日语的指示代词a-no、ko-no和so-no。语义上,它们通过指示前缀a-、ko-和so-来表达熟悉性,但缺乏唯一性或最大性,整个指示短语是存在量化的;-no either标记部分性(withoutexcludingmaximality)在指示语和照应语中,或-在桥接使用中-用于填充参数槽(在后面的NP中进行词法编码或根据上下文创建)。这种分析是支持(一)的可用性冲洗,(二)数量分类器的分布,和(三)类似的行为,法国部分结构相对于“一致性测试”。从句法上看,日语名词性指示词被分析为NP-附加语,这一假设得到了三个形态句法属性的支持:(i)指示词前缀ko-、so-、a-系统地显示与WH-前缀do-相同的形态;(ii)日语指示词可以像其他附加修饰语一样在前面加上限制性修饰语;(iii)它们对于以下NP的省略的行为与其他无标记表达方式一样明确识别为名词性附加语。这些假设进一步阐明了L2采集的一些数据。
Japanese adnominal demonstratives a-no, ko-no and so-no. Semantically it is claimed that, while conveying familiarity by means of the demonstrative prefixes a-, ko-and so-, they lack uniqueness or maximality, and that the whole demonstrative phrase is existentially quantified;-no either marks partitivity (withoutexcludingmaximality) inthedeicticandanaphoricuses, or—in bridging uses—serves to fill an argument slot (lexically encoded inside the following NP or created contextually). This analysis is supported by (i) the availability of sluicing,(ii) the distribution of numeral classifiers, and (iii) the similar behavior of French partitive constructions with respect to the “consistency test”. Syntactically, Japanese adnominal demonstratives are analyzed as NP-adjuncts, an assumption supported by three morpho-syntactic properties:(i) The demonstrative prefixes, ko-, so-, a-systematically display the same morphology as that of the WH-prefix do-;(ii) The Japanese demonstratives may be preceded by a restrictive modifier, like other adjunct modifiers;(iii) They behave with respect to the ellipsis of the following NP as other no-marked expressionsclearlyidentifiedasadnominaladjuncts. Thesehypothesesfurther shed light on some data from L2 acquisition.
