Utilizing an extensive database of coordinating conjunctions, including first-hand data from 234 Chinese dialects and 45 non-Sinitic languages, as well as 830 sets of second-hand data, this research aims to reconstruct the primary grammaticalization paths of coordinating conjunctions in Sinitic languages while making typological generalizations and classifications. The study contributes to the understanding of how coordinating conjunctions develop in various languages and sheds light on the typological patterns that emerge across languages. 0aLinguistics. 0aLinguisticsxMethodology. 0aHistorical linguistics.14aTheoretical Linguistics / Grammar.24aResearch Methods in Language and Linguistics.24aHistorical Linguistics.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978981976756408iPrinted edition:z978981976758808iPrinted edition:z978981976759540uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-97-6757-1
