Research on the Association Relationship Between Type-of-Words of Monosyllabic Word in the Modern Chinese

摘要

In order to further enrich the related research work of monosyllabic words, the type-of-words issue of monosyllabic word in the modern Chinese was investigated. Firstly, the monosyllabic words which were marked with the type-of-word in Modern Chinese Dictionary (the 7th edition), were statistically analyzed. The analysis results showed that most of monosyllabic words were the mono-type-of-word words, and monosyllabic words had the characteristic of multi-types-of-word. Subsequently, the association relationship between type-of-words of monosyllabic words was investigated from the perspective of synchronic plane. The investigation results showed that the relationships between verb-type-of-word and other-type-of-word were the most complex, the interrelated relations among noun-type-of-word, verb-type-of-word and adjective-type-of-word were existed, the interrelated relations among adjective-type-of-word, verb-type-of-word and adverb-type-of-word were also existed, etc. Furthermore, the cognitive semantics was used to study the relationship regulations among multi-types-of-words. It was found that nouns and verbs can derive adjective usage, verbs can produce adverb usage, etc, as a result of that the peoples recognized things from concrete to abstract. In this way, the relationship regulations between multi-types-of-words were gained.
