Yes, comparative concepts cannot be right or wrong, but traditional
terms can be defined in a better or less good way. Note that the
original question by Ian Joo used the traditional term "passive",
assuming that we know what it means (not necessarily assuming that
"passive" is a concept that is useful for typological
generalizations).<br>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Good definitions of traditional terms are (i) clear (i.e. based
on clear concepts) and (ii) largely coextensive with legacy
usage. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Traditional terms can rarely be defined clearly in such a way
that the definition covers ALL legacy cases. So while the Chinese
<i>bèi </i>
construction is similar to the Swahili Passive, I don’t see that
we can have a definition of <i>passive</i> that covers both.
Maybe even the English Passive is not included. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>By contrast, I don’t see why Papuan Malay <i>dapa-pukul</i>
shouldn’t be included. Isn’t <i>dapa-</i> a passive prefix? (And
similarly Riau Indonesian <i>kena-pukul</i>.)<br>

<p>As you've pointed out on numerous occasions, comparative
concepts can't be right or wrong, they can only be more or less
useful as tools for typological generalizations. Still, with
that in mind, I suspect that a comparative concept of "passive"
that subsumes, say, the rather garden-variety constructions in
(1) and (2), rather than excluding them on the grounds that the
verb lacks an affix, as you would have things, will turn out to
be more useful for typologists (not to mention conforming more
closely with common every-day usage).</p>

Yes, the definition that I use presupposes an understanding of
"verb-coded" and "adposition", but this is typical of
definitions: They work only if their component parts are defined
or understood clearly. <br>
<br>
So is <i>bèi</i> a verb-coding element in (1) and (4)? It could
be said to be "verb-phrase coding" (as David notes), but the
notion of "verb phrase" is not cross-linguistically applicable
in an obvious way. So I would restrict "passive" (as a
comparative concept) to forms where the verb has an affix
(because this is the only situation in which the two sister
constructions are clearly asymmetric). Now is <i>bèi</i> a
prefix in (1)? This would be possible only if <i>bèi</i> in (1)
and <i>bèi</i> in (4) are two different elements – and it seems
that we do not want to say this.<br>
<br>
Chao rightly asks: "In what sense is the English passive
construction verb-coded?" The English Passive includes an
Auxiliary, but there is no good cross-linguistic definition of
"auxiliary", so we don't want to say that auxiliaries can be
criterial for passives. Some English verbs have what looks like
a passive affix (e.g. <i>-en</i> in <i>tak-en</i>), but the
English Passive construction does not clearly fall under the
definition that I gave. (A good illustration of "passive" is
Siewierska's first example in her WALS chapter, from Swahili: <i>chakula
kilipik-<b>wa</b> (na Hamisi)</i> 'The food was cooked by
Hamisi').<br>
<br>
There is a tradition of appealing to "tests for subject
properties" (going back to Keenan 1976), but this seems
appropriate only at the language-particular level. Since these
tests are different in different languages, this approach does
not work well in a comparative context.<br>

I agree with Chao's characterization of Mandarin (1) as
being a passive under most or all reasonable definitions
thereof; however, I fail to see why (4) cannot also be
considered to be a passive. In (4), <i>bèi</i> is not
flagging <i>jĭngchá</i> 'police' but rather is marking the
entire phrase <i>jĭngchá tuō-zŏu-le</i>

<br>
Many Southeast Asian languages have paradigms which
correspond to that in (1) - (4) except that, in the
counterpart of (4), the agent phrase follows rather than
precedes the verb. Such constructions are commonly referred
to as "passives", or, more specifically, as "periphrastic"
or sometimes "adversative passives". Moreover, in such
languages, the counterpart of Mandarin <i>bèi</i> is
presumably also applying to the verb-plus-agent phrase as a
whole. So the only obvious difference between such
constructions and Mandarin (4) is that of word order. (I
say "*obvious* difference" because it may be the case that
syntactic tests will show that <i>jĭngchá</i> in (4) has
more subject properties than do the usual Southeast Asian
postverbal agent phrases, in which case the prototypicality
of (4) as a passive would decrease accordingly. But has
anybody shown this to be the case?)</p>

by “verb-coded”. For example, in what sense is the
English passive construction verb-coded? In a Mandarin
sentence like (1), the meaning is passive and
crucially it is coded with the passive morpheme <i>bèi</i>,
which historically could be used as a verb that means
“to suffer”. The single argument in (1) can also
correspond to the Patient argument of an active
sentence like (2) or (3). Moreover, it can be said
that the Agent argument gets suppressed in (1).
Therefore, it appears reasonable to analyze (1) as a
passive construction both Chinese-internally and
crosslinguistically. As for whether a </span> <i>bèi</i><span
style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New

analyzed as a passive construction that fits the
definition, such an analysis is possible if one
accepts the (controversial and debatable) assumption
that <i>bèi</i> in (4) assumes not only its primary
role of being a passive marker but also an additional
role of being a preposition. </span></p>

<div> According to my favourite definition of "passive
construction", these Mandarin examples are
(apparently) not passive constructions:<br>
<br>
<font size="-1">"A passive voice construction is a
verb-coded valency construction (i) whose sister
valency construction is transitive and not
verb-coded, and (ii) which has an S-argument
corresponding to the transitive P, and (iii) which
has a suppressed or oblique-flagged argument
corresponding to the transitive A".</font><br>
<br>
According to this definition, a passive construction
"marks both the agent and the verb" (unless the agent
is suppressed or otherwise absent). But Ian Joo's
question was probably about languages where the SAME
marker can occur on the verb and on the oblique agent.
This would be very unusual, because passive voice
markers are not expected to be similar to an oblique
agent flag.<br>
<br>
Now my question is: Are these Mandarin (and
Shanghainese) BEI/GEI-constructions passives? They
have traditionally been called passives, but since the
BEI element is obligatory, while the agent can be
omitted (<i>Zhangsan bei (Lisi) da le</i> 'Zhangsan
was hit (by Lisi)'), it cannot be a preposition or
case prefix. At least that would seem to follow from
the definition of "affix/adposition". So I think this
construction doesn't fall under a rigorous definition
of "passive construction". (Rather, it is a sui
generis construction.)<br>
<br>
Some authors might say that it is a "noncanonical
passive" (cf. Legate, Julie Anne. 2021. Noncanonical
passives: A typology of voices in an impoverished
Universal Grammar. <i>Annual Review of Linguistics</i>
7(1). doi:<a

target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">10.1146/annurev-linguistics-031920-114459</a>),
but there does not seem to be a clear limit to this
vague notion (is every topicalization construction a
noncanonical passive?). I do not know of a fully
explicit definition of "passive construction" that
clearly includes the Mandarin BEI constructions.<br>

<div>Dear typologists,<br>
<br>
I wonder if you are aware of any
language whose passive construction
marks both the agent and the verb.<br>
For example, in Mandarin, the agent
receives the passive marker <em>bei.</em><br>
<br>
(1) Zhangsan bei-Lisi da-le.<br>
Zhangsan PASS-Lisi hit-PRF<br>
`Zhangsan was hit by Lisi.'<br>
<br>
When the agent is omitted, the verb
receives <em>bei</em>.<br>
<br>
(2) Zhangsan bei-da-le.<br>
Zhangsan PASS-hit-PRF<br>
`Zhangsan was hit.'<br>
<br>
But, in some occasions, both the agent
and the verb receive <em>bei</em>:<br>
<br>
(3) Zhangsan bei-Lisi bei-da-le.<br>
Zhangsan PASS-Lisi PASS-hit-PRF<br>
`Zhangsan was hit by Lisi.'<br>
<br>
Are you aware of any other language
where a construction like (3) is
possible?<br>
The only one I am aware of at the
moment is Vietnamese.<br>
I would greatly appreciate any help.</div>
