Contrastive Studies of Grammaticalization and Categorization in East Asian Languages : From Particulars to Universals

在本研究项目中，我们对东亚语言的范畴化和语法化进行了大规模的跨语言/跨方言调查。该项目的八名成员，即上文所述的六名成员，以及井上正郎(国家日语研究所)和出水星司(东京外国语大学)，每年都举行定期会议。2005年，也就是该项目的最后一年，项目负责人在日本语言学会年会上组织了一次名为《东亚语言语法化和范式化对比研究：特别是语态和空间表达》的研讨会，项目成员在会上阅读了关于汉语方言中给予动词的语法化、日语、汉语和韩语的被动句类型以及越南语和汉语的语法化和语法化的论文。项目成员的更多具体研究活动是…更多信息如下。木村研究了与语音相关的一些现象中的“结构化和范畴化”，木村和杨研究了汉语被动标记动词的语法化。Washio利用荷兰语、法语、古典/现代日语、韩语和蒙古语等语言的数据，对结果句、被动句和非宾格句等相关问题进行了跨语言研究。井上在研究日语、汉语和韩语时，提出了一种基于“情感”和“成为”等概念的被动句类型学。Ogoshi发现了韩语中使用被动表达的一些限制因素。拉马尔研究了一些汉语方言、越南语、泰语和日语中情态和空间表达的语法范畴的兴起和语法化的机制。村上研究了语法化的过程，例如越南语中趋向动词的“状态化”，并将它们与日语和汉语中可能的对应物进行了比较。Hoshi从语法化的角度对名词化词缀进行了研究，重点考察了一些涉及名词化词缀的动词结构的语义变化。较少

In the present research project, we conducted some large-scale cross-linguistic/cross-dialectal investigations into the categorization and grammaticalization in East Asian languages. The eight members of the project, the six given above, together with Masaru Inoue (The National Institute for Japanese Language) and Izumi Hoshi (Tokyo University of Foreign Studies), had regular meetings each year. In 2005, the last year of the project, the project leader organized a workshop called "Contrastive Studies of Grammaticalization and Categorization in East Asian Languages : with Special Reference to Voice and Spatial Expressions" at the 131^<st> Annual Meeting of the Linguistic Society of Japan, where the project members read papers on the grammaticalization of verbs of giving in the Chinese dialects, on the typology of passives in Japanese, Chinese and Korean, and on the categorization and grammaticalization in Vietnamese and Chinese.More specific research activities by the project members ar … More e as follows. KIMURA researched on "structuralization and categorization" in some voice-related phenomena, and KIMURA and YANG on the grammaticalization of verbs of giving into passive markers in Chinese. WASHIO conducted a cross-linguistic research on issues related to resultatives, passives and unaccusativity, drawing on data from languages like Dutch, French, Classical/Modern Japanese, Korean and Mongolian. INOUE, working on Japanese, Chinese and Korean, suggested a typology of passives based on notions like "affect" and "become." OGOSHI identified some constraints on the use of passive expressions in Korean. LAMARRE researched into the rise of grammatical categories and the mechanisms of grammaticalization regarding modality and spatial expressions in some Chinese dialects, Vietnamese, Thai and Japanese. MURAKAMI worked on processes of grammaticalization such as the "adverbialization" of directional verbs in Vietnamese, comparing them with their possible counterparts in Japanese and Chinese. HOSHI researched on nominalizing affixes from a perspective of grammaticalization, with focus on the semantic changes observed in some verbal constructions involving nominalizing affixes. Less
