PART ONE: INTRODUCTION Rationale Passive sentences are typical structures in Indo-European languages A lot of research about the passive phenomenon has been done, providing a wide variety of features of passive structures cross-linguistically (e.g Keenan, 1976; Freidin, 1975; Permutter, 1978; Zaenen, 1983; Langacker, 1990; Tomlin, 1995.) Each school of linguistics has displayed its own ways of analyzing the passive structures, thus posing trouble for learners and for novice researchers in settling a standpoint in grasping and understanding the fundamental semantic and syntactic structure of this phenomenon in languages The following example illustrates this point Sentences (a) and (b) below describe a state in which a male person carries a box from one place to another: (a) He moved the box into the room (b) The box was moved into the room (by him.) Both sentences, (a) and (b), refer to one event with the same actor Syntactically, sentence (a) differs from sentence (b) in that the subject/doer in (b) is optional or left out entirely, or optionally expressed obliquely via a by-phrase, and that the object in (a) serves as the subject/patient in (b.) Traditional grammar treats passive voice as the change of the morphology in verbs, with the inversion of the subject and object of the sentences Then, (b) can be seen as a new version of (a) with a change in the verb „move‟ and an exchange of location in the subject and object of the original sentence (a) It has been argued in transformational grammar that passive sentences derive from a D-structure form of so-called active sentences It is the NP-MOVEMENT (c.f Radford, 1988:420) that brings to life passive sentences Generative grammar TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com offers an analysis of the change from active to passive structures, attributing the shift through a „multilevel syntagmatic structure‟ in which the „deep structure (or initial stratum) is basically active in organization‟ (Langacker, 1990.) Passive structures are also argued to belong to a class of expression known as idioms chunks (c.f Radford, 1988:422.) And NPs in passive sentences not have the same syntactic freedom of distribution as other NPs Another argument is formulated in relation to thematic relations It is claimed that active Objects (i.e Objects of active sentences) play the same thematic role as the corresponding passive Subjects Another view on passive voice comes from Functionalism Functional grammar divides passive structure into three subcategories, depending on the functions that the speakers would like to convey It is called the pragmatic function of the sentence For example, when the Agent of the action is unknown to the writers or speakers, passive structures are preferred Or when the focus of the sentence is the action and the effects of the action, not the doer of the action, passive constructions are applied (c.f Halliday, 1994; Lock, 1996; Downing and Locke, 1992; Givon, 1995.) Semantically, a functional grammarian analyzes constituents in passive grammar based on the functions of the participants in the sentence, namely actor / agent, goal, beneficiary, recipient, etc Previously mentioned views of linguistics on passive voice have left drawbacks to language users and language teachers For instance, traditional grammar states that passive voice can be formed if the verb is a transitive one, i.e the verb having a direct object However, not all transitive verbs can be conjured up in passive structures Or as stated by generative grammar, passive structures derive from their active counterparts In reality, no speaker describes an event by forming an active sentence in his/her mind then „transforms‟ it into passives This will be further discussed later in the study TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com It is not until recently that cognitive semantics (or more generally cognitive linguistics) has postulated a different look at language structures The focus in the study of language shifts from external to internal, mentalist aspects of the human language Researchers in cognitive science argue that the linguistic structure is a direct reflex of cognition in the sense that a particular linguistic expression is associated with particular ways of conceptualizing a given situation (Lee, 2001: 1) They believe that there exists an interrelationship between thought and meaning It is from this point of view that passive sentences are seen from a different angle The root of the differences mentioned above originates from the theory of meaning Generative grammar claims that the structure of linguistic expressions is determined by a formal rule system that is largely independent of meaning Or rather, syntax is independent from meaning while cognitive linguistics claims that language is not an autonomous cognitive faculty (c.f Croft, 2004.) It is therefore absolutely necessary for researchers as well as language learners to take a standpoint in analyzing languages In particular, a thorough understanding and fully developed arguments for the explanation of the structure are crucial A note should be taken here regarding the title of the dissertation Since the word „perspective‟ in cognitive semantics embraces more than one meaning and has subnotions hanging with it, this word used in the title may result in misunderstanding However, the word „perspective‟ in the title is used in purpose The meaning of the word „perspective‟ the author wishes to express is that of „view point,‟ „standpoint,‟ „angle,‟ or the like With the title as it is, the author wishes to analyze the passive structures from the cognitive semantics point of view More than that, the author wishes to bring a metaphor of the word „perspective‟ to the title, hoping to create a profound and thoughtful meaning of the title of the dissertation TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Aims of the study The study aims to provide a critical analysis of three major theoretical approaches of explaining language phenomena More particularly, different approaches of linguistics, e.g traditional grammar, transformational-generative grammar, on explaining passive voice will be critically explored, thus indicating their strengths and weaknesses, which will help determine more appropriate ways of looking at this language phenomenon The study aims at presenting another way of analyzing language structures, especially passive structures, based on cognitive linguistics, particularly cognitive semantics, i.e based on four major notions: Perspectives, Figure – Ground relationship, Encyclopedic knowledge, and Prototype An exploration of cognitive linguistics in general and cognitive semantics in particular will be displayed, thus providing a more interesting and convincing way of looking at the passive voice Major tenets of cognitive linguistics and features of cognitive semantics will be thoroughly presented, making it possible to come to a conclusion for the betterment of the new school of linguistics The study will also discuss the possibility of the existence of passive structures in Vietnamese A prototype view will be applied in analyzing the structures, hopefully contributing another view to the debate over the existence of the so-called passive structures in Vietnamese Through the analysis of passive structures, the researcher attempts to present another view of linguistic exploration, interpreting the use of language from the understanding of our cognition through a number of notions in cognitive linguistics, and in cognitive semantics in particular, thus illustrating evidence for the possibility of integrating notions in cognitive semantics in the task of language analysis TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Scope of the study As stated previously, one of the aims of this research is to present our understandings of cognitive linguistics and cognitive semantics in particular; therefore, the focus is on displaying major notions of this school of linguistics In particular, the study confines itself to the notions of perspectives, figure and ground, encyclopedic knowledge, and prototype since these four are fundamental in cognitive linguistics Regarding passive voice and structures to be analyzed, the study restricts itself to structures with passive form in the main verb, i.e the passive form of the utterance is in the head verb, leaving behind structures consisting of passive forms in other parts of the sentence, e.g in the to infinitive, such as need to be repaired Also, most sentences used as illustrations come from everyday language, thus setting aside extensive complicated sentences found in academic texts or elsewhere It should be noted here that it is not possible to apply one notion of cognitive linguistics, such as Figure and Ground, in analyzing all kinds of passive structures This means that for each sentence, we have different ways of approaching and applying proper notions for explaining This is due to the fact that language phenomena are various, and as a result, the way to deal with them varies accordingly Consequently, it is impossible to apply one idea to the explanation of all features of language However, the study is not going to categorize or classify which kinds of sentences are applicable for which types of notions since it is not the goal of the study The last chapter in Part II is an attempt of assembling as many notions as possible in analyzing the phenomenon of passive structures, thus providing a broader view on this feature of language - passive structures In short, the study will focus on the facets that are applicable in analyzing passive structures, not an overall presentation of the theory of cognitive semantics TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Research questions Passive voice in English, or in Indo-European languages in general, has been widely discussed from different points of view Different papers present different discussions on this language structure This study attempts to seek answers to the issues that have not been adequately discussed by many researchers from different schools of linguistics The questions that the study will investigate will be as follows: a How is the passive voice seen from the point of view of cognitive semantics? Different major notions of cognitive semantics are applied to discuss the phenomenon, i.e passive voice, resulting in subquestions as follows: Subquestion 1: Are passive sentences surface structures of their so-called active counterparts? How are passive and active sentences seen from the notion of „perspective‟ in cognitive semantics? Subquestion 2: How can the notion of Figure and Ground be applied to explain passive structures? Subquestion 3: How can the theory of Frame Semantics and Encyclopedic Semantics be used to examine the acceptability of passive sentences? Subquestion 4: How can the theory of prototype be used to formulate a passive prototype in Vietnamese? b Is it possible to integrate the four notions in analyzing passive voice, providing a thorough and profound interpretation of the phenomenon? TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Methodology 5.1 This work is not an empirical study which requires experimental and/or experiential data, which is analyzed using quantitative or qualitative methods In contrast, the study applies the descriptive and analytical methods, presenting the theoretical foundation which is then illustrated by examples with explanations and discussions, thus hopefully reaching conclusions by deductive reasoning A theoretical framework, i.e based on the major notions of cognitive semantics, is established; then examples and illustrations are explored based on this framework In other words, major notions of the cognitive semantics theory are used as principles from which examples are analyzed, thus helping the researcher come to conclusions The examples and illustrations given in the discussion are utterances from different specific situations in daily life Sentences used as examples are cited from either reliable sources or real life situations All the examples from real life situations, though not recorded and not put in the appendices, were sent to English speaking people to test whether these sentences have a high acceptability in the English language More significantly, two native English speakers have been asked to the proof reading, providing high reliability and validity of the examples used in the work 5.2 The research design is presented as follows First, in order to establish a strong argument for the work to be done, all major points of views and the methods of analyzing passive structures are critically illustrated Then a framework is set up from the light of cognitive semantics, i.e a framework set up from four major notions of cognitive semantics Each of these four notions is presented with details and illustrations, with which active and passive structures are analyzed and explained After that, an integration of these four notions is founded, from which passive structures are analyzed from the overall examination of cognitive semantics TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com This dissertation is divided into three parts The first one is, as a rule of thumb, the Introduction, which provides the rationale, aims, scope and research questions of the study This rationale provides arguments for the necessity of carrying out the research; the aims presents the goals of the study and the scope restricts the study into a certain aspects and leaves behind others for other future research The second part of the dissertation, the Development, presents a thorough review of the literature about passive voice, in English and Vietnamese More importantly, a theoretical framework based on major notions of cognitive semantics is established, providing foundation for the discussion and analysis of the passive voice from the light of the cognitive semantics In part II, there are five chapters Chapter reviews major arguments and analysis of passive voice from different schools of linguistics other than cognitive linguistics Chapter presents the basic ideas about cognitive linguistics and especially cognitive semantics Chapter 3, 4, and are for applying individual notion of cognitive semantics to analyzing and discussing passive and active structures Regarding the necessity and vitality of the analysis of passive voice, Chapter presents different views of different schools of linguistics, and the drawback of these methods in analyzing language Chapter displays how language structures are seen from the perspective of cognitive semantics, providing a foundation for a particular phenomenon, i.e passive structures, to be analyzed Chapters 3, 4, and discuss the passive phenomenon based on the notions of cognitive semantics presented in the previous chapters The last part of the work, the Conclusion, summarizes what has been done, what has not been covered, accompanied by suggestions for future study This part also indicates possible implications for the job of language teaching and learning, hopefully providing an alternative method of analyzing other aspects of languages TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Contribution of the study The study hopes to contribute to the development of cognitive linguistics, and cognitive semantics in particular, thus providing evidence for the claim that cognitive linguistics is a convincing and appropriate way to explain language The study confirms the fact that it is feasible to apply notions in cognitive semantics to analyzing and explaining problems in syntax, thus fostering the idea that syntax and semantics are two sides of a coin, and should not be considered divorced from one another The study provides a profound and convincing explanation, with illustrations and examples in English and Vietnamese, to the controversy of whether passive voice derives from active voice, which hopefully contributes to the aim of settling the arguments referring to the phenomenon of passive voice TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com PART TWO: DEVELOPMENT In this Part, a review of theoretical foundation is done in the first half, serving as a background for the study to be carried out in the rest of the part This part consists of five chapters The first chapter deals with the arguments about passive voice from three major linguistic theories, i.e traditional grammar, transformationalgenerative grammar, and functional grammar The first half of Chapter displays the author‟s understanding of cognitive linguistics in general and cognitive semantics in particular This chapter confines itself to the major points which will be applied to the analysis of passive voice in the following chapters The chapter starts with a definition of technical terms which will be applied in the discussion; and it is followed by a general view on cognitive linguistics Then the chapter continues with an illustration of my understanding of cognitive semantics, which serves as foundation for the study The rest of Chapter presents an intensive review of major tenets of cognitive semantics which have been applied in analyzing linguistics expressions The chapter displays four major notions of cognitive semantics, providing a theoretical framework in the discussion of the phenomenon of passive voice in the following chapters The notions include Perspectives, Figure and Ground relation, Frame Semantics and Encyclopedic Semantics, and Prototype Chapters 3, 4, and are the core of the study Chapter applies the four major notions of cognitive semantics, which have been displayed so far, into analyzing passive structures The discussion of passive structures are based on the major tenets of cognitive semantics Chapter deals with the passive structures in Vietnamese Two major arguments about whether or not there exist passive structures in Vietnamese are presented Then the chapter continues with the implementation of prototype theory in 10 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com (LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01 1.3 More importantly, the study has presented a method of combining major notions in cognitive semantics It is transparent that most linguistic phenomena are „multiply motivated‟, that is, a large number of factors are involved in the process of producing language And we have seen in this study where evidence has been illustrated, that a certain linguistic expression is affected by a number of principles, e.g perception, experience, encyclopedic knowledge The study has presented an integrating method in the analysis of passive structures The interpretation of passive voice would be more profound and thorough when we apply this way of examining, i.e integrating major notions of cognitive semantics for the analysis Also, the study has confirmed the fact that language is part of our cognition; the process of using language or producing language is definitely a cognitive process which involves human‟s perception and conceptualization This has been illustrated with evidence from the discussion of human experience, encyclopedic knowledge, or perception, thus assuring convincing and feasible way of analysis of language, i.e cognitive semantics in particular and cognitive linguistics in general The dissertation has illustrated that cognitive semantics, and cognitive linguistics, has provided us with convincing theoretical framework from which we can base for the task of language analysis Implications 2.1 For language learning and teaching Though there have been no empirical studies of the percentage of language teachers who apply traditional grammar and generative grammar in language teaching, these schools of linguistics still seem to be dominant in classrooms in our country, Vietnam However, evidence has been found to indicate that these schools of linguistics not meet the demand of providing a profound and thorough (LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01 166 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com (LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01 analysis and explanation for many language phenomena; and the passive voice, as indicated in this study, is an example Functional grammar is said to have a „strong alliance‟ with cognitive linguistics, but it does not necessarily mean that they have similar approaches and theory Functional grammar focuses on the language use and seems to ignore the underlying processes of how language relates to cognition, i.e the structures and processes involved in thinking and using language, and the relation between linguistic form and conceptual meaning, which is, on the other hand, considered as the major principle of cognitive linguistics Let us look at what Evans et al roughly summarizes as the jobs of major schools of linguistics: While formalists are particularly concerned with developing descriptively adequate accounts of linguistic phenomena and with modeling the representation of knowledge of language in the mind, functionalists have been primarily concerned with exploring the social and communicative functions of situated language use Cognitive linguistics, while functionalist in spirit, is concerned both with achieving descriptive adequacy and with modeling language as a cognitive phenomenon (2006.) Surely, cognitive linguistics has steadily become a more proper gateway for the task of understanding language and of examining the relation of language structure and things outside language It is a model that has expanded its descriptive scope to non-Indo-European languages has accomplished its mission of understanding and analyzing language phenomena (c.f Inglis, 2004.) More importantly, cognitive linguistics has gradually but firmly established itself as a complete and innovative discipline, but certainly not one which for these reasons has ceased to involve nor to expand (Kristiansen G., et al., 2006:2.) Therefore, if equipped with the disciplines of how language relates to cognition, and appropriate methods in analyzing language phenomena, teachers and learners are able to design their own methodology in the cause of teaching and learning respectively (LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01 167 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com (LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01(LUAN.van.THAC.si).dang.bi.dong.trong.tieng.anh.duoi.goc.do.ngu.nghia.hoc.tri.nhan.(co.lien.he.tieng.viet).doctoral.dissertation.linguistics.62.22.15.01 A number of studies of applying insights from cognitive linguistics pedagogical grammar have been carried out (e.g Evans and Tyler, 2005;

The scope of study has limited this research to certain areas, leaving behind not a few issues that need to be addressed One thing the researcher left unresolved in this study is a thorough investigation of other structures which relate to passive constructions, e.g in the phrase need to be done Also, the researcher left the phrase traditionally considered past participle phrase, e.g Given a chance to study in the US, + a clause, which is worth being examined in another study Also, a diversity of examples, i.e from different sources, should be taken into consideration in future research Langacker states that in the structures of a passive construction, there are three types of perfect participle, i.e PERF1 as in Jane is gone - designating a state characterized as the final state in a process; PERF2 as in The cathedral is totally destroyed - evoking a conception of a change of state or location; and PERF3 as in The town was destroyed (house by house) - designating the state within a process Regarding variants of perfect participle, this study owes itself a huge part of mentioning this aspect when referring to the semantics of the passive constructions Further research, especially in Vietnamese passive, should touch upon this issue to make sure full coverage of the passive is investigated Another issue that future research needs to examine is the meaning of to be and by from the principles of cognitive semantics (c.f Langaker, 1990: 127 ff.)
