520    "Investigates verb serialization, a highly productive 
       grammatical strategy in this dynamic Southeast Asian 
       language in which multiple verbs are simply concatenated 
       within a single clause to depict a single event. The 
       investigation identifies four major types of serial verb 
       construction (SVC) in White Hmong and finds that the key 
       function of all these types is to depict a single event in
       an elaborate and vivid way, a much-favoured method of 
       description in this language. These findings concerning 
       the nature and function of SVCs in White Hmong contribute 
       to broader discussions on the nature of events as both 
       cognitive and cultural constructs"--|cProvided by
