The Syntax of V-V Resultatives in Mandarin Chinese[electronic resource] /by Jianxun Liu. - 1st ed. 2021. - IX, 125 p. 170 illus.online resource.

Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: The generation of resultative V-V compounds -- Chapter 3: The syntactic structure of Mandarin V-V resultatives: An event-mapping approach -- Chapter 4: The external argument and alternations of V-V resultatives -- Chapter 5: Concluding Remarks. .

This book addresses the three fundamental properties of V-V resultative constructions in Mandarin Chinese: their generation, their syntactic structure, and their alternations. This book is original and new in the following aspects. First, adopting the ‘inner vs. outer domain’ theory, it provides new analysis and evidence that these compounds are generated in syntax, not in lexicon. Second, this book argues that the two subclasses of V-V resultative constructions, object-oriented vs. subject-oriented V-V resultatives, actually have different structures. Their syntactic contrasts have not been observed in the literature before. Third, this book is new in determining the syntactic structure of the V-V resultative constructions through their adverbial modification properties. It demonstrates that the previous isomorphism analysis of the syntactic structure of Chinese V-V resultatives does not hold. Finally, this book provides a new analysis of the issue of the alternations of V-V resultatives. In contrast to previous analyses, which generally view the causative alternation as the idiosyncratic property of particular V-V compounds, this book provides a principled analysis. This book makes a substantial improvement of the current understanding of the issues in the syntax of Mandarin Chinese and gives new support to certain theories of the generative grammar from the perspective of Mandarin Chinese.
