Abstract

As an embranchment of Southland phylum,distribution of Indonesian modifiers is different from that of Chinese. This essay focuses on distribution of multiple adverbials and describes the representations of limitative adverbials and descriptive adverbials in Indonesian. While multiple adverbials are put on the left of predicate core in Chinese,multiple adverbials in Indonesian are distributed in both sides of predicate core and mainly appear at the end of sentence. Multiple adverbials in both Chinese and Indonesian follow similar order rules in the orbital structure that distribute around the predicate core.
