中国学习者英语语料库中动名搭配错误研究

An Analysis of V-N Collocation Errors in CLEC

本文分12个描述子类和11个诊断子类对CLEC语料库中1481个动名搭配错误做了描写及诊断分析。描述数据表明,动名搭配中包括虚化动词和动词固定词组在内的动词用法是学习难点;学习者对动名搭配中名词用法的掌握不理想;作为动名搭配有机组成部分的非实词成分不可忽视。诊断数据显示,母语迁移、滥用虚化动词、忽略搭配(词)的结构或语义(韵)限制以及误用目标语规则等是造成动名搭配错误的重要原因。

This study describes and diagnoses the 1481 V-N collocation errors in CLEC. These errors are categorized into 12 and 11 subtypes according to their descriptive and diagnostic features respectively. Descriptive data show： 1 ） Chinese English learners have considerable difficulties with delexical verbs and verbs in set phrases while using V-N collocations ; 2） their use of nouns in V-N collocations is unsatisfactory; 3） the non-lexical element is an indispensable part of V-N collocations and thus should not be neglected in learning. Diagnostic analysis reveals that V-N collocation errors can be attributed to L1 negative transfer, misuse of delexical verbs, t ignorance of the structural, semantic or semantic-prosodic constraints of collocates, as well as misuse of target language rules.
