There is a trend to become double-syllable words in the development of Chinese language, and the verb is the center of a sentence. So double-syllable verbs are Major manifestations in the development of Chinese language. The coordinative and double-syllable verbs on the formation level are superposition in the semantic of two same, similar or opposite words, and then integrated into a new structure. Constructions integrating is a blend on the grammar level. The emergence of superposition phenomenon is based on the identity of the word or concept. The innovative phenomenon occurs not only in word formation, also in the grammar. This paper takes the coordinative and double-syllable verbs as the research object in Hanshu, researching and analysising from the syntactic distribution and semantic function of the coordinative and double-syllable verbs. Based on the actual corpus, This paper is divided into Action Verbs, Start-stop Verbs, State Verbs and Perception Verbs.The synonymous combination of the coordinative and double-syllable verbs in Hanshu with the characteristics of high combination. After combination, the overall meaning can also be expressed by the sum of composition and structure meanings. The structural meanings or the functions are determined by the compositions. The coordinative and double-syllable verbs are the same as the monosyllable verbs in the syntactic structures, they aren't constrained by the other factors, and they are free and open in the linear structure. In the syntactic relations, The coordinative and double-syllable verbs can be co-occurrenced with not only the argument must be used, also the available argument in the syntactic relations. Already allocated to meet the requirements of the grammar system, This has been meet the requirements of the distribution of grammatical systems. The coordinative and double-syllable verbs have a common characteristic:whether subject compartment or across sentence, they require the subject to be co-occurrence compulsively, although some of the subjects are any means. According to the statistics, when the meaning depicted by the verb is the subject itself, The requirements of core predicate on the subject should be more strongly, and the situation of closing to the subject will be more naturally. Such as the examples of state verbs closing to the subject are more than action verbs obviously. The coordinative and double-syllable verbs in Hanshu have no mandatory requirements for the co-occurrence of the objects or other available ingredients. Although the objects and the predicate verbs are most closely originally, and the verb-object structure is at the highest level of syntactic relations, only when the two-syllable core predicate verbs cross sentences with the subject, they have mandatory requirements on the object. On the semantic function, The combined words are composed of two same, similar or opposite morphemes in the semantic, each morpheme have the implication of the original semantic more or less, it reflects two-way balance of collocation, Therefore, the semantic is more extensive. Some two-syllable verbs in the process of an objective description also implies more intense subjective feelings, it reflects that language subjects implied subjective factors in objective statements.Through research we found that the coordinative and double-syllable verbs in Hanshu show a high degree consistency characteristics with the monosyllable verbs in the structure. So we hold the opinion that the coordinative and double-syllable verbs in Hanshu have had the grammatical function when they in the development and maturity period.
