摘要
N1为人员类名词的英语a(n)N1of N2结构是一种非表量结构,该类非表量结构又可细分为属性、行为、属格和凸显等4小类。人员类a(n)N1 of N2结构具有语义焦点的恒定性和语义映射模式的单一性两个显著特点。语义焦点的恒定性表现在N1总是语义焦点,of N2总是作为N1的后置修饰语;因N2是N1的属性或N2与N1等同,即两者属于同一认知域,N2指向N1的语义映射属于部分指向整体的域内映射,所以都是转喻性的,为语义映射类型的单一性。
When N1 is a human being, the construction ＂a（n） N1 of N2＂ is non-partitive. This type of non-partitive construction can be sub-classified into four groups, i.e. property group, behavior group, genitive group and profiling group. The semantic focus of the personnel non-partitive＂ a（n） N1 of N2＂ construction is always N1, and ＂of N2＇＇ is used to modify N1. As N2 is the attribute of N1, they belong to the same cognitive domain, and mapping from N2 to Nl is always the metonymical one.
