Abstract

This paper argues that tso in Changde dialect is a sentence final particle and its use may trigger an implied clause. It is observed that tso is only allowed in a suggestive imperative, restricted to co-occurring with the adverb ɕian先 ‘first’. Besides, xa下or ta哒alternately appears in a tso-suffixed sentence. A comparison of tso in Changde dialecct to zhe in Mandarin on the one hand and to tşe in Longhui dialect on the other hand shows that tso has similarities to and differences from both. While zhe is an aspectual particle, it may also trigger an implicit meaning in [V+zhe] construction. Although both of tso and tşe can be used as sentence final particles to introduce a sequential event implicitly, the use of tso is more constrained than tşe.
触发隐含子句:常德话左宗棠的启示
本文认为常德方言的tso是句尾助词,它的使用可能引发隐含从句。据观察,tso只被允许出现在暗示祈使句中,仅限于与副词ɕian同时出现先 ‘第一个”。此外,xa下或ta哒交替出现在一个有tso后缀的句子中。将常德方言的tso与普通话的zh和隆回方言的tşe进行比较,可以看出两者既有相似之处,也有不同之处。zhe是一个体粒子,它也可能引发[V+zhe]结构中的隐含意义。尽管tso和tşe都可以用作句子的词尾助词来隐含地引入顺序事件,但tso的使用比tşe更受限制。
