| 要約: | The particle pun in modern Indonesian and Malaysian receives a minimalist treatment in grammars and handbooks. The common view is that pun marks the subject of a clause and gives it emphasis. The role of pun, in fact, is much more complex. This article describes the word categories with which pun can be combined, the syntactic functions of pun (including the modifying of predicates and objects, as well as acting as conjunction between clauses), and the variety of meanings that pun and its derivatives (some 25 of them: adapun, andaipun, ... sungguhpun) give the discourse, that is, comparison, temporal sequence, indefiniteness, and concession. The corpus of texts that has been used encompasses the main idioms used, mainly in written form, in Indonesia and Malaysia from the early 20th century to the early 21st. |
