Ambs : Short for ambivalents, a lexical category with both nominal and verbal capacities and naturally carries out the nominal and verbal functions (cf. Kennedy 1964). Combinatorial Capacity: A term referred to by Lu (1942), Wang (1958), Kennedy (1964), Cikoski (1978), and Zhi (1985) as a factor for lower level phrasal constructions. For example, it is combinatorial capacity of verbs to take a nominal unit and form a [head-object] VP. Decategorization: referring to a process which makes verbal items become less typical instances of the verb category so as to correlate with the nominal functions. Denominalization: A term referring to zero conversion from nouns into adverbs or verbs. The conversion from nouns to verbs is better known as ’verbalization’. Descriptive Sentences: One of the three basic sentence types classified by Liu (1958), the PRED of which is usually carried out by ambs. Deverbal Entities: Verbs which are decategorized so as to correlate with the nominal functions. It is noteworthy that deverbal entities differ from typical nouns in the sense that they cannot naturally correlate with all nominal functions. Discourse Functions : Functions classified from the pragmatic aspect, including reference, nucleus, and modification, each of which corresponds to certain syntactic functions. Reference corresponds to SUBJ/0; nucleus, to P/PRED; and modification, to ADJ/ADV/PRED. Dominant Relation : The relation of a [head-object] VP, one of the two basic phrasal constructions of Classical Chinese which has to do with combinatorial capacity of verbs (cf. the term ’restrictive relation’). Equational Sentences: One of the three basic sentence types classified by Liu (1958), the PRED of which is usually carried out by nouns, and normally marked by a particle Ze- Functional Categories: Classes of functions which include syntactic functions (SF) and discourse functions (DF). Instrument Verbs: Used as in Clark & Clark (1979), which refer to denominal verbs whose parent nouns are in the instrumental case. Lexical Categories: Classes of lexemes divided by virtue of corresponding functional categories. Lexicalisation: a process through which contextually actuated denotations become fixed and are eventually listed in the inventory of the lexicon. Location Verbs: Used as in Clark & Clark (1979), which refer to denominal verbs whose parent nouns are in the locative case. Locatum Verbs: Used as in Clark & Clark (1979), which refer to denominal verbs whose parent nouns are in the objective case and denote objects to be placed in a location. Marked: Adapted from Croft (1984), which refers to unnatural correlations between categories. An unnatural correlation is marked in that semantic drift is expected through the correlation (cf. the term 'unnatural correlation'). Narrative Sentences: One of the three basic sentence types classified by Liu (1958), the PRED of which is usually carried out by verbs. Natural Correlation: A term from Croft (1984), which is concerned with the regular/unmarked correspondences between lexical categories and functional categories (cf. the term ’unmarked’). Nominal Functions: The functions which naturally correlate with the lexical category of nouns, including reference (DF) and SUBJ/0 (SF). Nominalization: A term used as in Hopper & Thompson (1984), which refers to decategorization of verbs into deverbal entities (cf. the term ’decategorization’). VI Nouns: A lexical category primarily defined by the restrictive relation, the members of which naturally correlates with the nominal functions (cf. the term 'restrictive relation'). Parent (vs. Surface): A term used as in Clark & Clark (1979), which refers to the original state of a noun before zero- converted into a verb. Profile: A term from Langacker (1987, 1988) which is used as the essential semantic criterion for identification of phrasal head, nominalization and verbalization. Relative Positions: A term from Wang (1958) which refers to certain syntaxemes characteristic of certain functions (cf. the term ’syntaxeme’). Relative Words: Nouns which occur in relative positions. Restrictive Relation: The relation of a [modifier-head] NP, one of the two basic phrasal constructions of Classical Chinese which has to do with combinatorial capacity of nouns (cf. the term ’dominant relation’). Result Verbs: Denominal verbs whose parent nouns are in the objective case and become resultative states implied in the derived verbs. Surface (vs. Parent): A term used as in Clark & Clark (1979), which refers to the innovative state of a denominal verb. Syntactic Functions: Functions classified in the syntactic aspect, which include SUBJ, PRED, P, 0, ADJ, ADV, and COMP. Syntaxeme: A term from Mukhin (1985), which refers to basic syntactic unit/slot with a fixed grammatical function. Target Verbs: The most readily computed denominal verbs in Classical Chinese, whose parent nouns are in the objective case. Temporary Functions: A term from Wang (1920, 1940, 1958), used to label a syntactic function that the lexical category of a given lexeme is supposed not to correspond to. Unmarked: Adapted from Croft (1984), which refers to natural correlations between categories. A natural correlation is unmarked in that no semantic drift is expected through this correlation (cf. the term ’natural correlation’). Vll Unnatural Correlations: A term from Croft (1984), which is concerned with irregular/marked correspondences between lexical categories and functional categories (cf. the term ’marked’)» Verbs: A lexical category primarily defined by the dominant relation, the members of which naturally correlates with the verbal functions (cf. the term ’dominant relation’).

    WHEN NOUNS SURFACE AS VERBS EVEV. CLARKand HERBERTH. CLARK Stanford University People readily create and understand denominal verbs they have never heard before, as in to porch a newspaper and to Houdini one's way out of a closet. The meanings are best accounted for by a theory of interpretation that specifies what the verbs mean on particular occasions of their use. Our proposal is that their use is regulated by a con- vention: in using such a verb, the speaker means to denote the kind of state, event, or process that, he has good reason to believe, the listener can readily and uniquely com- pute on this occasion, on the basis of their mutual knowledge, in such a way that the parent noun (e.g. porch or Houdini) denotes one role in the state, event, or process, and the remaining surface arguments of the denominal verb denote others of its roles. This convention accounts for the meaning and acceptability of innovative verbs in various contexts; similar conventions may be needed to account for other innovative uses of language.* One remarkable aspect of our capacity to use language is our ability to create and understand expressions we have never heard before; we will call these INNOVA- TIONS. In the right contexts, we readily understand He enfant terrible'd gracefully (said of a workshop participant), or Ruling in death of Ferrari woman (newspaper headline referring to a woman whose will stipulated that she be buried in her Ferrari), or Never ask two China trips to the same dinner party (cartoon caption referring to people who had taken trips to China)-even though we have never before heard enfant terrible used as a verb, Ferrari woman used as a compound noun, or China trips used as a shorthand expression.
  • A Construction Approach to Innovative Verbs in Japanese*

    A Construction Approach to Innovative Verbs in Japanese*

    A construction approach to innovative verbs in Japanese* NATSUKO TSUJIMURA and STUART DAVIS Abstract Innovative verbs in Japanese are formed from nouns of various sources includ- ing loanwords, Sino-Japanese nouns, mimetics, and proper names. Regardless of their different origin, these innovative denominal verbs exhibit a collection of intriguing properties, ranging from phonological, morphological, to seman- tic and pragmatic. These properties are not strictly predictable from the com- ponent parts including the nature of the parent noun and verbal morphology. Such an unpredictable nature is suggestive of a constructional analysis. The form-meaning-function complex takes a templatic representation, which ex- presses the phonological and morphological characteristics, and associated with it are semantic and pragmatic properties. These phonological, morpho- logical, semantic, and pragmatic properties combine to capture the nature of innovative denominal verbs as a construction. The analysis supports the idea of applying construction grammar to morphology along the lines of the devel- oping field of construction morphology (e.g., Booij 2005, 2007, 2009a, 2009b). We further show how insights from templatic (or prosodic) morphology (e.g., McCarthy and Prince 1986, 1990) can be conceptualized in terms of construc- tion grammar. * Acknowledgements: We would like to thank Adam Albright, Adele Goldberg, and Satoshi Ue- hara for their helpful comments on an earlier version of this paper.

  • Reflections on Noun-To-Verb Conversion in English*

    Reflections on Noun-To-Verb Conversion in English*

    Reflections on Noun-to-Verb Conversion In English* HEIKE BAESKOW Abstract English denominal verbs formed by conversion adopt complex morpho- syntactic and semantic information in a rather mysterious way. For exam- ple, the lexical item bottle is unambiguously interpreted as a referential expression in a sentence like John bought a bottle of wine, but how do we account for the event-reading of the same lexical item in a sentence like John bottled the wine? In this study it will be argued that the lexical information of converted denominal verbs is not provided by an unspecified zero-affix, but by conceptual qualia structures, i. e. by modes of explana- tion, and that these make explicit the implicit knowledge speakers of Eng- lish have about the referents of nominal bases and determine the interpreta- tion and formation of the corresponding verbs. Moreover, qualia structures yield not only the basic meanings of denominal verbs, but also allow for context-dependent interpretations, which are a result of coercion (e. g. John bottled the spectators). A mapping relation between qualia struc- tures and argument structures, the latter of which are part of the lexical representation of the denominal verbs, will be established by meaning pos- tulates. Keywords: word-formation, conversion, lexicon, qualia structures, coercion, proto-roles * I would like to thank Gisa Rauh, Thilo Tappe, Stefan Engelberg, Colin Foskett, Patrick Deegan, the participants of the linguistic colloquium held at the University of Wupper- tal and two anonymous reviewers for helpful comments on this study. Remaining mis- takes are however my responsibility.

    Some Problems in the Translation of Converted Denominal Verbs from Nouns Denoting Animate Beings'

    M. I. BAL1EIRO FERNPNDEZ-PROBLEMS IN TilE TRANSLATION OF CONVERTED DENOMINAL VERBS SOME PROBLEMS IN THE TRANSLATION OF CONVERTED DENOMINAL VERBS FROM NOUNS DENOTING ANIMATE BEINGS'. M' ISABEL BALTEIRO FERNANDEZ U niversidad de Santiago 1. INTRODUCTION As the title indicates, this paper is primarily concerned with translation problems, those of converted denominal verbs from nouns denoting animate beings. But what do I mean by converted denominal verbs? Converted denominal verbs are those verbs which are the resut of conversion processes in which a noun has undergone a change in grammatical category (from noun to verb), no change in form being acknowledged. As Quirk et al. (1985: 1558) have defmed it, conversion is then "the derivational process whereby an item is adapted or converted to a new class without the addition of an affix". This seems to be a quite productive (and therefore important) word-formation process as far as English language is concerned. And this is so for several reasons: a) it allows the creation of new items by using words already existing in the language; b) it allows language users to effectively communicate what they have in mind; c) it allows economy of expression, coherence, and precision. In Spanish, however, this tendency to form new words from already existing ones without the addition of an affix does not seem to be so marked. Having explained the object of study, it seems necessary to explain at this point why the study of these verbs in translation is interesting: Firsdy. as we have just said, since the tendency to form converted verbs in Spanish is apparently less pronounced than in English, and, as Baker (1992: 11) argues, there is no one-to-one correspondence between orthographic words and elements of meaning within or across languages, it seems interesting to look at the ways in which these items should be translated.

    Creative Spaces Within Which People, Ideas and Systems Interact with Uncertain Outcomes

    GIMPEL, NIELSE GIMPEL, Explores new ways to understand the dynamics of change and mobility in ideas, people, organisations and cultural paradigms China is in flux but – as argued by the contributors to this volume – change is neither new to China nor is it unique to that country; similar patterns are found in other times and in other places. Indeed, Creative on the basis of concrete case studies (ranging from Confucius to the Vagina Monologues, from Protestant missionaries to the Chinese N & BAILEY avant-garde) and drawing on theoretical insights from different dis- ciplines, the contributors assert that change may be planned but the outcome can never be predicted with any confidence. Rather, there Spaces exist creative spaces within which people, ideas and systems interact with uncertain outcomes. As such, by identifying a more sophisticated Seeking the Dynamics of Change in China approach to the complex issues of change, cultural encounters and Spaces Creative so-called globalization, this volume not only offers new insights to scholars of other geo-cultural regions; it also throws light on the workings of our ‘global’ and ‘transnational’ lives today, in the past and in the future.
