The "是 N1V 的N2" is a common pattern in the grammar of contemprary Chinese. The pattern is complicated and some phrases which could belong in the pattern are ambiguous. On the basis of the data that had got from Chinese colloquial speech, the pattern should be studied from three aspects in this thesis: syntax, semantics and pragmatics. The main content include:1.Analyzed the function of "是" and "的" , making sure that "是" is a verb by which expressing judgement and "的" is a auxiliary word. "的" have two function: one is to link two structures, the other is to indicate time and aspect of verbs. The "是 NiV 的N2" pattern was classified into A type and B type by the different function of "的" . Meanwhile, the grammatical function of the pattern was analyzed.2.Descriped the semantic types of Ni and N2 and generalized the possible types of the semantic combination in the pattern. There are 5 main types and 15 branch types all together. Analyzed the relationship between syntactic structure and the semantic combination when N1 is an agent.3.Analyzed the relationship between syntactic structure and semantic combination respectively when Nlis time, place, material or tool and possessor in the pattern. A table was arranged to summarize the relationship.4.Descripted ten types of semantic combination which are possible having ambiguty and how to slit up the ambiguous phrases.5.Analyzed the difference between A type and B type from three aspects: expressing emphasis,extent of jurisdiction of "是" and presupposition.
