) proficiencies. Specifically, it evaluates the Functional Parameter Constraint (FPC), a syntactic model that predicts code-switching must preserve the hierarchical structure of functional heads. To test the FPC’s gen…
Mandarin Chinese Emphatic Operator in Denial
This study explores the unique linguistic mechanisms of Mandarin Chinese, a tonal language, in expressing illocutionary acts, specifically focusing on the act of denial. Central to our investigation is the specialized use of the particle "并" (bīng), which is posited to add emphasis in negation contexts, akin to the emphatic role of words like "actually" or "in fact" in English. Through the lens of Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG), this research…
The Taxonomy of Denial as a Speech Act
This paper presents a critical examination of the classification of Denial within Speech Act Theory, advocating for its redefinition from an assertive to a directive speech act. Drawing upon the foundational principles established by J.L. Austin (1962) and further developed by John Searle (1969, 1979), the study applies Searle's twelve dimensions of illocutionary acts to Denial. Through this analytical framework, the paper demonstrates that Denia…
Splitting NegP in Standard Arabic
This paper strives to overcome the issues of achieving a VSO word order in negated sentences in Standard Arabic. A possible solution would be to split the Negative projection into two, where the higher head hosts the negative particle, and the lower head has the ability to attract and host the verb, which falls within the scope of the negative particle. Splitting the negative projection proved to be sufficient to maintain the integrity and validi…
The Scope of Negation and Dual Operators in Standard Arabic
Negation has been extensively dealt with in the domain of formal theories of linguistics and grammar. The general consensus usually converges towards the conclusion that it is a morpho-syntactic operation by which the truth value of an utterance is reversed. On the other hand, Functional theories, such as Functional Discourse Grammar (henceforth FDG), reveal that Negation could potentially carry more nuances up its sleeves. This paper investigate…
