日语复合型副词用法分析——以“もう少し”“もうちょっと”为例

An Analysis of the Usage of Compound Adverbs in Japanese—Taking MOUSUKOSI and MOUCHOTTO as Examples

摘要: 本研究以现代日语书写语言均衡语料库(BCCWJ)为基础，采用定量的分析方法，对复合型副词的“もう少し”、“もうちょっと”的各用法进行详细的研究。本文得出如下结论：“もう少し”、“もうちょっと”具有“催促”、“意志・愿望”、“反事实”、“必要判断”、“假设条件”五种用法。另外，在各自的用法中，可以看出在其所在的句法环境中，容易与包含条件节的特定的叙法形式发生共起关系。因此，笔者认为该副词不仅是程度副词，还可能是同时兼跨叙法副词的作用。

Abstract: Based on the Balanced Corpus of Modern Japanese Written Language (BCCWJ), this study uses quantitative analysis methods to conduct a detailed study on the usages of “MOUSUKOSI” and “MOUCHOTTO” of compound adverbs. This paper draws the following conclusions: “MOUSUKOSI” and “MOUCHOTTO” have five usages: “urging”, “will∙wish”, “counterfactual”, “necessary judgment” and “assumption”. In addition, in their respective usages, it can be seen that in their syntactic envi-ronment, they tend to have a common relationship with specific grammatical forms including con-ditional clauses. Therefore, the author thinks that this adverb is not only an adverb of degree, but may also function as an adverb of cross-descriptive at the same time.
