This working definition sets “middle construction” apart from “middle voice” in that it can be instantiated by various constructions in Chinese. By scrutinizing these constructions in the framework of Generative Syntax, the book concludes that their formation takes place at the lexical level, without resorting to any syntactic mechanisms and thus that Chinese falls into the category of “lexical middle languages”, which are in contrast to “syntactic middle languages”. 000824735 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed November 28, 2017). 000824735 650_0 $$aChinese language$$xVoice. 000824735 650_0 $$aChinese language$$xVerb. 000824735 650_0 $$aChinese language$$xSemantics. 000824735 650_0 $$aChinese language$$xSyntax. 000824735 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9789811061868 000824735 830_0 $$aFrontiers in Chinese linguistics ;$$vv. 2. 000824735 852__ $$bebk 000824735 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-10-6187-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000824735 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:824735$$pGLOBAL_SET 000824735 980__ $$aEBOOK 000824735 980__ $$aBIB 000824735 982__ $$aEbook 000824735 983__ $$aOnline 000824735 994__ $$a92$$bISE
