Varieties of Alternatives: Focus Particles and wh-Expressions in Mandarin - Frontiers in Chinese Linguistics Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2018 edition

This book concerns two focus particles (jiu, dou) and wh-expressions (shenme = 'what', na geren = 'which person') in Mandarin Chinese. An idea based on alternatives and varieties of alternatives in particular - following Chierchia's 2013 analysis of the polarity system - is pursued to account for the systematic ambiguities.
