The Distribution and Function of Bulgarian Concessive Constructions.
- Authors
Leafgren, John
- Abstract
The article discusses two subcategorizations in the Bulgarian concessive constructions including the so-called "true concessives" from "hypothetical concessives" and concessive clauses based on what aspect of the higher clause the concession refers to. Topics discussed include the structure of Bulgarian concessive clauses and the distribution of concessive clauses, hypothetical versus true concessives, speech-act versus content concessives.
