上古汉语表“经验”的一种特殊形式

A Special Form of Expressing "Experience" in Ancient Chinese

“闻+之,O”在上古汉语主要典籍中可以找到诸多实例,是一种使用频率很高的句法结构形式,它与同时期的“尝(副词)+VP”一样,用于表示“经验”意义。从语法性质上看,它居于句法层面,因此,这种表达形式属于句法手段。由这种手段表示的“经验”意义属于句法或语义范畴。“闻+之,O”形式还起到了语篇连接作用。

This paper studies a syntactic form ＂I heard that＂, which appeared frequently in the main ancient books and records, and which is the same with the structure ＂have ever been ＋ VP＂, expressing ＂experience＂. It is on the phase of syntax and belongs to syntactic method. The meaning of ＂experience＂ expressing by this method belongs to syntax or semantic category and is improper to call ＂experience aspect＂. The paper also analyzes the reason why this structure became declining after middle ancient Chinese history.
