Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper › peer-review

Abstract

This study, concentrating on multi-focus usages of scalar additive particles, such as English even, mo in Japanese and to in Korean, shows that they signal the survival of a correlational continuum in a scalar model despite the described unexpected event. This analysis, building upon the scalar model proposed by Fillmore, et al (1988) and Kay's (1990) analysis of even, extends Shudo's analysis (1998, 2002) of mo and claims that even behaves like scalar mo and to.
