Description

Explore the complexities of language evolution with Grammaticalization and Language Change in Chinese: A formal view. Published by Routledge as part of the Routledge Studies in Asian Linguistics, this book offers a fresh look at how grammaticalization functions within the Chinese language. Author Xiu-Zhi Zoe Wu examines the general linguistic principles that drive grammaticalization, a phenomenon found in all world languages. By connecting these principles to the modeling of language in formal theoretical syntax, this study addresses two significant gaps in current linguistic research. This work provides new insights into a wide range of grammatical topics and explains the mechanics of language change. It is a valuable resource for students and researchers looking to understand the formal theoretical approaches to how Chinese evolves over time.
