Series series Routledge Library Editions: Syntax
This title, first published in 1988, is an inquiry into the nature of predication in natural language.

Chinese Middle Constructions

Lexical Middle Formation

by Jiajuan Xiong ...

Series series Social Sciences (R0)

This working definition sets “middle construction” apart from “middle voice” in that it can be instantiated by various constructions in Chinese. By scrutinizing these constructions in the framework of Generative Syntax, the book ... Read more
