语法化演进中的次语法化现象——以“话说”为例

On Secondary Grammaticalization of Introductory Particle——A case study of “Huashuo”

研究发现,古汉语发语词"话说"发展成为现代汉语口语发语词,其语法化过程呈现递进变化,而其中的次语法化过程集中体现在语用意义层面。发语词"话说"在现代汉语口语中使用活跃度的提升,是以沿用古汉语发语词语用意义为基础的,具有明显社会性。这里以校园语言中常用发语词"话说"为研究点,探索其语法化演进机制,旨在为其他校园语言的使用和理解、校园语言准确英译以及对实用二语写作兴趣激发研究提供有益借鉴。

Choosing ＂Huashuo＂, a word used as campus language and also a word from trendy words in modern Chinese, as studying object, through the research of its grammaticalization process based on investigation in CCL, it is proposed that the underlying gradual grammaticalization process is pragmaticalization process at the same time. With its meaning constructed on its usage in traditional Chinese, the high-frequency usage of ＂Huashuo＂ in modern spoken Chinese shows an obvious social-need orientation. The study provides prospect for better understanding of similar trendy word structure, accuracy in their translation into English and construction a better interest-trigger in ESL writing.
