Abstract

In this paper, we examine the structure of Southern Min (SM) post-verbal negation. Contra Wang (2008), we analyze postverbal negation as an instance of a Serial Verb Construction (SVC), rather than a Resultative Verb Construction (RVC), based on a comparison between the behavior of RVCs and SVCs in SM.
