"abstract": "It has been widely acknowledged that the choice of Japanese demonstratives (the distal a-series, the medial so-series, and the proximal ko-series) in their anaphoric use is regulated by the rules concerned with the interlocutors' knowledge of the referent. In crosslinguistic discussions of anaphoric demonstratives, on the other hand, the effect of the interlocutors' knowledge of the referent has not received such recognition. This paper has the following goals. First, it critically reviews Susumu Kuno's seminal analysis of Japanese anaphoric demonstratives, and presents a modified version of it.

Each series contains several forms with different syntactic categories and meanings, e.g., pronouns kore/sore/are 'this/that one (insentient)', adnominal modifiers kono/sono/ano 'this/that', and manner adverbs koo/soo/aa 'in this/that way'. There has been a vast amount of literature on anaphoric demonstratives in Japanese. Among the numerous existing studies, the chapter titled \"the anaphoric use of kore, sore, and are\" in Kuno (1973) has been one of the most influential. Regarding the contrast between the a-series and so-series, he essentially claims that the a-series is used to refer to an entity that both S (the speaker) and H (the hearer) know personally (know well, are acquainted with), and the so-series is used to refer to an entity that either S or H does not know personally (does not know so.",

Unacceptability of sono in (6B) shows that, contra Kuno, any kind of contact involving direct perception, even if it is as casual/slight as just hearing sobbing noise, implies that the referent is in the realm of \"known (well)\". Henceforth, we will use the term \"recognize\", in place of Kuno's \"know well/personally\", to refer to the relation that may hold between an interlocutor and a referent and that affects the choice between the three series of Japanese anaphoric demonstratives. Along with close friends and some public figures, entities that one has had some kind of perceptual contact with belong to the domain of \"recognized\". Reference to an entity that neither S nor H recognizes: Taken literally, Kuno's generalizations (with an amendment on the relevant cognitive relation) predict that the so-series and not the other two series can be used to refer to an entity that neither S nor H recognizes. This is because that \"neither S nor H recognizes the referent\" logically entails that \"either S or H does not recognize the referent\" (where \"or\" is understood to be inclusive). This prediction needs to be empirically tested, however, because the data discussed by Kuno do not preclude the possibility that the so-series can be used only when one of the interlocutors knows well the referent and the other does not (cf. the discussion of English this in \u00a74).",

At the time (8B) is uttered, (interlocutor B knows that) the cake shop manager is recognized by both A and B, and thus, if Kuno's analysis is taken at face value, the use of the so-series must be blocked. Such data suggest that the choice between the three series of anaphoric demonstratives hinges not on whether (S knows that) the referent is recognized by S and H, but rather on whether it is presupposed (i.e., is considered a mutual knowledge of the interlocutors) in the discourse situation that the referent is recognized by both S and H.",

Discourse referents are similar to logical variables, and serve as markers for entities asserted to exist within the discourse. A DRS K can be represented set-theoretically as an ordered pair \u27e8U K , C K \u27e9, where U K is the set of discourse referents (the universe of the DRS) and C K is the set of conditions that are predicated of the discourse referents.

The second is obviously needed in order to characterize the kind of cognitive relation we have claimed to be necessary for the use of some anaphoric demonstratives; the first is required to specify the desired notion of establishment of such acquaintance relations. We will now show how these elements are realized in DRT, in some detail since they will be key in our analysis.

The attitudinal predicate specifies that an attitude ascription is being made. The first argument is the attitude holder. The second argument, the ADS, specifies the content of the attitudes being ascribed. It consists of a set of pairs \u27e8M ode, K\u27e9, where M ode is an attitude specification which can be drawn from (at least) BEL(ief), DES(ire), and IN T (end), and K is a DRS. It is also possible here to have conditions of the form \u27e8[Anch, x], K\u27e9, which specify that x as used in K is believed by the attitude holder to be anchored to some external object. Only BEL will play a role in our analysis. Finally, EA is a function which maps some subset of the discourse referents used in the conditions in the ADS to objects external to the discourse representation, i.e., to objects whose existence is independently known, or which are taken to be so. 6 Our final task before proceeding to the analysis proper is to give background on treatments of presupposition within DRT. There is a large literature on this topic within DRT and dynamic semantics in general, with authors proposing varied treatments, but here we will present a treatment within more or less standard DRT following van der Sandt (1992), though differing from that work in some issues of representational detail. The basic idea of DRT views of presupposition is that presuppositions 6 The model theory of these conditions is complex and its full explanation is beyond the immediate requirements of this paper.

It is worth mentioning finally the case of proper names, because of their close relation to demonstratives (e.g. Kaplan, 1989) , though in the present paper we will not be able to address the issue of direct reference for reasons of space. In DRT, proper names are taken to introduce discourse referents which are associated with the presupposition that the name itself holds of that referent. They are thus a species of presuppositional indefinite. The discourse referent itself must be represented at the highest level of the DRS, and so must be mapped to some object in the model; it is not allowed to scope under operators such as negation. The presence of the referent at the top level may be achieved by accommodating the presupposition if required (cf. Beaver and Zeevat, 2007) .",

The adnominal case (of this/that) is analyzed by adding such a presupposition, while the Japanese pronominal cases can be analyzed by removing the presupposition that N (x) from each clause of (23). The pronominal uses also have implications for the animacy/sentience of their referents; for instance, are/sore/kore in general cannot denote a sentient entity, and neither can pronominal this/that (except when they occur as the subject of be, as in: That is his assistant.), which we model by adding a presupposition that the referent is insentient. 9 (24) a.

The question of whether these factors also play into demonstrative use elsewhere is worthy of further investigation. Second, we have been careful to limit our analysis to the case of anaphoric demonstratives in dialogue. The constraints we have noted seem to behave in a subtly different manner in other discourse genres such as monologue or reportage; also, boundvariable uses of demonstratives also seem exempt from them, as in the case of donkey anaphora. The way(s) in which demonstratives are used across the full range of genres, and how the constraints on their use interact with constraints on other types of nominal expressions, is also a useful area for later research. Finally, it would be interesting to attempt the integration of the results of this paper with computational models of discourse generation and interpretation.",
