焦点标记“来”

‘Lái’(来) as a focus marker

本文所要探讨的“来”是“我来介绍一下”和“我们要根据具体情况来判断”中的“来”。笔者从信息结构的角度，应用焦点理论对上述两句中的“来”作出了统一的解释，证明“来”是句子的焦点标记。并在此基础上通过焦点标记“是”和“来”的对比，进一步揭示了“是”和“来”的语用意义。

This paper offers an analysis of the ‘lái’ (来, come) in ‘Wǒ lái jièshào yíxià’ and that in ‘Wǒmen yào ɡēnjù jùtǐ qínɡkuànɡ lái pànduàn’. The paper explains ‘lái’ with the structure of information, using the theory of focus to prove that they have the same function and are the focus marker of the sentence. Furthermore, the paper has made a comparison between the typical focus marker ‘shì’(是, is) and ‘lái’ and an analysis of their usages.
