Contents:
Frontmatter -- Table of contents -- I. Introduction -- 1. Introduction: Final particles from a typological perspective -- II. Discourse Analysis & Conversation Analysis -- 2. Sentence-final adverbials: Recurrent types and usage -- 3. Taking an interactional perspective on final particles: the case of Finnish mutta (‘but’) -- 4. Final particles in spoken German -- III. Grammaticalization -- 5. Some observations on the evolution of final particles -- 6. The evolution of Japanese toka in utterance-final position -- 7. Two Types of conditionals and Two Different Grammaticalization Paths -- 8. The emergence of utterance-final particles in Korean -- 9. Grammaticalization of final but: from conjunction to final particle -- IV. Cognitive Approaches -- 10. Dutch particles in the right periphery -- 11. A relevance-theoretic perspective on the Norwegian utterance-final particles da and altså compared to their English counterpart then -- 12. The Northern Russian utterance-final particle dak as an information-structuring device -- 13. A study of three particles in Khmer: tɨv, mɔɔk, coh -- V. Generative Approaches -- 14. Particles and Parameters in Wh-Questions -- 15. On sentential particles: A crosslinguistic study -- 16. Circumstantial PPs and the middle field in Japanese -- 17. Word order and the syntax of question particles -- Subject index -- Author index
Summary: This volume brings together sixteen in-depth studies of final particles in various languages of the world, offering a rich variety of approaches to this still relatively underresearched class of elements. The volume is of interest to typologists, to experts in syntax and the analysis of spoken language, and to linguists studying the form and function of final particles in single languages. Final particles offers an overview of the different types of final particles found in typologically distinct languages, different methological approaches to the study of final particles, and of typical grammaticalization pathways that these elements have taken in different languages.
