摘要本研究考察了汉语析取结构的历时发展,对历时构式语法的原则和析取结构的语言类型学都有一定的启示。通过对历史语料库中的数据进行仔细的分析,我们发现汉语析取结构的发展是基于概念起源、构式模式、话语语用学和孤立类型学之间复杂而又有原则的相互作用而发生的非线性、渐进的构式变化。具体而言,研究结果表明:(1)构式是变化的来源、单位和产物;(2)句法和语义再分析在导致析取结构化的微观变化中起着关键作用;(3)认知不确定性和析取结构之间具有概念上和历时上的连续性,(4)强调使用频率是结构图式规约化和巩固的驱动力,(5)确认了孤立类型学在句法和范畴再分配中的作用,认为这是语法构式化的关键步骤。
Abstract This study investigates the diachronic development of Chinese disjunction, drawing implications both for principles of diachronic Construction Grammar, and for the linguistic typology of disjunction. Close examinations of data from historical corpora revealed non-linear, gradual constructional changes based on complex yet principled interactions of conceptual origin, constructional patterning, discourse pragmatics, and an isolating typology in the development of Chinese disjunction. Specifically, the results (1) show that construction is the source, unit and product of change, (2) demonstrate the pivotal role of syntactic and semantic reanalysis in the micro changes leading to the constructionalization of disjunction, (3) reveal a conceptual and diachronic continuity between epistemic uncertainty and disjunction, (4) highlight frequency of use as a driving force in the conventionalization and entrenchment of constructional schema, and (5) confirm the role played by an isolating typology in syntactic and categorial reassignment as a key step in grammatical constructionalization.
