On the Subjectivity of Left-right Branching Locative Constructions and Its Typological Implications

导出

摘要 "在/向+方所"结构是汉语典型的方位结构,可灵活置于动词左右两个位置。共时分析表明,左置式是对言者的述谓,具有主观性,右置式是对谓语动词的述谓,具有客观性;历时上,左置式后于右置式出现,是方位结构主观化后导致的句法嬗变,这表明汉语方位结构主观化机制符合VO语言的演变倾向,是汉语作为强势VO语言的一个重要佐证。 As typical locative constructions in Mandarin Chinese, ＂Zai/Xiang ＋ noun phrase ＋（ locative particles）＂ can either precede or follow the verb in a sentence. Synchronic analysis shows that the pre-verb （left-branching） con- structions are more subjective in the sense that they are predicative of the speaker, while the post-verb （ right-branch- ing） constructions are more objective as they are predicative of the sentential verb. This finding is further justified by the diaehronic subjectification of the locative constructions. Historically, the subjective left-branching constructions derive from the objective right-branching constructions. This subjectification mechanism conforms to the typical per- fomlance of VO language, another proof that modem Chinese is a typical VO language.
