Abstract
application/pdf
The relative clause has long been discussed in various linguistic studies. Its research, however, seems never to be over. This paper presents another discussion on relative clauses, which focuses on the definiteness of the antecedents of a particular kind of relative clause, i.e.relative clauses that include "partitives" such as all of whom or each of which. i first summarize basic features of ordinary relative clauses whose antecedents are indefinite ("indefinite" relative clause). Then, I examine Lawano's (2004) claim that partitive-including relative clauses are always indefinite ones. My conclusion against that of Kawano (2004) is that both definite and indefinite relative clauses can include partitives. I explain defferences in interpretation between two types of relative clauses, and argue, against Kawano's claim to the contrary, that indefinite relative clauses including partitives do not violate the so-called partitive constraint.
