摘要
具有性状指示词性质的"许"是近现代汉语中一个特殊而重要的指示词,但其来源与形成迄今未得到合理的解释。通过调查我们发现,性状指示词"许"并非来源于单一途径,其形成也不能用"语法化"或"词汇化"来分析。"许"的源结构是魏晋以来的指示词"尔许"、"如许"及其所在的结构形式,"许"是"尔许"、"如许"及其所在结构形式在历时演变过程中受汉语韵律构词规则制约而形成的。性状指示词"许"的形成是历时层面上韵律构词运作的典型个案,这类研究对韵律构词学理论的推演或深入探讨也具有积极意义。
The morpheme xu indicating properties is an important and unique demonstrative in the modern and contemporary Chinese language, of which the origin and development presents a perplexing case for linguistics. According to our research, the property demonstrative xu did not develop along a single pathway, and cannot be adequately accounted for by patterns such as grammaticalization and lexicalization. The origins of xu were the demonstrative erxu, ruxu and their constructions, from which xu took shape through a diachronic process of prosodic operation. As a typical change of prosodic operation on the diachronic level, the study of the formation of the property demonstrative xu will contribute to the expansion of the prosodic morphology theory.
