两种理论视角下英汉中动结构的对比研究

英汉中动结构的特征是通常缺少具体的时间指称,施事在句法上通常为隐含形式,代之的是受事主语。英语中动结构的基本形式是NP＋V＋Adv,而汉语中动结构的基本形式是NP＋V＋qilai＋Adj,但是两者的核心语义都是表达状态意义而非动作意义。由于Goldberg构式语法过分强调构式义的独立性,而忽略句子组成部分对句义的贡献,对英汉中动结构语义特征的解释难以让人满意;从认知语法的识解理论出发,对英汉中动结构可以作出合理的解释。

ECMC:A Contrast between the Perspectives of Two Theories

ECMC are characterized by a lack of specific time reference and an implicit agent. In addition, the subject of ECMC is a patient. The basic structure of EMC is NP＋V＋Adv and the basic structure of CMC is NP＋ V ＋qilai＋Adj, both of which express the static meaning, not the dynamic meaning. Goldberg＇s Construction Grammar overemphasizes the independence of construction meaning and ignores the contribution of the sentential components to the meaning of sentences. So it is argued that this approach cannot be satisfactory. On the basis of the construal theory of Cognitive Grammar, we can have a satisfying explanation about ECMC.
