Book excerpt: Based on empirical data from five classical texts, this study investigates flexibility of parts of speech in Classical Chinese.

The components needed to account for it include constructions, semantics, metonymies, metaphors, pragmatic implicatures – and world knowledge as reflected within a given culture.
