Tungkol sa ebook na ito
This volume reviews a range of fascinating linguistic facts about ingestive predicates in the worlds languages. The highly multifaceted nature of eat and drink events gives rise to interesting clausal properties of these predicates, such as the atypicality of transitive constructions involving eat and drink in some languages. The two verbs are also sources for a large number of figurative uses across languages with meanings such as destroy, and savour, as well as participating in a great variety of idioms which can be quite opaque semantically. Grammaticalized extensions of these predicates also occur, such as the quantificational use of Hausa shaa 'drink meaning (roughly) do X frequently, regularly. Specialists discuss details of the use of these verbs in a variety of languages and language families: Australian languages, Papuan languages, Athapaskan languages, Japanese, Korean, Hausa, Amharic, Hindi-Urdu, and Marathi.
