摘要
他加禄语的能力/非自愿行为(aia)动词形式传达了明显不相关的模态含义:例如,一个行为是在一个代理可以做的范围内,或者它超出了代理可以控制的范围。最近对马达加斯加和St ' át ' imcets的这种形式的对应分析表明,这种形态有助于间接情态,并大致传达了所描述的事件遵循一系列事实(Davis et al., 2009;Paul et al., 2016)。我们讨论了将这种类型的分析扩展到他加禄语的一些挑战,并提出了一个替代建议。我们遵循先前的分析,假设aia形式从一组事实中投射出它的可能性域,但通过提出(i)他加禄语aia形式的模态成分是非争议的,以及(ii)它通过预设传达,鉴于所描述的事件被认为是因果依赖的事实,这个事件是不被期望的,从而与这些分析不同。
Causes and Expectations: On the Interpretation of the Tagalog Ability/Involuntary Action Form
The Tagalog Ability/Involuntary Action (aia) verbal form conveys apparently unrelated modal meanings: that an action was within what an agent could do or that it was beyond what an agent could control, for instance. Recent analyses for the Malagasy and St’át’imcets counterparts of this form propose that this morphology contributes circumstantial modality and conveys, roughly, that the event described follows from a set of facts ( Davis et al., 2009; Paul et al., 2016). We discuss some challenges for extending this type of analysis to Tagalog and present an alternative proposal. We follow previous analyses in assuming that the aia form projects its domain of possibilities from a set of facts, but depart from these analyses by proposing (i) that the modal component of the Tagalog aia form is non-at-issue and (ii) that it conveys, via a presupposition, that this event was not expected given the facts that the described event is taken to causally depend on.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Semantics aims to be the premier journal in semantics. It covers all areas in the study of meaning, with a focus on formal and experimental methods. The Journal welcomes submissions on semantics, pragmatics, the syntax/semantics interface, cross-linguistic semantics, experimental studies of meaning (processing, acquisition, neurolinguistics), and semantically informed philosophy of language.
