This paper selects four groups of typical or atypical degree complement are studied,respectively "wu ke wu bu ke","bu yao bu yao de","bu de le","liao bu de","yao si","yao ming",on the basis of previous studies,combined with grammaticalization and lexicalization,the main concept of the theory,from the diachronic and synchronic two aspects,analyzes the degree of justice process.In addition,the paper summarizes four ways to obtain the degree of complement of the degree of idiom: from the condition to the degree,from the negative to the degree,from the functional to the degree,from the end to the degree.The paper includes the following parts:Chapter one: Introduction: This study determined the object and scope;the research status at home and abroad;the innovation and significance of this paper;brief introduction of this paper's the theoretical methods.Chapter two:From the condition to the degree--a case study of "wu ke wu bu ke" : This paper analyzed the diachronic evolution of the changing of syntactic position,as well as the meaning of the clause.On the basis of describing the usage of "wu ke wu bu ke",the author also makes a detailed description of the development and grammaticalization about it.what's more,it is argued that " wu ke wu bu ke " has a degree of meaning.As it talks about the amount of [+],it has experienced two stages:first,from the "no degree" to the "hidden degree";second,from the "hidden degree" to "significant degree".Chapter three: From the negative to the degree--a case study of "bu yao bu yao de" : "Bu yao bu yao de" as a modern degree of complement,it presents non-standardized,non-universal,style restrictions and the other characteristics.This section describes the syntactic function of "bu yao bu yao de",the pragmatic characteristics are commendation,vividness,extreme and additionality.The complement of degree "bu yao bu yao de" starts from the verb of "bu yao".The change of the syntactic position and meaning,wears away the negative meaning,finally has the degree semantics of "fei chang" and "shi fen".Chapter four: From the functional to the degree--a case study of "bu de liao" and "liao bu de"."bu de liao","liao bu de" are the two new degree of complement.In modern Chinese,there are a lot of similarities in the usage of two words.This papergives a full description and explanation of how to obtain the degree of meaning and evolve into the degree complement.What's more,this chapter makes a distinction about the usage of "bu de liao" and "liao bu de" : when subjective is higher than the objectivity,we tend to use degree complement "bu de liao";when objectivity is higher than the subjective,we tend to use "liao bu de";when the subjectivity and objectivity are equal,both of two words can exchange.Chapter five: From the end to the degree--a case study of "yao si" and "yao ming".The meaning of "yao si" and "yao ming" has gone through the process of lexicalization and grammaticalization.As a complement of degree,"Yao si",once appeared in the early Qin Dynasty,turns from serial verb construction.while the use in succession of "yao ming" is later,it is a verb object structure about in Ming Dynasty.This chapter argues that the most significant difference between "yao si" and "yao ming" is quantify the degree.When the speakers emphasize the deep level,they will use "yao si",besides the two are not interchangeable.When the speakers don't stress the degree,the two can be interchanged.Moreover,the difference of degree quantity is shown in the following aspects: the subjective and objective;the increase and the improvement of degree.Chapter six: It summarizes the access path of degree meaning: from the condition to the degree;from the negative to the degree;from the functional to the degree;from the end to the degree.In addition,the motivation of grammaticalization and lexicalization includes the semantic grammaticalization,the change of syntactic position,the improvement of the use frequency and the influence of the network media.
