THE LINGUISTIC CATEGORIZATION OF DEICTIC DIRECTION IN CHINESE —— WITH REFERENCE TO JAPANESE —— Christine Lamarre, University of Tokyo Abstract This paper discusses the linguistic categorization of deictic direction in Mandarin Chinese, with reference to Japanese. It focuses on the following question: to what extent should the prevalent bimorphemic (nondeictic + deictic) structure of Chinese directionals be linked to its typological features as a satellite-framed language? We know from other satellite-framed languages such as English, Hungarian, and Russian that this feature is not necessarily directly connected to satellite-framed patterns.

  • The Development of 'Wang+Path' Adverbials in Northern Chinese
    Breaking Down the Barriers, 887-909 2013-1-050-041-000372-1 When Lexicalization Meets Grammaticalization: The Development of ‘wang+path’ Adverbials * in Northern Chinese Christine Lamarre (柯理思) INALCO-CRLAO This paper discusses a productive compounding pattern, which combines preposition 往 WANG (wàng or wǎng) ‘towards’, with a path-expressing element, either a monosyllabic localizer, e.g. 往裡 wǎnglǐ ‘in’, or a path verb, e.g. 往回 wǎnghuí ‘back’ or 往起 wǎngqǐ ‘up’. These compounds, like directional complements, express the core path meanings of a spatial motion event (‘up’, ‘down’, ‘in’, ‘out’, ‘across’ etc.), but they appear before the verb, whereas directional complements follow the verb. Only the latter (e.g. 拿進去 nájinqu ‘take in’, 拿回去 náhuiqu ‘take back’ or 拿起來 náqilai ‘take up’) have a bounding effect on the clause. We argue that one important motivation for this lexicalization process is the need for two complete symmetrical sets of path- marking elements which share the same repertory of path meanings, but have different aspectual implications for the clause. The second type of compounds (WANG + directional verb) appears later in history than the first type (WANG + localizer), and fills up the gaps existing in the repertory of core path meanings provided by localizers, e.g. huí ‘back’, qǐ ‘up (source-oriented)’, guò ‘over’ etc. We also discuss the role of grammaticalization in this evolution, and conclude on a few typological perspectives. Key words: path of motion, directionals, localizers, Northern Mandarin, lexicali- zation, grammaticalization 1. Introduction We discuss here a productive compounding pattern, which combines preposition 往 WANG (wàng or wǎng) ‘towards’, with a path-expressing element (hereafter path), * We develop here some sections of a paper read at the 4th Kentridge roundtable on Chinese Linguistics on grammaticalization and lexicalization (National Singapore University, September 2008).

Methods: Seventy two free lists were collected among the inhabitants of two mountain valleys (36 in each). All the studied households are within walking distance of primary forest vegetation, however the valleys differed in access to urban centers: Houzhenzi is very isolated, and the Dali valley has easier access to the cities of central Shaanxi. Results: Altogether, 185 wild food plant species and 17 fungi folk taxa were mentioned. The mean number of freelisted wild foods was very high in Houzhenzi (mean 25) and slightly lower in Dali (mean 18). An average respondent listed many species of wild vegetables, a few wild fruits and very few fungi. Age and male gender had a positive but very low effect on the number of taxa listed.

  • The Linguistic Encoding of Motion Events in Chinese -- with Reference to Cross-Dialectal Variation --1
    The Linguistic Encoding of Motion Events in Chinese -- with Reference to Cross-dialectal Variation --1 Christine Lamarre (University of Tokyo, Language & Information Sciences) ABSTRACT / INTRODUCTION • Aims: Chinese has been classified by Talmy (1985:106-7) as a satellite-framed language (S-language), in which the satellites correspond to what are usually called ‘directional complements’ (hereafter designated ‘D’). However, as was pointed out by Tai 2003 and Lamarre 2003c, Chinese does not fit very well in this category, since apart from VD constructions, it also often uses Path verbs to express spatial motion. On the other hand, even in cases when a VD construction is used, Slobin (2004) proposed, on the ground that Chinese directionals are verbal elements and not particles, to put Chinese together with Thai in a third category, called ‘equipollently-framed languages’, where the co-event verb and the directional verb would be of equivalent morphosyntactic weight. We address here the issue of Chinese’s status in Talmy’s typology, with reference to Goldberg & Jackendoff’s discussion (2003) on English resultative constructions, and to Cappelle & Declerck’s discussion of temporal boundedness in English motion events. • Content: In section I we give an overview of the various grammatical categories used in Chinese to express motion. In section II we turn to the controversial VD construction [Co-event verb + Path verb], to examine various prosodic, semantic and syntactic pieces of evidence for the grammaticalization of Path Verbs into Directionals (i.e. Path Satellites in Talmy’s framework). Such evidence goes against Tai 2003 and Slobin 2004’s suggestions to treat Directionals as full verbs functioning on the same level as the co-event verb they follow.

By using 3000 semantic units of Xi’an dialect from Characters Collection of Chinese Dialects as original database, the article calculates the frequency of initials, finals and tones, and also conducts a frequency statistic of the combination types of initials, finals and tones. Based on this study, the article probes into the syllable distribution, syllabic combination and the role of rhyme, offers a quantitative analysis of function of each phoneme and their combination capacity so as to provide fundamental data for the further study of phonemic theory study of Xi’an dialect. 1. Introduction Phonemes are the smallest speech units to differentiate the semantic meanings in linguistic system. The number and type of phonemes vary from language to language. In Chinese-Tibetan languages, the syllabic form are all single characters with a single sound. The three major elements of speech system are initials, finals and tones. In these languages, some have more than 100 phonemes, some have about 20 – 30 phonemes. All these phonemes are very different from each other in terms of frequency, function and roles. Xi’an dialect belongs to Guanzhong dialect of Shaanxi, is the representative of Dongfu dialect of Guanzhong and that of Shaanxi dialect.

  • Global TIMIT Mandarin Chinese-Guanzhong Dialect Authors: Yue Jiang, Juhong Zhan, Hongjian Han, Zuohao Xu, Haiyan Zhou, Jiahong Y
    Global TIMIT Mandarin Chinese-Guanzhong Dialect Authors: Yue Jiang, Juhong Zhan, Hongjian Han, Zuohao Xu, Haiyan Zhou, Jiahong Yuan, Mark Liberman Introduction Global TIMIT Mandarin Chinese-Guanzhong Dialect is a TIMIT-like corpus in Guanzhong dialect of Mandarin (in Shannxi province), part of the “Global TIMIT” series. The design of “Global TIMIT” adopts a scheme different from that of the original TIMIT. Instead of having 630 speakers and 10 sentences per speaker, the new design has 50 speakers and 120 sentences per speaker. Among the 120 sentences, 20 are “Calibration” sentences, read by all speakers; 40 are “Shared” sentences, read by 10 speakers; and 60 are “Unique” sentences, read by only one speaker. The total number of sentence types is, therefore, 20 + 40*(50/10) + 60*50 = 3220. The sentences of Global TIMIT Mandarin Chinese-Guanzhong Dialect were selected from the corpus of Chinese Gigaword Fifth Edition (LDC2011T13). Twenty “Calibration” sentences were selected to cover the maximum number of syllable types in the language. “Shared” sentences were selected to cover the maximum number of tones and tonal combinations. Finally, “Unique” sentences were randomly selected. 50 high school students, 25 females and 25 males, were recruited to read the sentences. The speakers were born in Weinan, Shannxi, and speak the Guanzhong dialect of Mandarin. The recording was made in a quiet room. HMM/GMM-based forced alignment, with employment of explicit phone boundary models, was applied to obtain phonetic segmentation. Data The corpus contains 5999 utterances (one utterance was missing). Each utterance has file data files as listed below: *.flac: flac files *.phones: phone segmentation files *.words: word segmentation files *.tones: syllable/tone segmentation files *.TextGrid: Praat TextGrid files Base filenames have the form SP##_###, where the first digit string is a 0-padded subject number and the second is a 0-padded sentence number.

  • Langues Sinitiques Et Typologie : Deux Études De Cas
    Langues sinitiques et typologie : deux études de cas Christine Lamarre* INTRODUCTION La linguistique chinoise connaît depuis une trentaine d’années un regain d’intérêt pour la variation spatiale - et sa signification du point de vue de la caractérisation typologique - de ce qu’on appelle «le chinois», ou parfois les «langues sinitiques», définies comme suit par Alain Peyraube (2011) dans le Dictionnaire des langues (Bonvini, Busuttil & Peyraube 2011). Les langues sinitiques ou langues chinoises constituent l’une des deux branches de la famille des langues sino-tibétaines, l’autre branche étant le tibéto-birman. Comme taxon ou sous-groupe des langues, elles sont aussi diverses que les langues romanes ou germaniques de la famille indo-européenne. Ainsi, le cantonais et le mandarin, sous leurs formes parlées, ne sont pas du tout mutuellement compréhensibles, au même titre que le roumain et le portugais, ou l’anglais et l’allemand. Pour illustrer l’apport de ces recherches à la réflexion typologique, nous abordons ici deux domaines pour lesquels la prise en compte de la variation interne aux langues sinitiques peut avoir une conséquence pour la caractérisation typologique du chinois : 1) la morphologie, 2) l’expression du déplacement. Avant de rentrer dans le vif du sujet, il nous faut revenir sur la notion de «mandarin». La variation la plus évidente au sein des langues sinitiques est celle opposant le mandarin aux langues sinitiques parlées au sud-est de la Chine, comme le min, le yue, le hakka1 ou le wu. Le chinois standard, fondé sur le dialecte de Pékin, est généralement adopté comme représentant du groupe mandarin, c’est le cas par exemple du Dictionnaire des langues cité plus haut, ou encore de l’Atlas des structures des langues du monde (WALS, Haspelmath et al.
