Compound Directional Complements And Object Co-occurrence Location

IN THIS ARTICLE I CHOSE FIVE COMPOUND DIRECTIONAL COMPLEMENTS (CDC)"QILAI, CHULAI, CHUQU, GUOLAI, GUOQU"AS THE OBJECT OF STUDY. IN MY RESEARCH I ANALYZED THE CORPUS TO FIND THE RULE GOVERNING THE USE OF THESE FIVE COMPOUND DIRECTIONAL COMPLEMENTS AND OBJECTS TOGETHER. THE GENERAL CONSENSUS AMONG AUTHORITIES HAS BEEN THAT THERE ARE FOUR DIFFERENT POSSIBLE PATTERN OF CDC AND OBJECTS IN THE SENTENCE, BUT I BELIEVE THERE ARE ACTUALLY FIVE: (1).V+N+C1+C2; (2).V+C1+N+C2; (3)V+C1+C2+N; (4)BA+N+V+C1+C2; (5)N+V+C1+C2. THE N MENTIONED HERE IS NOT JUST THE OBJECT BUT IS ALSO THE PATIENT ROLE. THEREBY, THE RANGE OF STUDY INCLUDES BOTH THE USE OF THE EXISTING FOUR COMPOUND DIRECTIONAL COMPLEMENTS, AS WELL AS A FIFTH PATTERN WHICH FOR THE FIRST TIME CONSIDERS THE "PATIENT ROLE". THE FIFTH PATTERN IS WITH THE PATIENT ROLE AS A SUBJECT. BASED ON THE CORPUS OF CENTER FOR CHINESE LINGUISTICS PKU, I ANALYSED 50,000 SENTENCES WHICH INCLUDE THESE FIVE PATTERNS. EVEN THOUGH THE COMPOUND DIRECTIONAL COMPLEMENTS ARE A CLOSED GROUP, HOWEVER EACH ONE OF THEM HAS ITS OWN PARTICULARITY AND ITS OWN USAGE, WHEN THEY OCCUR TOGETHER WITH THE OBJECT. CDC`S POSITION IN THE SENTENCE CHANGES ACCORDING TO ITS DIFFERENT SENSE. RESEARCH INDICATES THAT THE VARIANCE OF SENTENCE STRUCTURE IS DEPENDS MAINLY ON THE MEANING OF THE CDC.
