Comparative Analysis of Chinese-Vietnamese Counterfactual Conditionals Based on Constructive Grammar
Abstrak
Counterfactual conditional is a common linguistic phenomenon in linguistics. This paper compares and analyzes Chinese-Vietnamese counterfactual conditional based on constructive grammar, and finds out the essential differences between them. This paper analyzes three typical Chinese constructive grammar [hypothetical conjunction+negator +a,b], [hypothetical conjunction+a,b], [早知道zao zhi dao+ a,b], and three typical Vietnamese constructive grammar[counterfactual marker+a,b],[đã/đã...rồi],[hypothetical conjunction+a,b], and concludes that the Chinese and Vietnamese counterfactual conditionals are highly similar but with many distinctions. The main difference is that Chinese lacks mature counterfactual markers, while Vietnamese has obvious markers of counterfactual conditionals. which can also be used to realize the counterfactual meaning through negation, time and hypothetical conjunction.
