论“放着……不……”的构式义

On the Constructional Meaning of“Fangzhe(放着) …Bu(不) …”

构式"放着……不……"是预设触发语,陈述了一个违反预期的异常行为,既是强调句式,又是焦点句型,是将背景信息前景化的手段。因此,可以将其构式义归纳为:在条件非常有利或可能性极大的情况下,放弃做更值得做的事情;或:明明有条件可以做更值得做的事情却选择放弃。

The construction“Fangzhe(放着)…Bu(不)…”,also as a presupposition-trigger,expresses a counter-expectation achieved by the contrast between the high possibility of a well-expected action and the result that doesn’t occurr.The speaker reinforces the violation of expectation by highlighting the superiority of the condition and foregrounding the background information.
