Product information "Mermaid Construction"

This volume examines the unusual mermaid construction in eighteen languages of Asia and Africa. This construction looks biclausal superficially, but it is monoclausal syntactically. Its prototype has a compound predicate which contains an independent noun, and its predicate has a modal, evidential, aspectual, temporal, stylistic or discourse-related meaning. This volume shows how a noun may be reanalyzed to become a constituent of a predicate.
