Focusing on the substitution and numeration of modern Chinese, this is the third volume of a classic on modern Chinese grammar by one of the most distinguished Chinese linguists. In this volume, the author first introduces the different types of pronoun, such as personal pronouns, indefinite pronouns, resumptive pronouns, demonstrative pronouns and interrogative pronouns. Methods of numeration in modern Chinese are then delineated, encompassing such perspectives as cardinal numbers, ordinal numbers and numeration systems of people, things and behaviors. Including a wide variety of examples and analysis, this book is a must read for both Chinese language learners as well as researchers and students studying Chinese linguistics and modern Chinese grammar.
