- Japanese Wh-doublets as Metalinguistic Variables
- 概要：
-
This paper looks at the distribution and the semantic properties of 'wh-doublets' in the Tokyo dialect of Japanese such as "nani-nani" (what-what) and "dare-dare" (who-who). It first shows that they can only appear in certain kinds of quotation and then argues that they behave as a variable over referring expressions. The fomalization of their semantics is couched in a model theory for quotation that treats expressions as primitives, which is also proposed in the paper. This theory nicely captures the basic properties of quotation as well as the behavior of wh-doublets.

- A Unified Approach to Questions, Quantifiers and Coordination in Japanese
- 概要：
-
Inspired by the syntactic and semantic parallelism found in Japanese
between coordination and quantification (as expressed by wh-words in
combination with -mo/-ka, the conjunctive/disjunctive particles), and
between quantification and question, we investigate how these
constructions are uniformly analyzed, in our HPSG framework, as cases
where a parameter, denoted by a wh-word or a coordinated phrase, is
questioned or quantified for a predicate and present an HPSG
formalization of the analysis that can account for, among others, the
quantifier scope as marked by the position of the conjunctive particle
and the interaction of question and quantification.
