Abstract

In addition to denoting disposal, ka in Taiwan Southern Min has other functions such as introducing goal, source, benefactive, and adversative. Like the disposal ka-construction, the ka NP in goal/source ka constructions is semantically related to the postverbal object. Compared with the disposal ka-construction, goal/source ka-constructions sometimes require one more postverbal argument. As for benefactive/adversative ka-constructions, they differ from the other ka-constructions in that the benefactive/adversative argument is often optional. This paper discusses the non-disposal ka constructions, and it argues that Lin's (2010) account of the disposal ka-construction can be applied to account for goal/source ka-constructions. The benefactive ka-construction and the adversative ka-construction are semantically related, and they also have the same structure. To sum up, among the four types of non-disposal ka construction, two of them (goal and source) are argued to have the same structure as that for a disposal ka-construction, and the benefactive/adversative ka-constructions have their own distinctive structure.

台湾南民非弃置ka *

台湾闽南语中的“ka”除了表示处置外，还具有目的、来源、有益、不利等功能。目的/源ka结构中的ka NP与后置宾语在语义上是相关的。与弃用ka结构相比，目的/源ka结构有时需要多一个后语论证。至于有利/不利的ka结构，它们与其他ka结构的不同之处在于，有利/不利的论点往往是可选的。本文讨论了非处置性ka结构，并认为Lin(2010)对处置性ka结构的解释可以用于解释目标/源ka结构。有利构式和不利构式在语义上是相关的，它们也具有相同的结构。综上所述，在四种类型的非处置性ka结构中，目的和来源两种类型的ka结构与处置性ka结构相同，而有益/不利ka结构则有其独特的结构。

期刊介绍： Taiwan Journal of Linguistics is an international journal dedicated to the publication of research papers in linguistics and welcomes contributions in all areas of the scientific study of language. Contributions may be submitted from all countries and are accepted all year round. The language of publication is English. There are no restrictions on regular submission; however, manuscripts simultaneously submitted to other publications cannot be accepted. TJL adheres to a strict standard of double-blind reviews to minimize biases that might be caused by knowledge of the author’s gender, culture, or standing within the professional community. Once a manuscript is determined as potentially suitable for the journal after an initial screening by the editor, all information that may identify the author is removed, and copies are sent to at least two qualified reviewers. The selection of reviewers is based purely on professional considerations and their identity will be kept strictly confidential by TJL. All feedback from the reviewers, except such comments as may be specifically referred to the attention of the editor, is faithfully relayed to the authors to assist them in improving their work, regardless of whether the paper is to be accepted, accepted upon minor revision, revised and resubmitted, or rejected.
