On the Interaction of the Dutch Pragmatic Particles hoor and hè with the Imperative and Infinitivus Pro Imperativo
"The purpose of the present paper is to discuss two such phenomena and to explain the hitherto undescribed interaction between them. First we consider the utterance-final pragmatic particles hoor (literally ‘hear’) and hè (‘isn’t it’): cf. Kirsner & Deen (1990), Kirsner & van Heuven (1997).
