Winds and tigers: metaphor choice in China’s anti-corruption discourse
Tập 3 - Trang 1-26 - 2017
This article examines metaphor choice in China’s official anti-corruption
discourse. Drawing on corpus data, we analyze the metaphors used by the Chinese
Communist Party and its flagship newspaper, the People’s Daily, to frame the
anti-corruption campaign and influence public perception. It is found that both
embodied experience and cultural models are recruited as the metaphoric vehicles
or sourc...
Pragmatic effects of polarity items revealing focal prominence in Mandarin word order
Tập 3 - Trang 1-27 - 2017
This paper investigates the information structure of Mandarin Chinese word order
through studying the distribution of minimizers, a distinct class of negative
polarity items. The emphatic nature of minimizers is an effective indicator for
distinguishing the strength of focal prominence in different syntactic
construals. The corpus analysis compares the frequency of minimizers in
different word ord...
From non-uniqueness to the best solution in phonemic analysis: evidence from Chengdu Chinese
Tập 3 - Trang 1-23 - 2017
The “non-uniqueness” theory assumes that there is no best solution in phonemic
analysis; rather, competing solutions can co-exist, each having its own
advantages (Chao, Bulletin of the Institute of History and Philology 4: 363–398,
1934). The theory is based on the assumption that there is no common set of
criteria to evaluate alternative solutions. I argue instead that such a set of
criteria can ...

Encoding motion events in Chinese and the “scalar specificity constraint”
Tập 1 - Trang 1-29 - 2015
Mandarin Chinese often expresses motion events with more than one verbal motion
morpheme, e.g., 退 tui ‘recede’ and 回 hui ‘return’ in 退回房間裏 tui-hui fangjian-li
recede-return room-inside ‘return into the room’. Building on recent work on
“scale structure”, this paper proposes a “Motion Morpheme Hierarchy” that can be
used to better predict the order of co-occurring motion morphemes: specifically,
Ch...
Vowel purity and rhyme evidence in Old Chinese reconstruction
Tập 3 - Trang 1-17 - 2017
Rhyme patterns in Old Chinese poems are important for the reconstruction of Old
Chinese pronunciation, as they provide evidence for groups of words which
formerly had similar pronunciation. Rhyme patterns can also be used to test Old
Chinese reconstruction systems for consistency and plausibility, as
reconstruction systems should minimize the conflict with attested rhyme
patterns. Here, we build o...
The effect of speaker gender and talker proficiency on the realization of Taiwan Min /dz/ among young speakers
Tập 4 - Trang 1-36 - 2018

realization of Taiwan Min /dz/ among young speakers of the 漳 Chiang and Mix
dialect. Ten males and seven females with adequate proficiency were recruited to
perform a paragraph reading task. Five major variant categories were observed,
including dental sibilant, dental nonsibilant, velar obstruent, lateral, and
retroflex. Gende...
Non-root modals for the past and temporal shifting in Mandarin Chinese
Tập 1 - Trang 1-22 - 2015
This paper has two major goals. First, it provides a detailed empirical
description of how the epistemic and metaphysical readings of the “non-root
modal + Perf(ect) have” construction in English (e.g., John might have won the
game yesterday) are expressed in Mandarin Chinese. The two readings both involve
non-root modals for the past, i.e., non-root modals with either a past temporal
perspective ...
