This article depends on the corpus of brone inscriptions during West Zhou Dynasty. We make phrases as clues for dynalisis. After the segmentation of the phrases and marking the corpus of brone inscriptions in Western Zhou Dynasty, we sort out and describe main phrases:coordinate phrases(CP),subordinate phrases(SP),predicate phrases(PP). And to further discuss the structural and semantic features of these three phrases,from the within phrase to its’ outside order in the sentences. This paper was made by the combination between the study of inscriptions phrases and the analysis of word order.It is studied from a small angle to show some situation of the Early Chinese word order,so as to enrich the study of word order in the study of Chinese grammar, and proof some word order theory.First chapter:Introduction. During30years brone inscriptions and its grammar research were summerized,and the topics of the ideas in this article and its’ significance were described, then explaining issues related to this dissertation, the (?) of materials, handling and style for explames.Chapter Ⅱ:coordinate phrases(CP)and word order. In accordance with the time sequence, coordinate phrases divided into early, middle, and late in the Western Zhou. Made a detailed internal structure and grammatical functions of the different periods of the Phrase. According to whether using mark conjunction or not, the CP of Western Zhou Dynasty is divided into two categories:the unmarked conjunction of CP&marked conjunction of CP. According to different criteria in each category is divided into different subclasses. Mark conjunctions take’(?)(以)”“眔”“彶(及)”“雩(與)”“肆”for exmples. On this basis, we classified CP from structre and semantic points of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and then discussed the impact of factors restricting West Zhou Phrase whether the mark conjunctions, including parts of speech semantics factors, form (syntax, syllable) factors and language factors in three aspects.Chapter Ⅲ:subordinate phrases(SP) and word order. Given in the structure of the SP, there are two phrases(attributive of SP&adverbial of SP). Given in the phrase the attributive ingredients, the former can be divided into "single attributive" type and "multi-attributive" type. Different in accordance with the attributive constituent parts of speech (adjective, attributive nouns as attributive, pronouns as attribute, etc.), is divided into different subclasses. In "multi-attributive" type phrase, there are multiple attributive ingredients to modify the center word, the adjective that the things the size of the landscape are ever always before the adjective that the nature of things, the connotation of the adjective attributive front, while the adjective attributiv that people judge the nature of things also said the nature of the thing itself in front of the Adjective, the more forward farther from the center word. Pronouns with other words (nouns, adjectives) to even be used as attributive, the language of pronouns from the center distance is always the furthest. Like the attributive of SP, adverbial of SP in accordance with the number of adverbial constituent, is also divided into "single adverbial" and "multi-adverbial" categories. an adverb, adjective (position, time) noun, verb, etc can be as the composition of the adverbial.Multiple adverbial conjunction, in the point of near and far distance from the center word,the negative adverb adverbial is the farthest away from the center word; when other ingredients and the negative adverbs were used together as adverbial, It is generally present in this order:a negative meaning of the adverb adverbial> the attitude of modesty and respect adjunct adverbial> the willing attitude adverbial> the noun of the time adverbial> the adjectives describing the appearance of action or state situation adverbial>center language.In addition, this chapter also discusses a representation of the quantitative significance of attributive of SP in Western Zhou DynastyThe fourth chapter:predicate phrases(PP) and word order. The early Western Zhou Dynasty, the mid-late-verb phrases describing the analysis, structural features, semantic features and grammatical function of combing the usage of the predicate phrases(PP), and handed literature Zuozhuan was compared.And then we talk about the sentence of PP,especially on two types."主谓'表" in predicate phrases(PP) is relatively common in the lengthy brone inscriptions and the praises of the brone inscription, the general pre-predicate is used to emphasize certain characteristics and quality of the subject.The final appendix:The special ending of the brone inscriptions and word order. Through the use of combing the Western Zhou different period of ending of the brone inscriptions,summerizing the common formats and variable type, further analysis on phenomenon of dislocation of the ingredients in the imperative language,mainly from the analysis of adverbial ingredients to start, as the supplement to the adverbial of SP’s content, and the flexibility of the adverbial constituent is self-regularity of an expression in imperative language.
