Chapter 12 Speech Act Constructions

• 12.1 Introduction
  • review Chapter 11-clausal information packaging
    • topic-comment packaging
    • thetic packaging
    • identificational packaging
  • speech act constructions
    • declarative
    • interrogative / questions
    • imperative-hortative
    • exclamative
    • could be expressed by declaratives
  • modality
    • deontic modality
    • epistemic modality
    • mirative
• 12.2 Polarity: Negation of Declaratives
  • an overt bound morpheme affiixed on the verb
  • overt nagative morpheme as an uninflected independent word form
  • verblike word
  • a tighter combination with the action verb
  • double negation strategy
  • existential negation construction
• 12.3 Interrogative Constructions
  • 12.3.1 functional types of questions
    • polarity questions
    • information questions
    • mainly focused
    • alternative questions
  • 12.3.2 strategies for interrogative constructions
    • for polarity questions
      • two common strategies
        • a distinct intonation contour
        • an overt interrogative particle
      • two rare strategies
        • A-not-A
        • a word order difference
    • for information qustions
      • an interrogative pronoun or modifier
  • 12.3.3 strategies for response constructions
    • for polarity questions
      • Yes/no strategy
      • Agree/disagree strategy
      • Yes/no/disagree strategy
      • echo strategy
    • for information questions
      • often uses ellipsis strategy
  • 12.3.4 relations with identificational constructions and the expression of (un)certainty
    • closely related to the identificational construction
      • missing or unknown information = the focus
      • the rest of the propositional content = POP
      • both an information questions and its answer = typical contexts
    • closely related to epistemic modal and evidentiality
• 12.4 Imperative-Hortative Construction
  • 12.4.1 Strategies for Imperativ-Hortative Construction
    • Person
      • conceptual space
    • politeness

      • a distinct negative marker
      • a distinct verb from
      • both
  • 12.4.2 The Relation of Deontic Modality and Predication to Imperative-Hortative Constructions
    • deranked
    • balanced
• 12.5 Exclamative Constructions
  • 12.5.1 Function and Strategies for the Exclamative Construction
    • the presupposed open proposition(POP)
      • a subordinate clause
      • a main clause
      • a referring phrase
    • the affective meaning
      • an affective predicate
      • a clause expressing incredulity
      • interjection
      • word order
      • prosody
    • scalar degree
      • interrogative
      • anaphoric degree form
      • referring phrase
  • 12.5.2 The Relation of Mirativity and Thetic Constructions to Exclamative Constructions
    • Garcia Macia's phychological theory of surprise
