Previous studies have revealed that Chinese NCLs have a function of introducing topics into discourses. These studies have also explicated that various nouns can be introduced as topics by using NCLs. However, it is necessary to investigate further exactly on the scope of nouns with respect to the Chinese NCLs' function of introducing topics. This study clarifies this phenomenon, showing that all nouns apply to the function except for the relative and the body part unique to the speaker, such as his/her father and his/her heart. |
