Abstract

This paper concerns the adverb, tōngcháng, which can be placed in the topic position, at the beginning of a sentence or in the preverbal position. It will be analyzed as a verbal plurality marker at the occasion level in the framework of Cusic [1]. We will identify the adverb in these two positions as having different semantic properties, namely habituality and iterativity, as defined Bertinetto and Lenci [2]. We will demonstrate the function of tōngcháng when co-occuring with NP subjects with individual or kind denotation.
