discourse:sp: sentence particle
Sentence particles, also commonly known as “sentence-final particles” in Chinese linguistics, occur at the end of clauses and sentences in Classical Chinese and have a wide range of functions including modifying the modality of a sentence or its proposition, and expressing discourse and pragmatic information. They are linked to the main predicate as discourse:sp dependents (we place them under an extension of discourse under a loose interpretation of “discourse”).
Common sentence-final particles in Classical Chinese include: 也, 哉, 已, 兮, 乎, 歟, 矣, 焉.
