On the Uncertain and Weak Inference of"Jiran(既然)p Dehua(的话),Name(那么)q"Sentence
"Jiran(既然)p dehua(的话),name(那么)q"is a special complex sentence,which belongs to the heterogeneous combination of"inference+hypothesis".Both"jiran(既然)p,name(那么)q"sentence and"ruguo(如果)p dehua(的话),name(那么)q"sentence belong to causal complex sentences,both of which have inferential semantics,and the common semantics contribute to the generation of interface.At the same time,the specific expression needs of the speaker also contribute to the heterogeneous combination of the two types of complex sentences.Under the effect of the semantic interface and pragmatic priority principle,these two types of complex sentences are conceptually integrated and recombined into the uncertain and weak inference sentence"jiran(既然)p dehua(的话),name(那么)q".The uncertain and weak inference used to explain the meaning of the sentence is an inherent characteristic of Chinese complex sentences,which are inherited and productive.In addition,the postposition hypothesis marker enters the position an the end of the preceding clause of other complex sentences,which also means that there may be three subjective viewpoints between the preceding and following clauses of the same level.
