Abstract |
Funamoto’s chapter explores the phenomenon of quantifying modifiers (qtm) in Japanese, elements specifying the quantity of things which function as modifiers inside the nominal group. They may also occur outside the nominal group in a ‘raised qtm construction’, where the qtm is ‘raised’ to a place where it appears to function as the element of the clause. Funamoto concludes that the functional syntax of this construction is motivated by two factors: (a) the choices of conditioning features from the transitivity network; and (b) the operation of placing the qtm in the focal region where it receives tonic prominence. |
