| Description | Despite lively discussion in the literature on Vietnamese, the behavior of question markers is still elusive. The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive and systematic view of Vietnamese question particles integrating novel generalisations concerning their distributional and interpretational properties. We also show how this description leads us to a deeper understanding of Vietnamese clause structure in general. |
