Semantic constraint on preposition incorporation of postverbal locative PPs in Mandarin Chinese by Peck, Jeeyoung, Lin, Jingxia

“…Previous studies claim that adjunct phrases which quantify an event, such as event delimiters, may behave like arguments (“the delimiter hypothesis”). Yet, our observation of Chinese finds that adjunct locative PPs that are not an event delimiter (e.g. directional 向 xiàng/往 wǎng ‘toward’ PPs or non-directional 在 zài ‘at’ PPs) can also allow their prepositional object to appear as the verbal object. …”
