嵌偶单音词句法分布刍析--嵌偶单音词最常见于状语探因

The syntactic distribution of the monosyllabic words used in disyllabic templates

本文运用韵律句法学的相关理论,研究嵌偶单音词的句法分布。提出:汉语核心重音有"黏合"和"分离"两种力量,嵌偶单音词的分布反映了这两种韵律力量对句法的制约。在此基础上,本文进一步尝试解释嵌偶词在状语上出现数目最多的原因,提出嵌偶词主要出现在核心重音范域内、韵律分离力量外、能够构成句法词的(四个)最佳位置上。

A group of monosyllabic words that used in disyllabic templates is of unique significance in modern written Chinese. This paper aims to explore the rules that determine the syntactic distribution of this kind of monosyllabic words. It claims that there are two kinds of opposite force, loosening force and tightening force, under the effect of Nuclear Stress in VP structure in Chinese, which in turn plays an important role in regulating the distribution of such monosyllabic words. With this understanding, the paper analyzes the reason why most of this kind of monosyllabic words appear in the adverbial position in Chinese and draws a conclusion of the prosodic syntactic conditions to main positions of the monosyllabic words used in disyllabic templates.
