The Range and Classification of Probabilistic Modal Adverbs in Modern Chinese
In view of the problems left by previous studies,based on linguistic facts,this paper discusses the scope and classification of probabilistic modal adverbs in modern Chinese.After establishing the definition standard of probabilistic modal adverbs,this paper identifies and selects 49 probabilistic modal adverbs in mod-ern Chinese.On this basis,according to syntactic and semantic standards,probable modal adverbs are divided into three lower subclasses:high,medium and low.Therefore,it can provide the preliminary research basis for the micro-level case and comparative study.
