汉语的句法演变与词汇化

Syntactic change and lexicalization in Chinese

本文对汉语历史上由于句法演变所引起的词汇化的几种情况做了分析。实词功能的变化、虚词功能的变化、词序的改变等都有可能促使相应句法结构中的某些形式发生词汇化。不过句法演变并不是发生词汇化的必要条件。由句法演变所引起的词汇化和与句法演变无关的词汇化是可以分辨的,二者具有一系列不同之处。

This paper proposes that some diachronic lexicalizations be induced by syntactic changes of,e. g.,content words,functional words and word order changes. However,syntactic changes are not necessary for the occurrence of lexicalization. The differences between syntactically relevant lexicalization and syntactically irrelevant lexicalization are also discussed.
