从主观强调看“仅限于”的词汇化过程——兼论词缀“于”的零形化

On the Lexicalization Process of“Jinxianyu”from the Subjective Emphasis——Also on the Zeroing of the Affix“yu”

"仅限于"在发展演化中由"仅"限定"限于"而形成。"仅"是副词性状语,"限于"是动词,两者为限定关系,起到限定强调的功能。"限于"既有动词属性,又趋向介词化。"仅限于"在演化过程中,具有强调限定某一范围的作用,从表达功用看,具有强化焦点、主观强调、关联衔接等功能。"于"从"限于"中的词缀演化为"仅限于"中的附缀,受到韵律制约脱落而成为零形式,形成"仅限"与"仅限于"并存的现象。

"Jinxianyu"has been formed in the evolution of"Jin"determining"xianyu"."Jin"is an adverbial modifier,and"xinayu"is a verb.There is a determinative relationship between the two words,which serve to limit the emphasis."xianyu"has the part of speech both in verbs and prepositions.In the evolution process"jinxinayu"has the function of emphasizing the limitation of a certain range.From the perspective of expression function,it has the functions of strengthening focus,subjective emphasis,and association."Yu"evolved from the affix in"xianyu"to the clitic in"jinxianyu",due to the constraints of rhythm factors,and it finally drops and becomes zero form,forming a phenomenon of"jinxian"and"jinxianyu".
