Research Abstract |
In the present research project, we conducted some large-scale cross-linguistic/cross-dialectal investigations into the categorization and grammaticalization in East Asian languages. The eight members of the project, the six given above, together with Masaru Inoue (The National Institute for Japanese Language) and Izumi Hoshi (Tokyo University of Foreign Studies), had regular meetings each year. In 2005, the last year of the project, the project leader organized a workshop called "Contrastive Studies of Grammaticalization and Categorization in East Asian Languages : with Special Reference to Voice and Spatial Expressions" at the 131^<st> Annual Meeting of the Linguistic Society of Japan, where the project members read papers on the grammaticalization of verbs of giving in the Chinese dialects, on the typology of passives in Japanese, Chinese and Korean, and on the categorization and grammaticalization in Vietnamese and Chinese. More specific research activities by the project members ar

e as follows. KIMURA researched on "structuralization and categorization" in some voice-related phenomena, and KIMURA and YANG on the grammaticalization of verbs of giving into passive markers in Chinese. WASHIO conducted a cross-linguistic research on issues related to resultatives, passives and unaccusativity, drawing on data from languages like Dutch, French, Classical/Modern Japanese, Korean and Mongolian. INOUE, working on Japanese, Chinese and Korean, suggested a typology of passives based on notions like "affect" and "become." OGOSHI identified some constraints on the use of passive expressions in Korean. LAMARRE researched into the rise of grammatical categories and the mechanisms of grammaticalization regarding modality and spatial expressions in some Chinese dialects, Vietnamese, Thai and Japanese. MURAKAMI worked on processes of grammaticalization such as the "adverbialization" of directional verbs in Vietnamese, comparing them with their possible counterparts in Japanese and Chinese. HOSHI researched on nominalizing affixes from a perspective of grammaticalization, with focus on the semantic changes observed in some verbal constructions involving nominalizing affixes. Less
