| 摘 要： 复合法是词语组合中常见的构词法。出现在复合词中的非限定动词仍具备分句结构特征，因为这种复合词结构体现出语义述谓结构完型框架的映射。非限定动词复合词是体现语义认知的完型结构，其本质是体现述谓结构的从属分句结构的词汇化。遵循“语义是词汇的核心”原则，从认知语言学视角，对非限定复合词进行研究，强调非限定动词的语态演算和语义关系在词汇组合中的完整性。语言中，动词是呈现语义关系的核心。非限定动词的从属性和语义完整性都在非限定复合词结构中表现得很充分：这种结构的语态不是随意的，更没有违反语态语法范畴。非限定复合词的语言表达都基于语义框架的认知规律，反映了语言与思维的动态互动关系。 |

| Abstract: Compounding is a major way of word formation. The non-finite VP embedded in a compound retains the syntactic features of a clause and embodies the mapping of its counterpart semantic framework. The non-finite compound, whose essence consists in lexicalization resulting from the clausal structure of a predication, is a gestalt construction that symbolizes the semantic cognition. Based on the principle that semantics is the heart of lexicon, this paper is to study the non-finite compounding, placing a great emphasis on voice calculation and on the intactness of a certain semantic relationship in word formation. The VP serves as the core of the semantic relationship in language. The non-finite VP in English compounds is characteristic of the syntactic subordination and semantic intactness, which verifies the hypothesis that the voice in such compound is not generated at random. The representation of a non-finite VP compound is deeply rooted in the cognition of the semantic framework, which throws light on the dynamic interaction between language and thought. |
