Produktbeschreibung
This book offers a comprehensive and multi-faceted examination of Chinese inter-clausal anaphora, with a particular focus on conditional sentences. Building upon the foundational observations of Yuen Ren Chao (1968) and subsequent competing explanations, this book aims to provide a more nuanced understanding of this language-specific phenomenon.

This work uniquely bridges descriptive and explanatory adequacy, offering both a detailed account of the patterns observed in Chinese inter-clausal anaphora and a range of potential explanations for these patterns. By complementing formal linguistic analysis with quantitative methods and exploring connections to different theoretical approaches, this book provides a comprehensive and innovative perspective to understanding a complex linguistic phenomenon.
