构式图示:语言形式化研究的新方案

Constructional Diagram:A New Program of Stadying Language Formalization

为了探讨语言形式化研究的新途径,文中在研究构式语法的基础上,总结了构式图示的嵌套框盒图、特征结构图和论元结构图三种类型.以致使移动构式阐释了构式图示的结构,评述了构式图示的利弊。构式图示使用一套固定的符号标记和数学公式实现语言形式化的研究,有助于语言学实现语言分析科学化的目标;构式图示可直观的将各象征单位和构式之间所具有的联系性和制约性呈现在图示中,有利于准确识别构式的意义和用法.

In order to find a new approach to studying language formalization,based on the study of the Construction Grammar, three types of Constructional Diagrams are put forward. Nesting Diagrams, Feature Diagrams and Argument Diagrams. According to the analysis of Caused-Motion Construction, the pros and cons of the Constructional Diagrams are discussed. Constructional Diagrams use a set of fixed codes and mathematical formula to study language formalization, which makes language analysis more scientific. In addition, the connection and the conditionality between each symbol unit and the construction can be visually displayed in the diagrams, which is helpful to accurately identify the meanings and functions of the construction.
