Abstract

Applying frame semantics, usage-based construction grammar, and quantitative corpus-based methodology, this article seeks to explore the nature of the extraposed construction with past participles complemented by that -clauses. To this end, the author extracts the occurrences of the It BE V en that-construction from the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA), determines its structural, semantic, distributional, and discourse-functional features, and identifies verbs that are strongly associated with the construction in question. The study meaningfully contributes to a growing body of research on it-extraposition by conducting a qualitative and quantitative analysis of one of its variants, a grammatical pattern with past participles that has not been hitherto investigated in much detail from a quantitative corpus-based perspective.
过去分词和that分句的it外置:基于语料库的定量分析
本文运用框架语义、基于用法的结构语法和基于定量语料库的方法,试图探索过去分词与that从句互补的推断结构的本质。为此,作者从《当代美国英语语料库》中提取了It BE V en that结构的出现,确定了其结构、语义、分布和语篇功能特征,并确定了与该结构密切相关的动词。这项研究通过对其变体之一进行定性和定量分析,为越来越多的关于其推断的研究做出了有意义的贡献,该变体是一种带有过去分词的语法模式,迄今为止尚未从基于定量语料库的角度进行过太多详细的研究。
