“仍旧”的词汇化与语法化及相关问题

The Lexicalization and Grammaticalization of "RengJiu( 仍旧)" and Related Issues

最迟在南北朝时期,韵律词"仍旧"已词汇化为一个述宾式动词。构式"仍旧VP"中"旧"与VP在语义上是复指关系,语义重心由"仍旧"转移到VP上,"仍旧VP"由并列关系重新分析为状中关系。最迟在晚唐五代时期,动词"仍旧"已语法化为副词。在类化机制作用下,"依旧"、"照旧"也沿着"仍旧"的演变路径发生演变,即先词汇化为动词,进而语法化为副词。

As late as the Northern and Southern Dynasties,due to its high-frequency use and other factors,prosodic word ＂ rengjiu（ 仍旧） ＂ is lexicalizated into a predicative-object verb. In the structure ＂ reng（ 仍） VP＂,＂ jiu（ 旧） ＂ and VP are the complex referring relationship,with the semantic focus of the sentence being transferred from ＂ reng（ 仍） ＂ into VP,and ＂ rengjiu（ 仍旧） VP＂ can be re-analyzed from the parallel relationship to adverbial-qualified word relationship. As late as the late Tang Dynasty or Five Dynasties period,the verb ＂ rengjiu（ 仍旧） ＂ is grammaticalized into an adverb. Thanks to generalized mechanism,＂yijiu（ 依旧） ＂ and ＂zhaojiu（ 照旧） ＂also evolve along the evolution path of ＂ rengjiu（ 仍旧） ＂,namely being lexicalizated into a verb in the first,then grammaticalizated into an adverb.
