商品簡介
This volume explores "use-conditional meaning." It purports to follow "empirical and theoretical studies of expression whose meaning falls outside standard realm of truth-conditional semantics." The nine essays give the truth about lies, including an introduction to varieties of use-conditional meaning, German non-inflectional constructions as separate performatives, modal particles and context shift, discourse particles and common ground (and felicity conditions), expressive mean free datives and F-implications, good reasons (for conventional implication), common ground management through modal particles, illocution, biased polar questions in English and Japanese, and expressing surprise in particles.
