that引导的定语从句的语用分析

A Pragmatic Analysis on the Attributive Clauses Introduced by "That"

国内对定语从句的研究成果颇丰,但从语用学角度研究的并不多,本文笔者运用关联理论及语用化概念,以that引导的限制性定语从句为例,研究得出,that定从存在从限定修饰的定语功能到解释补充说明的状语功能的转变,从而产生了语用化的现象。

There are plenty of studies on attributive clauses in domestic academia, among which few are from pragmatic per-spective. In light of the relevance theory and pragmaticalization, this paper explores the attributive clauses introduced by ＂that＂and draws a conclusion that the function of these attributive clauses transforms from modification to specification.
