摘要
本文讨论北部吴语"V快"中的体助词"快"从中心谓语成分虚化为助词的原因、过程和特点,指出它并不是一个后置的状语,而是由位于句末的谓语实词虚化而成。其语法化过程呈现出一条完整的语法化链。它的特点在于,不同于常说的原连动句式中一个动词发生虚化,而是原来处于核心地位的谓语演变为语法词。但它仍然体现了语法化的共性,符合语法化的一般规律。
This paper discusses the motivations, course and characteristics of the grammaticalization of the postverbal aspect particle kuai from the original main predicate in'V kuai'in the northern Wu dialects. It proves that kuai is a particle grammaticalized from an adjective denoting immediate future aspect in the sentence-final position, instead of a postverbal adverb. Although it is peculiar in its grammaticalization that the original form is not the V2 in a serial verbs construction, it is nonetheless in accordance with the general rules of grammaticalization.
