Adjektivphrasen Im Deutschen Und Koreanischen

ISBN: 9783484304826 出版年：2011 页码：144 Choe, Jiyoung De Gruyter

Although adjectives (or their semantic equivalents) figure in many languages (including German and Korean) as independent parts of speech in their own right, language-specific morphosyntactic differences have hitherto militated against referring to adjectives as a universal part of speech. Proceeding from a semantic-cum-functional adjective definition as the foundation for a possibly universal category 'adjective', the study elaborates functional categories explaining language-specific phenomena as instances of parametric variation, thus contributing to a universalist description of sentence structure.
