Superlative Objoid Constructions in British and American English

World Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates regional variation in Superlative Objoid constructions (SOCs) and their prepositional variant (at‐SOCs). SOCs combine a possessive pronoun with a superlative adjective. These function as manner‐degree modifiers in a context where the possessive is in postverbal position and correlative with the subject, as in they tried

Must Can: Double‐Modal Constructions in Hong Kong English

World Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Previous studies have focused on double‐modal constructions (DMs) in Englishes in the Inner Circle at the expense of the Outer Circle. Using data collected from internet forums and corpora, this study aims to narrow the research gap by examining DMs in Hong Kong English (HKE), an English variety in the Outer Circle.

Testing Copula Hypothesis with Copula Entropy

Testing copula hypothesis is of fundamental importance in the applications of copula theory. In this paper we proposed a copula hypothesis testing with copula entropy. Since copula entropy is a unified theory in probability and therefore testing copula hypothesis based on it can be applied to any types of copula function.
