程度副词修饰名词结构探析

Further Approach to the Combined Types of "Adverb+ Noun"

程度副词修饰名词原本不是一个被语法学界完全认可的语法组合,然而在当代口语及书面语中,“程度副词+名词”组合却有越来越多的人使用。可见,“程度副词+名词”虽是一类很特殊的结构,但已具有相当程度的可接受性。与一般意义上的名词不同,进入这一结构中的名词需具有由具体指称向情状描述转化的潜在语义特征,这一类名词与程度副词的组合弥补了形容词语义表达上的问题,并由此引发了部分名词向名形兼类词的转变。

Degree words modifying nouns are originally a grammatical combination which is completely admitted by the grammnatical world. However, in the present oral and written languages, the combinations of ＂degree word ＋ noun＂ are used by more and more people. So ＂degree word ＋ noun＂ is a special structure, but it is acceptable to some extent. Nouns in this structure need to have potential semantic features from concrete references to stating descriptions. The combinations of nouns and degree words make up the vacant problem of adjectives semantic expressions and cause some nouns to transform into both nouns and adjectives.
