Focusing mainly on classifiers, Numeral Classifiers and Classifier
Languages offers a deep investigation of three major classifier
languages: Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. This book provides
detailed discussions well supported by empirical evidence and
corpus analyses. Theoretical hypotheses regarding differences and
commonalities between numeral classifier languages and other mainly
article languages are tested to seek universals or typological
characteristics. The essays collected here from leading scholars in
different fields promise to be greatly significant in the field of
linguistics for several reasons. First, it targets three
representative classifier languages in Asia. It also provides
critical clues and suggests solutions to syntactic, semantic,
psychological, and philosophical issues about classifier
constructions. Finally, it addresses ensuing debates that may arise
in the field of linguistics in general and neighboring
inter-disciplinary areas. This book should be of great interest to
advanced students and scholars of East Asian languages.
