摘要
详细的语法信息是英语学习词典不同于通用英语词典的一个重要设计特征。本文梳理六部最新版本的主要英语学习词典提供的关于谓词的语法信息,根据本文作者提出的一套经过改进的新语法系统,区分广义和狭义的谓词。广义的谓词包括语法助谓词、情态助谓词、连谓词和包括短语谓词在内的实义谓词,狭义的谓词仅指实义谓词。文章将实义谓词分为6个次类,即不及物谓词(包括存现谓词)、及物谓词、及物/不及物谓词、双宾谓词、系谓词、宾补谓词,这6个次类决定着核心语句的构造。文章最后给出这6类谓词的语法搭配。
Detailed grammatical information is an important design feature that distinguishes English learner's dictionaries from general English dictionaries. After comparing the grammatical information about verbs provided in the newest editions of six major English learner's dictionaries and on the basis of an improved grammatical system proposed by the present author,this article defines verbs in both a broad and narrow sense. In a broad sense,verbs comprise grammatical auxiliary verbs,modal auxiliary verbs,catenative verbs and lexical verbs that include phrasal verbs; in a narrow sense,verbs consist only of lexical ones. In this article lexical verbs are classified into six sub-categories,i.e. intransitive (including existential) verbs,transitive verbs,transitive/intransitive verbs,ditransitive verbs,linking verbs,and object complement verbs. It is these six sub-categories that determine the construction of kernel clauses. The grammatical collocations of these six verb types are given at the end of the article.
