Non-correspondence of the Parts of speech to the syntactic components characterizes fundamentally and thoroughly Chinese grammar in comparison with Indian&European grammar.However,tendentiousness and unbalance exist in the Heterogeneous mappings,which means some word class tends to serve as a certain syntactic component and a special syntactic component admits preferentially and particularly some or other word classes.Previous studies concentrate mostly and macroscopically on description and explanation of the phenomena,ignoring the influence of stylistic factors.This study investigates it with the quantitative method from the perspective of style.Ten Editorial Texts from People Daily in 2016 and stage lines in the family situation drama Children at home《家有儿女》are included in our studies representing respectively written Chinese.data and spoken Chinese corpus.POS Tagging is performed based on Modern Chinese Dictionary(6th Edition)and syntactic ingredient tagging is conducted in reference to head-word analysis and analytic hierarchy process.First,frequency and standard deviation of frequency are computed to observe the difference across styles.Second,rank sum test is employed to determine whether the difference is statistical significance.Then we examine the covariation in use of correlation coefficient.Finally,regression analysis contributes to a more exact description to the covariation.We conclude from the study that 1)the adjectives pertain to a word class of low-prototype degree.2)the attribute has highly open POS permission.3)the correspondence of the Parts of speech to the syntactic components varies significantly across styles.
