摘要
以往关于汉语名词谓语句的研究把注意力集中在状态性名词谓语句上,在很大程度上忽视了表示动态意义的事件性名词谓语句。从认知语言学基于使用的视角考察,我们发现汉语中至少存在5类名词谓语构式可以编码事件。它们不是孤立现象,应被看作汉语语法体系的一部分。事件性名词谓语句反映了汉语在表征现实时注重空间性,这与英语表征现实时注重时间性的特质有明显差别。
Previous studies of nominal sentences in Chinese have concentrated on stative constructions,largely ignoring eventive nominal sentences,which designate dynamic situations.A study from the perspective of the Usage-based Model of Cognitive Linguistics reveals that in Chinese there are at least five types of nominal sentences encoding events.It is necessary to consider them as part of Chinese grammar rather than isolated phenomena.These dynamic constructions reflect the prominence of spatiality in representation of reality in Chinese,which is in marked contrast to the prominence of temporality in representation of reality in English.
