Grammaticalization and Subjectivization of Po
This paper investigates the grammaticalization of po on the basis of a survey on examples from Chinese classic works,and finds that: 1) the use of po shifted from an adjective to a degree adverb and a scope adverb;2) the use of po shifted from an objective scope adverb to a modal adverb.This paper focuses on the syntactic environment that triggered the grammaticalization of po and how it became a functional word.The increasing subjectivity of this functional word is also discussed.
