摘要
汉语名词往往有多个语义解读.文章借助类型组合逻辑,依据联合述谓结构、个体化及计数原则,定义内在多义性名词为合成类型,并对其进行相应的分类.不同于生词库理论,文章认为个体化实则是谓词与名词特定义面构成的述谓结构,而述谓结构改变的仅仅是义面与谓词间的语义联系,不应改变名词原本的合成类型.此外,计数源于量词对某一义面或合成类型本身进行的量化操作,因此量化对象依赖个体化的结果.文章运用的"义面选择"应被看作语义组合的另一普遍规则.
Abstract
Chinese nouns often allow for multiple semantic interpretations.Based on Type Composition Logic,together with the principles of co-predica-tion,individualization and counting,this paper defines inherently polysemous nouns as dot types,and classifies them in distinct categories accordingly.Dif-ferent from the Generative Lexicon,we argue that individuation is indeed a kind of predication formed by the predicate and a specific lexical aspect of the noun.Furthermore,predications only affect the semantic relationship between the inherent lexical aspect of the noun and the predicate,thus should not transform its original dot type.In addition,counting results from the quantifi-cational operation of a quantifier on a specific lexical aspect or a dot type it-self,and consequently the quantified object depends on what is individualized."Aspect selection"applied in this paper should be considered an additional general rule in the compositional semantics.
