초록

Most of the studies on English clefts have been made under the assumption that two types of clefts exist independently and their categories are discrete. Unlike these trends, this study is based on Aarts's (2007) ‘gradience', assuming that there are blurred boundaries between two categories of linguistic structures and syntactic forms should be analyzed in terms of the continuum of meaning between the core and periphery of the structures. By adopting this assumption, the study has advantages that this approach can explain effectively the phenomena that the opposite approach fails to. The purpose of this study is to show that the gradience perspective allows us to explain the differences of grammaticality by different syntactic categories in focus position of clefts. It demonstrates that the varying degrees of grammaticality lying both within one type of clefts and between two types of clefts are ascribed to accumulated gradiences, including categorial combinations of semantic features like nouniness and verbiness and specification effects on the specificational reading of clefts.

Abstract

Most of the studies on English clefts have been made under the assumption that two types of clefts exist independently and their categories are discrete. Unlike these trends, this study is based on Aarts's (2007) ‘gradience', assuming that there are blurred boundaries between two categories of linguistic structures and syntactic forms should be analyzed in terms of the continuum of meaning between the core and periphery of the structures. By adopting this assumption, the study has advantages that this approach can explain effectively the phenomena that the opposite approach fails to. The purpose of this study is to show that the gradience perspective allows us to explain the differences of grammaticality by different syntactic categories in focus position of clefts. It demonstrates that the varying degrees of grammaticality lying both within one type of clefts and between two types of clefts are ascribed to accumulated gradiences, including categorial combinations of semantic features like nouniness and verbiness and specification effects on the specificational reading of clefts.
