1、语言的范畴在不同的语言中有其统一性,但是也有歧异性,但是这都不成为抹杀范畴存在的理由。非现实范畴在语言中的表现也体现了范畴的这个特点。以往我们在概括句法规律的时候对非现实范畴的影响重视不够,加入了非现实范畴这个因素以后就需要重新审视我们对以往句法规律的概括。这是非现实范畴的研究意义。非现实范畴作为一种语义-句法范畴,使我们研究时采取了从意义到形式再到意义的方法。而在研究中,类型学的视野和认知语言学的理论方法是贯穿始终的。第二章探讨了非现实范畴的类型学地位以及它和其他概念的区别和联系。非现实范畴在不同的语言中表现有些差异,但是这并不能成为否定其类型学地位的理由。非现实的研究和情态的研究有很紧密的
2、联系。非现实研究的很多概念就直接来自情态研究的理论。严格地说,非现实的范围比情态研究的范围大。如果从语义上理解,将非现实范畴看成是一种情态也是可以接受的。但是非现实范畴的研究对象更为明确,成员更为清楚。非现实和虚拟语气也有差别,但是这种差别主要表现在句法上。非现实范畴作为一种语义-句法范畴,可以看成是比虚拟范畴更大的范畴。本章还介绍了汉语学界对汉语是否有反事实范畴的讨论。最后本章介绍了非现实范畴理论和心理空间理论的区别和联系,二者的研究对象有重合的地方,但是并不是完全一样。第三章针对非现实范畴在世界语言中表现出来的差异性进行研究,证明这样的歧异性是可以理解的,非现实范畴在语言中还是表现出了很强
3、的统一性。本章首先说明了非现实范畴是一个更有解释力的范畴,能够解释像时态这样的范畴所难以回答的问题。在非现实范畴的范畴化中,认知距离起到了很大的作7现代汉语非现实范畴的句法实现 用。对将来时态和其他的成分都有影响。本章根据认知语言学的理论,首先确定了非现实的原型,再在此基础上归纳出了原型的特点。然后看看其他非现实类型的相似性程度。在此基础上我们概括了非现实范畴的具体差异性表现,并从范畴化差异、中间状态、标记辖域、部分与整体、社会接受因素等方面作了说明。第四章在参照形式的基础上研究了现代汉语中非现实范畴的语义系统。在介绍了汉语学界对非现实范畴、非现实句的争论之后,我们提出了我们对非现实范畴的看法
4、,即非现实范畴在汉语中是一个语义-句法范畴,所以它的各种表现不是在一个平面上的。我们应该区分不同层面上的非现实,即要注意区分情态层面的非现实和语气层面的非现实。在说明本文的目标是研究情态层面的非现实,即非现实的句法实现以后,我们给出了非现实句的形式化判定标准。这使得我们将大量不是非现实范畴的句子区分开来。根据我们在第三章对非现实的原型特点的归纳,我们找出了现代汉语中各种非现实范畴的下位类型,研究它们和原型的相似性程度。在此基础上我们逐个论述了认识情态、义务情态、传信情态、潜势情态、习惯体等各种典型和非典型的非现实范畴。发现从典型的非现实范畴到不典型的非现实范畴是一个连续统,所以我们对成员不可能
5、作出非此即彼的划分。最后本章厘清了汉语对非现实的某些争议,还提出了对汉语情态、主观性和句类的思考。第五章研究非现实范畴在现代汉语中的形式表现。首先我们说明,非现实范畴不仅跨越不同的语言层面,还是在形式上具有多样性,这种多样性正是汉语的特点。本章依次介绍了汉语中的非现实范畴的语法表现,即情态动词、情态副词、时态副词、虚指语、带从句的动词以及复句结构。本章对非现实表现形式最为重要的两种即情态动词和情态副词的区分作了论述。在分析了前人对情态动词的鉴定方法和得出的范围之后,认为必须依靠一个核心意义来确定情态动词的范围。这个核心意义就是非现实。在分析情态动词时,我们将情态动词的各个语义进行了分析,认为情
6、态动词在典型性上也有高低。在分析情态副词时我们穷尽了汉语的情态副词。并对情态动词和情态副词的区分作了比较深入的探讨,认为情态副词和情态动词最重要的区别是在于是否表现了语言的限定形式,其他的区别都由此而来的。在对情态副词的分类后,我们给出了从动词-情态动词-句内情态副词-句外情态副词-语气词的连续统。本章还具体论述了将来副词“将”表现非现实的情况。虚指语表现非现实的情况,它们和认知距离有关,是认知的可及性语法化的结果。从句法的角度上还分析了带从句的动词构成的句子以及复句。这是作为第四章判断标准的补充。第六章研究了将来时间和非现实范畴的关系。涉及两个方面的问题,一是将来时态的非现实地位问题;二是否
7、定标记和非现实的关系。我们认为将来时8现代汉语非现实范畴的句法实现 虽然表示未发生的事件,其特征和表现手段还是比较复杂的。本文认为将来时作为一种范畴有如下特点:情态性、表现多样性、出现时间晚、非可证明性等几个特点。本文认为汉语也有时态这个语法范畴,汉语中的将来时态分为近时将来时和远时将来时,它们的非现实性程度是不一样的,远时将来更典型。而且,将来时的不同的标记的典型度也不一样。除了将来时态标记,说话人对将来事件的现实非现实的看法也影响着说话人对句法结构的选择。当表示计划好的近时将来或迫在眉睫的将来事件时,说话人倾向于选择现实时而不是将来时标记来表达,因为说话人把这样的将来事件看成是现实。本章还
8、论述了否定标记“不”的特点,认为“不”是非现实范畴的否定标记,表现了时间的通指性特征。在否定半非现实范畴时并不是唯一的选择。由于“不”的特点,它还进一步语法化,具有了假设的作用。第七章是本文的结论和余论。指出了今后需要着重研究的问题。关键词:非现实范畴 句法实现 情态 语气 认知距离 认识情态 义务情态 情态动词 情态副词 将来时 连续统 典型度9现代汉语非现实范畴的句法实现10现代汉语非现实范畴的句法实现AbstractThis paper is a study on Irrealis in modern Chinese, namely on how Irrealis is expresse

There are some discrepancies among languages but as a semantic-syntactic category, its quite understandable. Based on
10、 this concept, this paper thoroughly researches the syntactical realization of Irrealis in Chinese. We at first analyze its semantical sub-categories and conclude different Irrealis types with different typicality. Then the forms of Irrealis are explored. We also explore all kinds of future tenses a

It introduces the definition of Irrealis, the characteristics of linguistic categorization, the significance of Irrealis st
12、udy and this papers approach and theoretical background. Linguistic category has its universalities and its discrepancies among languages, but it can no be the reason to deny the existence of the category. Irrealis is no exception. In the previous syntactic study, we didnt pay enough attention to th
13、e influence of Irrealis. We should re-examine some syntactical conclusions if Irrealis is taken into account. This is the significance of Irrealis study. Because Irrealis is a semantical-syntactical category, we adopt from meaning to form and then back to meaning approach, with Typology as our persp

Its discrepancies in languages cant negate its typological status. There is a close connection between Irr

But Irrealis is more circumscribed. Irrealis
16、 is also different from Subjunctive mood, especially on syntactical aspect. Since Irrealis is a semantical-syntactical category, it can be considered as a bigger category than Subjunctive mood. This chapter also introduces the debate on whether Chinese has counter-factual category in Chinese linguis

There are superpositions between the two theories but they are different Chapter three is aimed to discrepancies of Irrealis shown in languages, proving the discr

It also show that in the categorization of Irrealis, cognitive distance plays a i
19、mportant role in it, influencing future tense and other elements. Based on Cognitive Theory, this chapter identifies the prototype of Irrealis, hence the characteristics are concluded so as to check the similarities between the prototype and other types of Irrealis. We also survey all discrepancies

After introducing the controversy on Irre
21、alis category and Irrealis sentences in Chinese linguistics society, we put forward our opinion about Irrealis: as a semantical-syntactical category, Irrealis can be realized in different levels of a language. So we should distinguish Irrealis in different levels, namely the Irrealis in Modality lev
22、el and in Mood level. After specifying our research target, namely the syntactical realization of Irrealis, we put forward our formal criterion on judging whether a sentence is an Irrealis sentence. So it makes possible to exclude non-Irrealis sentences from Irrealis sentences Basing on the characte
23、ristics we summarize in Chapter three, we survey all sub-categories of Irrealis, in order to compare them with the prototype of Irrealis. We study all sub-categories of Irrealis one by one, from Epistemic Irrealis, Deontic Irrealis, Evidential Irrealis, Potentiality Irrealis, to Habitual. We find ou
24、t that it is a continuum from typical Irrealis to atypical Irrealis. So it is hard to make a clear cut between them. At the end of this chapter, we clarify some ideas about Chinese Irrealis resulting from some debates and we elaborate our reflections about Chinese modalities, subjectivity and senten
25、ce types Chapter five is a study on all kinds of forms of Irrealis in Chinese. First of all, Irrealis not only crosses different levels of the language, but also has diversity of forms expressing Irrealis, which is a trait of Chinese Irrealis. This chapter examines all forms expressing Irrealis, inl

After surveying the identification methods and result of modal verbs
27、in the previous literature, we suggest we should use a core meaning to define the range of modal verbs. That is Irrealis. On modal verbs, we analyze all meaning of modal verbs and suggest modal verbs show different degree of typicality. As for modal adverbs, we thoroughly investigate all modal adver

After classifying all adverbs, we put forward the continuum: verb- modal verb- internal modal adverb- extern
29、al modal adverb- mood words This chapter also studies the future tense marker “Jiang”. It also examines how expletive words are related to Irrealis. It finds out that it is related to cognitive distance and the result of cognitive accessibility. Clause verbs and compound sentences are also studied f
30、rom aspect of syntactics concerning Irrealis Chapter six studies the relation between future time and Irrealis. It involves two issues. The first is about the Irrealis status of future tense. The second is about the relation between negation markers and Irrealis. We suggest although future tense describes those events that are not taken place, its characteristics and forms are complicated. We think it has following characteristics: modality, diversity of forms, late emergence and beyond evaluation. After confirming the existence of future tense in Chinese, we divide future tense
