【摘要】 语义韵研究走过了二十年的历史,为语料库语言学提供了具有洞察力的语义描写工具,拓展了弗斯学派的经典搭配研究,对外语教学、辞书编撰和语言对比贡献良多。但是,受理论目标和研究方法所限,一些重要的理论内部问题一直悬而未决,如语义韵的性质、所属单位、极性描写、调查手段,以及语义韵与涵义、语义韵与语义偏好的关系。本文为上述问题提供解答,正本清源,并证明语义韵术语虽具有描写便利,但尚属经验术语范畴,缺乏理论术语的严谨性和自洽力。更多还原

【Abstract】 Despite substantial contribution to a wide range of research topics in corpus linguistics,language teaching,lexicography and cross-linguistic studies,semantic prosody is a much-beleaguered concept.

It attempts to demonstrate that the concept of semantic prosody is nothing but a convenient descriptive shorthand,and as such it lacks the strength and consistency of a theoretical term.更多还原
