摘要

英语一般被认为缺乏语法化的证据标记(Aikhenvald 2004. Evidentiality. Oxford: Oxford University Press)。然而,Mélac(2022.英语中证据性的语法化。English Language and Linguistics 26(2).331-359)认为 seem 和其他英语动词的某些用法已经语法化为证据性。他还提供了其他几个他称之为"(半)语法化 "证据的例子。在这篇文章中,我提供的证据表明,在特定语境中,当现在时和过去时可以任选其一时,英语在选择现在时和过去时时,以及在使用某些定语和指称特定个人的专有名词时,也有语法化的证据策略。相关语境涉及通过时态和限定词的选择来表达与信息来源广泛相关的特定观点。这一分析支持了 Figueras-Bates 和 Kotwica(2020 年)等研究人员的工作。引言:西班牙语中的证据性、认识性和缓解。Corpus Pragmatics 4. 1-9: 13)等人的研究成果,即证据性最好被视为 "一种话语-语用现象"。

Evidential strategies in English: not just lexical
English is generally considered to lack grammaticalized evidential markers (Aikhenvald 2004. Evidentiality. Oxford: Oxford University Press). However, Mélac (2022. The grammaticalization of evidentiality in English. English Language and Linguistics 26(2). 331–359) argues that certain uses of seem and other English verbs have grammaticalized as evidentials. He also offers several other examples of what he calls “(semi-)grammaticalized” evidentials. In this article I provide evidence that English also has grammaticalized evidential strategies in the choice between the present and past tenses when either is possible in a particular context, as well as in the use of certain determiners with proper names referring to specific individuals. The relevant contexts involve representation of particular points of view relating broadly to information source through tense and determiner choices. This analysis supports the work of researchers such as Figueras-Bates and Kotwica (2020. Introduction: Evidentiality, epistemicity and mitigation in Spanish. Corpus Pragmatics 4. 1–9: 13), among others, that evidentiality is best seen as “a discursive-pragmatic phenomenon.”

期刊介绍: Folia Linguistica covers all non-historical areas in the traditional disciplines of general linguistics (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics), and also sociological, discoursal, computational and psychological aspects of language and linguistic theory. Other areas of central concern are grammaticalization and language typology. The journal consists of scientific articles presenting results of original research, review articles, overviews of research in specific areas, book reviews, and a miscellanea section carrying reports and discussion notes. In addition, proposals from prospective guest editors for occasional special issues on selected current topics are welcomed.
