Abstract
Abstract The notion of delocutivity, introduced by Benveniste for single verbs, is of more general application, and encompasses an interesting subclass of hypostases. We are concerned with cases where a form is not simply mentioned, but where its use resembles a mention in that it harks back to a previous utterance or utterancetype. Such uses are assessed with respect to their divergence from a merely quotative sense, and the degree to which they formally announce themselves as hypostasis or on the contrary blend into normal syntax as though there were nothing metalinguistic going on.
