In this book, Arakaki provides the first comprehensive analysis of Luchuan evidentials. She proposes that Luchuan has a grammatical evidential system which contains one Direct evidential and three indirect evidentials (Inference, Assumed, and Reportative). The discussion includes cross-linguistic issues such as how evidentiality is related to epistemic modality, with the intention that this work should constitute a contribution to the typological and theoretical study of evidentiality. This work will open new horizons for the study of evidentiality.Brill's Studies in Language, Cognition and Culture4.Japanese languageDialectsHistoryRyukyuan languageDialectsRyukyuan languageGrammar, ComparativeJapaneseRyukyuan languageGrammarRyukyuan languageTerms and phrasesElectronic books.Japanese languageDialectsHistory.Ryukyuan languageDialects.Ryukyuan languageGrammar, ComparativeJapanese.Ryukyuan languageGrammar.Ryukyuan language495.6Arakaki Tomoko936269MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452927403321Evidentials in Ryukyuan2109141UNINA01165nam 2200325z- 450 991069391410332120170513080909.0(CKB)5860000000029826(BIP)013381156(EXLCZ)99586000000002982620220406c2006uuuu -u- -engNorthern Ireland prospects for the peace process : hearing before the Subcommittee on Europe and Emerging Threats of the Committee on International Relations, House of Representatives, One Hundred Ninth Congress, first session, May 25, 20051 online resource (iii, 16 p.) 0-16-073990-X Northern Ireland Peace ProcessPeace movementsNorthern IrelandPeace-buildingNorthern IrelandNorthern IrelandPolitics and government1998-Northern IrelandHistory1998-Peace movementsNorthern irelandPolitical scienceHistoryPeace movementsPeace-buildingBOOK9910693914103321Northern Ireland455761UNINA
