A Semantic Map for Imperative-Hortatives

Abstract

This chapter is about similarities and differences in the way languages express orders, requests and exhortations. It crucially employs a so-called ‘semantic map’. The concept of the semantic map will be presented in section 2.1. Section 2.2 sketches some issues in the study of Imperatives and Imperative-like constructions. In section 2.3 a semantic map is proposed that yields some insights in the study of Imperatives and Imperative-like structures.
