現代中国語における移動動詞に関する認知的考察 : ―構文文法の観点から―

Abstract

Chinese motion verbs can be divided into two subtypes, (1) the directional motion verbs, (2) the manner motion verbs, depending on whether it is possible to abstract the semantic feature of directionality from the verb or not (Maruo 2005). This analysis is effective to explain why some linguistic expressions consisting of motion verb and noun (particularly loction noun ) are grammatical, such as “在公园里跑”“去公园”; some are not, such as “*在公园里去”“*跑公园” . However, it is difficult to explain some of the linguistic phenomena, such as “飞日本”“去一封信”“跑车站” and so on. In order to make a comprehensive description of these linguistic phenomena, this paper studies Chinese motion verbs from the viewpoint of Construction Grammar.
