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 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xAdverbials 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xAdverb. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xAdverbials. 676 $a415.76 700 $aLiu$b Mingya$01197531 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910959901003321 996 $aMultidimensional semantics of evaluative adverbs$94322106 997 $aUNINA
