- Summary:
- This volume, part of the Mouton-NINJAL Library of Linguistics series, delves into the complexities of secondary predication in linguistics. Edited by Marcel den Dikken and Hideki Kishimoto, the book compiles various scholarly contributions discussing the syntactic and semantic intricacies of secondary predication. Topics range from depictives and resultatives to constructions embedded under epistemic verbs and verbs of perception. The book aims to enhance the understanding of these constructions, challenging earlier unified treatments and highlighting their diversity. It is intended for linguists and scholars interested in advanced linguistic theory, particularly in Japanese and Ryukyuan languages. Generated by AI.
