概述

This course aims to investigate the interface interactions among morphology, syntax and semantics of Chinese and Chinese dialects in order to show what empirical and theoretical impacts Chinese and Chinese dialects can impose on the study of human languages. First, we will introduce the basic syntactic and semantic properties of Chinese and Chinese dialects under the framework of principle and parameter approach and formal semantics. Second, we will choose some specific topics and, by doing investigation on them, we want to show how syntax and semantics induce our curiosity on the human cognitive system and why languages are interesting and deserve study.
