“十分”的副词化问题探究

The Exploration into Term of “Shifen” with Adverbialization

状中短语"十分"最初出现于战国时代,至迟在南宋,已词汇化为程度副词。"十分"的副词化动因是句法位置的变化、主观性增强、韵律规则的制约和使用频率的增加等因素的共同作用,其副词化机制是语义泛化、隐喻和重新分析的综合作用。元明以来,"十分"作为程度副词的用法逐渐固定了下来,并一直延续到现在。

The adverbial-verb phrase"shifen"can be traced back to the time of the Warring States Period. And till the end of the Southern Song dynasty,it had been lexicalized as an adverb of degree. The lexicalization motivation is the change of syntactic position,the enhancement of subjectivity,the restriction of rhythmic rules and the increase in frequency of use. Its lexicaliazation mechanism is a combination of semantic generalization,metaphor and reanalysis. Since the Yuan and Ming Dynasties,the usage of"shifen"as a degree adverb has been gradually fixed,and has continued to the present day.
