论把“非谓形容词”归入“区别词”

到目前为止,汉语语法界对形容词的分类依旧存在着较大的分歧,有单独成类的,有分为“谓词性形容词”和“非谓形容词”的,也有把“非谓形容词”归入区别词的。本文试图通过对“谓词性形容词”和“非谓形容词”两者功能的比较,说明把“非谓形容词”归入区别词的合理性。

Effects of Collocational Congruency,Frequency and L2 Proficiency on the Processing of English Adjective-Noun Collocations

The present study investigates the effects of congruency and frequency on adjective-noun collocational processing for Chinese learners of English at two proficiency levels based on the data obtained in an online acceptability judgment task.The subject pool of this research included 60 English majors studying at a university in China;30 were selected as a higher-proficiency group and 30 as a lower-proficiency group according to their Vocabulary Levels Test(Schmitt et al.,2001)scores and their self-reported proficiency in English.The experimental materials were programmed to E-prime 2.0 and included six types of collocations:(1)15 high-frequency congruent collocations,(2)15 low-frequency congruent collocations,(3)15 high-frequency incongruent collocations,(4)15 low-frequency incongruent collocations,(5)15 Chinese-only items,and(6)75 unrelated items for baseline data.The collected response times(RTs)and accuracy rates data were statistically analyzed by the use of an ANOVA test and pairwise comparisons through SPSS 16.0 software.The results revealed that:(1)the adjective-noun collocational processing of Chinese English learners is influenced by collocational frequency,congruency and L2 proficiency;(2)the processing time is affected by the interaction of congruency and frequency;and(3)the interactive effect of L2 proficiency in conjunction with congruency and frequency also influences the processing quality.

汉语形容词论元结构的再分析

对论元结构的研究一直是句法理论研究的核心问题之一。本文基于汉语语料,从句法、词汇语义和形态的角度探讨谓词性形容词的论元结构,重点考察二元形容词,提出并论证以下观点:(1)汉语一元形容词可通过句法上的施用语投射引介出一个非核心论元而构建成二元形容词,这些形容词分为两类:一类为心理形容词,施用语“对”引介出一个非核心论元,这类形容词有相应的二元心理动词;另一类为评价形容词,施用语“对”引介出一个表达受益或受损对象的非核心论元,这类形容词没有对应的动词。(2)一元形容词首先与一个抽象动词“感到”或“表现”合并形成动词短语,然后与施用语“对”合并,衍生出二元谓词性形容词。(3)表述恒定属性的形容词,不涉及任何对象,其论元结构中没有施用语投射,是典型的一元形容词。通过考察形容词做谓语的句法表现,本文深入分析了形容词的论元结构及在句法结构中引介论元的可能性和限制性,阐明了与结构关系相关联的词汇语义关系及现代汉语运用句法手段衍生新词的过程,这从一个侧面反映出汉语强分析性的参数特征。
