Syntactic Environment and Path:Grammaticalization of the Serial Verb Construction in Bouyei Language
This paper concluded that the grammaticalization of the serial verb structure in Bouyei language basically conforms to the typological feature;that the asymmetric serial verb structure is easy to'grammaticalize'during a systematic study of the directional verbs ma1'come'and pai1'go',ʔau1'take'and kuə6'do'and teŋ1'suffer'and tɯk8'suffer'.In the aspect of grammaticalization path,there are five kinds of markers:trend marker,goal marker,perfective marker,disposal marker and passive marker.Among them,directional markers,perfective markers,dispositional markers and passive markers are typical approaches of typology,while goal markers may be the specific and atypical grammaticalization path of Bouyei language.
