Abstract

Abstract This article presents a corpus-based overview of strategies of direct quotation that employ two similative demonstratives, tak ‘so’ and taki ‘such/like this’, in colloquial spoken Polish. It will be shown that the ways in which Polish tak and taki encode, respectively, manner and quality in exophoric, endophoric, and cataphoric uses are also reflected in their quotative uses. Further, special emphasis is placed on two verbless quotative strategies: (Conj) NP tak and (Conj) NP taki, to offer two grammaticalization-related accounts: one for tak and another for taki. As will be argued, (Conj) NP tak is a reduced clause (originally NP VERB tak), while (Conj) NP taki is a stacking of two independent quotative strategies: (Conj) NP on the one hand, and taki on the other. The study thus contributes to our understanding of how manner/quality expressions are recruited in clause-combining tasks involving the integration of direct quotes into speakers’ utterances.

波兰语比喻状语的引语用法
摘要 本文基于语料库概述了波兰口语中使用两个类比性状语 tak "如此 "和 taki "这样/像这样 "的直接引语策略。文章将指出,波兰语 tak 和 taki 在外显、内隐和拟人用法中分别表示方式和质量的方式也反映在它们的引语用法中。此外,我们还特别强调了两种无动词的引语策略:(Conj)NP tak 和(Conj)NP taki,以提供两种语法化相关的解释:一种是 tak,另一种是 taki。正如本文将论证的那样,(Conj) NP tak 是一个简化分句(最初是 NP VERB tak),而 (Conj) NP taki 则是两个独立引语策略的叠加:一方面是 (Conj) NP,另一方面是 taki。因此,本研究有助于我们理解,在涉及将直接引语整合到说话人语篇中的分句组合任务中,是如何使用方式/质量表达的。

期刊介绍: Linguistics publishes articles in the traditional subdisciplines of linguistics as well as in neighboring disciplines insofar as these are deemed to be of interest to linguists and other students of natural language. This includes grammar, both functional and formal, with a focus on morphology, syntax, and semantics, pragmatics and discourse, phonetics and phonology, psycholinguistics, and sociolinguistics. The focus may be on one or several languages, but studies with a wide crosslinguistic (typological) coverage are also welcome. The perspective may be synchronic or diachronic. Linguistics also publishes up to two special issues a year in these areas, for which it welcomes proposals.
