This analysis proves to be more advantageous than existing analysis in terms of empirical coverage and explanatory power. With the case of evaluative adverbs, the book demonstrates how secondary meanings (e.g. conventional presuppositions, conventional implicatures) interact with primary meanings (i.e. main assertion, or at-issue content). For the first time, a three-dimensional formal language of conventional implicatures and conventional presuppositions is implemented and applied to derive the right truth conditions of sentences with evaluative adverbs and predict their projection behaviors. With a cross-linguistic perspective (focusing on German, English and Mandarin Chinese) and using corpus- and psycholinguistic methods, the book also offers new perspectives on the syntax/semantics/pragmatics of adverbials. 410 0$aCurrent Research in the Semantics / Pragmatics Interface$v26. 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xAdverb 606 $aSemantics 606 $aLanguage arts 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xAdverb. 615 0$aSemantics. 615 0$aLanguage arts. 676 $a401.43 700 $aLiu$b Mingya$01197531 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825800903321 996 $aMultidimensional semantics of evaluative adverbs$93984824 997 $aUNINA
