Then, according to corpus, the use of modern Chinese classifier theory and methods,"Shishuoxinyu" quantifier syntax, semantic feature a comprehensive analysis. Finally, quantitative and qualitative analysis, based on the use of classifiers are summarized.This paper is divided into two parts:The first part is an introduction,it will introduct the research on the Middle Chinese,"Shishuoxinyu" is the text classifier and classification systems are introduced; the second part is based on, respectively,"said noun measure word "in the name of the Classifiers and momentum grammatical features and semantic features were analyzed. And it is concluded that "Shishuoxinyu" and the use of classifiers overall features, but also use more contemporary methods and the use of classifiers are compared, highlighting the text classifiers use features.Through quantitative and qualitative analysis,"Shishuoxinyu" can reflect preliminary understanding of quantifiers. Classifiers using more developed, to borrow the name of the Classifiers are more basic to its use reflect the current status of Classifiers development. Momentum less frequently used words, only a few sporadic, but there have been borrowing a bit of momentum term, compared to the same period, the momentum of the text used the word "Shi" use of the word momentum is not developed, nor momentum term was used not reflect the face. This is also one of its characteristics, and the use of quantifiers is also reflected from the side "Shi" the main content of the text and themes, namely, the Wei and Jin demeanor-talk, alcohol and seclusion。In a word, the measure words in "Shishuoxinyu" use very frequently, large physical expression profiles Wei, quantifiers, at the same time, reflecting the common character, that is different from the characteristics of contemporary quantifier has its own unique research value.
