Jussives Sample Clauses

Jussives. Given the discussion in the previous section, I argue that Korean impera- tives, exhortatives, and promissives belong to a single clause type, jussive. The jussive clause type expresses a property which is required of some indi- vidual, metaphorically added to this individual’s “To-do List” (Han 1998, Xxxxxxx 1980, Xxxxxxx (2004), Xxxxxxx & Zanuttini 2002, Xxxxx 2003). A fundamental hypothesis in this paper is that imperatives, exhortatives, and promissives – while all being jussive in this sense – differ in the person of their subjects. When the subject is second person, referring to the addressee, the result is an imperative; when it is first person, the result is a promis- sive, and when it is first person inclusive of the addressee, it is an exhorta- tive. I hypothesize that the semantics of the jussive is built up from three components represented in the syntax. The first is a property P: in the case of (1a), the property of eating lunch. The second is a representation of the individual i to whose To-do list the property is to be added; in the case of (1a), an imperative, i is the addressee, while in the corresponding exhortative i would be the speaker and the addressee; in the corresponding promissive i would be the speaker. The third component is an intensional variable- binding operator Modal which binds i as well as the predicate’s world vari- able and makes it the case that the whole jussive denotes a property. Intui- tively, the resulting jussive clause denotes the property P restricted to the individual i. Example (1a) denotes the property of eating lunch restricted to the addressee, formally (8):
