摘要
同位结构是新闻语体的一个显著特征,本文基于《纽约时报》和《泰晤士报》的语料,讨论新闻话语NP1+NP2的限定性和非限定性同位结构的形式类型、语义关系、句法作用和话语功能。在考察的语料中,非限定性名词同位结构占86.35%,其中Np+NPd的使用频率最高。在同指、归属、同义和上下义语义关系中,同指和归属为同位结构的主要语义关系,占80.12%。名词同位结构体现解歧、释义和评价三种特定的话语功能。
Appositive construction is a striking linguistic characteristic in journalistic style. Based on the corpus from The Times and The New York Times, this paper investigates the features of formal types, semantic relations, grammatical functions and discourse functions of restrictive and non-restrictive NP1 + NP2 appositive constructions in journalistic discourse. The non-restrictive nominal appositive constructions cover 86.35% in the corpus under investigation, of which Np + NPd is the most frequent occurrence. In the semantic relations of co-reference, synonymy, hyponymy and attribution, the first two are the major semantic ones covering 80.12%. It is argued that certain discourse functions are realized as disambiguating, paraphrasing and evaluating.
