SAY-COMPLEMENTIZERS IN SINITIC LANGUAGES
Résumé
I treat the pathway of grammaticalization which leads to reanalysis of SAY verbs as the category of the complementizer in the case of Sinitic languages, casting an eye over the wider areal and crosslinguistic perspective. Each stage in this grammaticalization process is established in turn and a comparison made between Chinese dialects in terms of their variation in this respect.
