摘要
汉语词语运用的规律是在表义明确的前提下注意音节的平衡与和谐。四字结构(即两个音步)符合汉语韵律和谐的要求。这就是汉语四字结构作为句子的基本单位的原因,也是"三字连言"现象产生的原因,而四字结构内部根据音节韵律的重新切分又是双音词产生的途径之一。
It is a principle of using Chinese words to consider the syllabic equity and harmony on condition that clarity in expression has been ensured. The diametric quadrasyllabic structures in Chinese meet the requirement of prosodic harmony. This accounts for the facts that in Archaic Chinese such structures served as basic sentence patterns and that in some cases three synonymous words were bound altogether to form a diametric structure. Within the quadrasyllabic structure, re-syncopation under prosodic motivation is one of the mechanisms to form disyllabic words.
