This volume provides general linguists with new data and analysis
on languages spoken in China regarding various aspects of space and
quantification, using different approaches. Contributions by
researchers from Mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Europe, the
United States and Australia offer insights on aspects of language
ranging from phonology and morphology to syntax and semantics,
while the approaches vary from formal, historical, areal,
typological, and cognitive linguistics to second language
acquisition. After separate volumes on space and quantification in
languages of China, the studies in this volume combine space and
quantification to allow readers a view of the intersection of the
two topics. Each article contributes to general linguistic
knowledge while discussing a particular aspect of space or
quantification in a particular language/dialect, offering new data
and analysis from languages that are spoken in the same
geographical area, and that belong to various language families
that exist and evolve in close contact with one another.
