Children’s Acquisition of Evidentiality
This paper is concerned with the acquisition of the semantics and pragmatics of evidentiality. Evidentiality markers encode the speaker’s source for the information being reported in the utterance. While languages like English express evidentiality in lexical markers (I saw that it was raining vs. I heard that it was raining), other languages grammaticalize evidentiality. In Turkish, for all in...
متن کاملThe acquisition of evidentiality in Turkish
This paper is concerned with the acquisition of the semantics and pragmatics of evidential markers in Turkish. Evidential markers encode the speaker’s source for the information being reported in the utterance. Turkish grammaticalizes evidentiality in two different past tense markers: -DI (past of direct experience) and –mIş (past of indirect experience). In this article, we report findings fro...
متن کاملThe Acquisition of Evidentiality and Source Monitoring
Evidential markers encode the source of a speaker’s knowledge. While some languages express evidentiality by lexical markers (e.g. I saw that it was raining vs. I heard that it was raining), about a quarter of world’s languages grammaticalize evidentiality through specialized markers. For instance, Turkish obligatorily marks all instances of past reference with one of the following two suffixes...
متن کاملUnderstanding different sources of information: the acquisition of evidentiality.
This paper investigates six- to nine-year-old children's acquisition of evidentiality. In two minimally different tasks we assess whether children can be made to use a particular source of information by presenting them with a specific evidential term. That is, we assess whether children have an explicit awareness of the source requirement of the evidential terms. The results demonstrate that c...
متن کاملEntailment due to Syntactically Encoded Semantic Relationships
The majority of the state-of-the-art approaches to recognizing textual entailment focus on defining a generic approach to RTE. A generic approach never works well for every single entailment pair: there are entailment pairs that are recognized poorly by all the generic systems. Automatic identification of such entailment pairs and applying to them an RTE algorithm that is specific to them could...
