“…18. The Scandinavian reference grammars use the following terms: subjektslyfting 'subject raising' (Faarlund et al 1997, subjekt med infinitiv 'subject with infinitive' (Teleman et al 1999, 1:227) and subjekt med nominal infinitiv 'subject with nominal infinitive' (Hansen & Heltoft 2011, 1432. Ørsnes (2013) discusses the claim made by Boye (2002) that some of the raising passives in Danish are not really regular passives but grammaticalized evidentiality markers (see also Noël & Colleman (2009)).…”

Passive with control and raising in mainland Scandinavian

This article gives an overview of the use of non-local passives in mainland Scandinavian, i.e. passives where the subject of the first verb is a thematic argument of a second verb. Three factors are important: whether V1 is a control verb or a raising passive, whether V2 is a passive participle or an infinitive and whether the passive is morphological or periphrastic. Danish and Norwegian allow passive control verbs such as forsøge ‘try’ with passive participles whereas this pattern is only found with semi-control verbs like begära ‘request’ in Swedish. In Swedish there is an alternative strategy for strict control verbs, viz. active control verb plus passive infinitive. All three languages allow both passive infinitival complements and passive participles with raising passives such as påstås ‘is claimed’. These passive constructions need to be distinguished from so called long passives and double passives where a passive feature on either V1 or V2 can spread to the adjacent verb.

“…The same holds true for the largest works on Danish grammar. In Hansen & Heltoft's (2011) introduction to Grammatik over det Danske Sprog [Grammar of the Danish language], the authors describe seeking to include neglected areas of study in their work. These include småord [little/small words] that feature prominently in spoken discourse, since det er uomgaengeligt for en funktionel grammatik at få dem med i beskrivelsen [it is unavoidable for a work on functional grammar to include them in the description] (Hansen & Heltoft 2011:12).…”

However, sådan is absent from Hansen & Heltoft's (2011) sections dedicated to DPMs (they use the term dialogiske partikler [dialogic particles], see Section 2 above). Similarly, sådan does not make the list of 'most common' discourse particles in Lundskaer-Nielsen & Holmes's (2010) Danish: A Comprehensive Grammar.…”

“…Discourse-pragmatic marker research on the Danish language comprises about one to two dozen studies focused on words and phrases including altså, du ved, nok and vel (see Section 3.2 below). However, 25 years after Andersen (1986) called Danish discourse particles sprogvidenskabens stedbørn [linguistics' stepchildren], Hansen & Heltoft (2011:1109 acknowledged they were dårligt udforsket [poorly researched], even within the well-established grammarian tradition (Watts 1988, Jakobsen 1995, Engberg-Pedersen et al 1996. The lexical item sådan (glossed as 'such' or 'like this/that') is no exception to this relative lack of attention.…”

Vi snakker sådan: An analysis of the Danish discourse-pragmatic markersådan

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The last three decades have witnessed increasing interest in discourse-pragmatic markers (DPMs), both with regards to their high frequency in spoken discourse and their multifunctionality in interaction. Most studies have centered on English, with studies on Danish restricted to a handful of previous interactional discourse analyses. This paper is a preliminary investigation of the Danish word sådan (commonly glossed as ‘such’ or ‘like this/that’). A qualitative, form-based, discourse analytic approach is undertaken on over 40 minutes of naturally occurring Danish talk to argue that sådan qualifies as a DPM. In service of textual, subjective, and intersubjective macro-functions, sådan illustrates; exemplifies; marks hesitation; approximates a quantity; mitigates, hedges, or softens; and allows self-correction or self-repair. These findings are discussed in terms of their implications for sådan’s place in the Danish DPM system and our understanding of DPMs across languages.

“…Modern dictionaries do not mention the construction, and in Nguyen (2020a, 2 A reviewer suggests that in (2), rundt and the unstressed verb sejle 'sail' together form a complex predicate (which typically consist of an unstressed verb and a stressed element, see e.g. E. Hansen and Heltoft 2019). However, it seems to be irrelevant to the word class of rundt whether or not it participates in forming complex predicates.…”
