About Me
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Linguistics and Modern Languages at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. I received my BA in English, M.Phil. in Linguistics and M.Sc. in Computer Science from the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and Ph.D. in Linguistics from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
My areas of research are syntax, semantics, corpus linguistics and natural language processing (NLP). I have worked on grammatical phenomena across languages such as Cantonese, Mandarin, and English. Specific topics include right dislocation structures, wh-placeholder, negative wh-construction, sentence-final particles, telicity marking, egophoricity and statistical analysis of grammatical variations.
I was engaged in research corpus approach to grammar, automatic linguistic annotation, and syntactic parsing using machine learning. In the last few years, I also participated in interdisciplinary projects involving the application of linguistic analysis and AI to Alzheimer's disease and autism.
I am a Hongkonger. I speak Cantonese, English and Mandarin. I am a Christian.
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. (Romans 1: 20)
Research Interests
- Syntax, Semantics, Linguistic Typology, Corpus Linguistics, Natural Language Processing (NLP)
- Languages: Cantonese, Mandarin, English
Research Projects
Right Dislocation in Cantonese
My research into the Dislocation Focus Construction (DFC) in Cantonese challenges the traditional view that right-dislocated elements are mere "afterthoughts" or unplanned additions. Through the analysis of spontaneous spoken data from sources such as MyRadio and HK GreenRadio, I have demonstrated that these constructions are highly natural and systematic (Cheung, 2009).
Examples of Spontaneous DFC:
- 全部都不歡而散o既，幾個題目都講到。 (All ended in discord, several topics were mentioned.)
- 三成囉，得番。 (Thirty percent, only remains.)
Wh-placeholders and Ineffability
I investigate wh-placeholders—the use of interrogative words to substitute for linguistic expressions that a speaker cannot or will not utter (Cheung, 2015). This phenomenon is driven by various pragmatic motivations including:
VLC
Vulgar Language Circumlocution: Bypassing taboo or vulgar terms.
MOM
Momentary Retrieval: Addressing memory gaps for names/nouns.
ADQ
Avoidance of Quotation: Distancing speaker from specific quoted items.
