This paper takes 314 two-syllable nouns as research objects and analyzes and elaborates from the following three aspects:The first is to analyze the categories of traits of nouns.From the perspective of the relationship between the noun and the resulting traits,we divide the traits of nouns into two categories: one is the intrinsic trait from the noun itself;the other is the trait from human being attached to the noun.The second is to analyze the process of the generation of these noun traits.This paper considers that there are five kinds of sources in the noun that contain five kinds of physical structures as nouns,which are form role,composition role,function role,exertion role and evaluation role.The traits of the nouns from the first four physical structures are the traits of the noun itself,and the traits of the nouns from the latter physical structure are artificially attached traits.Through quantitative statistics,it is found that the main source of noun traits comes from the noun itself,accounting for about 85.7%.Among the five physical role sources,it is highlighted that the role of the actor has the most traits,accounting for 29.6%;the least prominent role,accounting for 12.1%.Judging from the subtle categories of prominent physical characters,the positional meaning of the prominent characters is the most,accounting for 14.6%.The third is to discuss the development of these terms with traits.In addition to the fact that some nouns are subject to a syntactic position that can only be after a noun,and thus cannot be further developed in function,other nouns with traits have different degrees of syntactic function.This paper argues that they are functionally equivalent to distinguishing words,nature adjectives,state adjectives,and adverbs.Through qualitative and quantitative analysis of 173 non-categorical noun traits,we find that 90.8% of nouns first declassify the distinguished words,6.9% of the nouns are functionally close to adjectives,and only 2.3% of nouns Functionally close to adverbs.It can be seen that it is relatively easy to develop a noun into a distinguished word.It is more difficult to develop into an adjective.It is most difficult to develop into an adverb.Before a noun develops the function of an adjective or an adverb,most of it needs to go through the stage of distinguishing words...
