This work documents the use of the Vietnamese sentence-final particle co and aims to develop a unified formal account of the meaning and distribution of the particle.The particle co is one of a number of sentence-final particles in Vietnamese. The particle is used with various sentence types. (1) shows co in three types of constructions: declaratives, polar questions, and wh-questions.(1) Co in basic constructionsa. Em I muốn want nhin see ong cl truởng thon village-chief với with ca-vạt tie mỗi ngay everyday co. co 'I want to see the village chief wearing a tie everyday co.' (from Le (2015))b. Ngoai Besides tiếng cl Anh English ra, prt, anh ấy he con even noi speak duợc able tiếng cl Nhật Japanese co kia a? Q 'Besides English, he even speaks Japanese co?' (from Adachi (2013))c. Việc cl gi what co? co 'What co?' (from Từ diển Tiếng Việt (2003))Despite the common use of co, the particle has been poorly understood in the literature, as is the case of many Vietnamese sentence-final particles. In descriptive grammar books or dictionaries like Từ diển Tiếng Việt (2003), co is simply classified as a particle used in spoken language without elaboration on its uses and meaning. There are a few attempts to give the particle a more specific description. Nguyen (1997) mentions the use of kia, a variant of co 1 , in a particular type of context and takes the contextual details to be the contribution of the particle. The particle is described with the meaning of "expressing preference". In (2), the declarative with co implies that the Speaker prefers blue shirts over shirts of some other colors.(2) Preference expressing No He thich like so-mi shirt mau color xanh blue kia. kia 'He likes blue shirts.' (; He does not like shirts of some other colors.) (from Nguyen (1997))This description of co is narrow and unable to account for the distribution of co in other types of context and constructions. For example, the polar question with co in (1.b), repeated here in (3), does not seem to express anything related to the Speaker's preference. There is no implication that the Speaker prefers if the mentioned man is able to speak Japanese over some other language. A background context is provided to make clear how the polar question with co should be interpreted. As suggested by the translation, which is a rising declarative, the question intuitively expresses B's surprise at A's information.(3) Sentences with Co that do not express the Speaker's preference Context: A tells B that Sam speaks Japanese in addition to English. B then says:Ngoai Besides tiếng cl Anh English ra, prt, anh ấy he con even noi speak duợc able tiếng cl Nhật Japanese co co a? Q 'Besides English, he even speaks Japanese?'.
