动词词组的篇章功能初探

A Brief Analysis to the Hallidayan Verb Group

韩礼德系统功能语法要求,结构中的项目只能按所在语言系统的要求行使某一特定范畴的功能,而不能超越所在范畴起作用。但韩礼德在《功能语法导论》中对语气部分和短语动词部分的处理表明,他对动词词组的认识显然与其阶与范畴的界定发生了矛盾。本文旨在说明其有关系统功能尤其是在对动词词组的界定及作用方面的认识还存在不尽人意之处,动词词组的构成应该涵盖限定成分和短语动词中的副词部分,论证了韩礼德的上述矛盾在于他忽略了篇章分析中的语用平面。

According to Hallidayan Functional Grammar, an item in a structure can only exert its specific function as required by its particular linguistic system. However, Halliday's treatment to mood structure and the adverbs in phrasal verbs shows that he was lost in a dilemma with his Scale and Category Theory. The writer argues that the verb group should include the finite element and the adverb element in verbal phrase and demonstrates that the above-mentioned Hallidayan defects are mainly due to his ignorance of the pragmatic level in textual analysis.
