汉语隐喻运动事件的词汇化类型探究——整合语料库和实验的证据

Lexicalization Typology of Mandarin Metaphorical Motion Events: Converging Evidence from Corpus and Experimental Data

现代汉语在Talmy提出的动词框架语言和卫星框架语言中的归属问题,一直是学界争论的焦点。本文整合语料库和实验证据,对汉语隐喻运动事件的词汇化模式进行定量和定性分析。结果显示,现代汉语隐喻运动事件的词汇化模式以卫星框架语言为主,但兼有动词框架语言和均等框架语言的特征,整体趋势为卫星框架型>动词框架型>均等框架型。汉语隐喻运动事件的词汇化特征表明汉语是一种互补型语言。

There has been a hot debate on the typological status of Mandarin Chinese in Taylmyan framework of verb-framed language （V-language） and satellite-framed language （S-language）. The present study aims to investi- gate the lexicalization patterns of metaphorical motion e- vents in Mandarin Chinese by bringing together corpus data and experimental data. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of the converging evidence reveal that lexicaliza- tion patterns of Mandarin metaphorical motion events demonstrate more features of S-language, but it also shows the characteristics of V-language and equipollently- framed language （ E-language ）. The general tendency is S-language 〉 V-language 〉 E-language. Overall, the re- sults indicate that the lexicalization typology of Mandarin metaphorical motion events demonstrate a ＂complementa- ry＂ system.
