When used in phrases with static (non-action) predicates, or in phrases denoting habitual and recurring situations or statements in negative or irrealis mood, the marker signals the so-called “change of state” meaning. Such types of predicates can only be marked with 了 2 , because they are not compatible with 了 1. We separately assessed the variance of 了 2 in the two different cases—first, when used with dynamic predicates (in 275 positions) and second, when applied to phrases, denoting non-dynamic situations (in 432 positions).

As we can observe from the statistical results, there are substantial dif- ferences in the motivating factors for the usage of 了 2 , compared to 了 1 . The factor “telicity” of the predicate that is significant for the post-verbal 了 1 appears to be not determinative for the phrase-final 了 2 marking, being statistically
