对强制性或公式化的XVS结构的分析--如“太阳来了”或“现在是解决我们问题的时候了”--在文献中一直被忽视，因为人们一直认为这些类型的句法结构的使用似乎没有涉及语言变异。在这里，我捍卫这样的观点：强制性XVS结构是富有成效的、高度结构化的结构，值得认真的语言学研究。基于语料库的书面和口头文本的分析的基础上，有人认为，不同的强制性XVS类型区分在文献中的构造语法框架中理解的结构是明确的例子。尽管他们的形式和功能的差异，本文表明，这些XVS结构仍然涉及到彼此在系统和可预测的方式，事实上是分组的关系，在示意图网络中的一个单元，这是自然最突出的-原型-和形式与它的一个家庭的节点是从原型的扩展-在系统中。总之，这里的分析将表明，强制性XVS结构是形成一个互连的结构化系统或网络的结构，并且最好参考不同形式的继承来理解。
Abstract The analysis of obligatory or formulaic XVS structures - as in “Here comes the sun” or “Now is the time to solve our problems” - has been neglected in the literature since it has been argued that there seems to be no linguistic variation involved in the use of these types of syntactic constructions. Here, I defend the view that obligatory XVS structures are productive, highly structured constructions which are worthy of serious linguistic investigation. On the basis of a corpus-based analysis of written and spoken texts, it is argued that the different obligatory XVS types distinguished in the literature are clear instances of constructions as understood in the Construction Grammar framework. Despite their formal and functional dissimilarities, the article shows that these XVS structures still relate to one another in systematic and predictable ways, and are in fact grouped in relation to a unit in the schematic network which is naturally most salient - the prototype - and form with it a family of nodes which are extensions from the prototype - in the system. In sum, the analysis here will show that obligatory XVS structures are constructions which form an interconnected, structured system or network and are best understood with reference to different forms of inheritance.
