1、宁波大学 硕士学位论文 英汉语完成体语法化比较研究 姓名:王银霞 申请学位级别:硕士 专业:外国语言学及应用语言学 指导教师:杨成虎 20071202 MA Thesis Ningbo University - I - 英汉语完成体语法化比较研究 摘 要 完成体是语言学研究中一个焦点问题。在英汉两种语言学中,研究者从不同的方 面分别对英汉语言中的完成体进行过较为深入的探讨。其中,利用具体语料的跨语言 研究(Comrie, 1976; Dahl, 1985;Smith, 1991;Bhat, 1999 等)通过对各种语言中完成 体的详细描写和哲学分析,确立了完成体是语言学中的普遍性概念,这对正确

2、描述完 成体有着重要的意义。然而,共时平面的“完成体”现象离开历时的发展往往不能得 到完整的解释。因此语言研究者试图从另一视角语法化角度对共时平面的完成体 范畴作出合理的解释(Hopper Heine, 1997)。但在英语和汉语中,已有 的研究着重于对这两种语言中完成体现象共时或历时语料的单纯描写,较少有人(石 毓智,2001)能够从完成体语法化的机制和动因方面进行讨论,所采用的研究方法也 较为单一。同时,对英汉语言中完成体的语法化还缺少较为系统的比较研究。两种语 言中完成体的演变是否有一些相同和不同的过程、特点,是否有相似的演变机制,尚 有待验证。 本文以语法化理论为研究的出发点,采用以语

3、料库为主的研究方法,利用翔实的 语料尝试对英汉语中完成体的演变过程、特点进行对比研究和分析,以探究两种语言 中语法化的异同,揭示英汉两种语言中完成体语法化的机制和动因。 本文共分五章: 第一章为引言,介绍了本选题的价值以及本文的框架结构。第二章为文献综述, 介绍国内外有关于语法化、完成体的研究,以及对相关理论的评述。第三章主要利用 英语语料库、汉语语料库和相关的文献资料选用语料,运用 WordSmith4 语料库软件及 网络检索软件进行词频统计,分别从语义虚化、形态变迁、句法结构等方面描述英汉 语中完成体的语法化途径。第四章讨论英汉语两种语言中完成体语法化的异同特征, 从而揭示语法化演变的异同

However, most existing researches in English and Chinese focus on simple identification of perfect forms with synchronic or diachronic data, only a small nu
