Abstract

Shell noun (SN) use in learner writing has been studied in terms of SN choices and SN pattern choices, but less so in terms of SN-pattern co-selection (i.e. which patterns are used with which SNs). This study examined English SN choices and their preferred lexicogrammatical patterns in argumentative essays by speakers of Turkish and Japanese in order to find SN-pattern attraction in learner writing, compared to SN use in writing of native English speakers. Results indicate that learners understand SN functions, given pattern frequencies comparable to those of native speakers. However, there were differences among groups in which SNs were most strongly attracted to or repelled by the SN patterns. This prompted a qualitative investigation. Findings of non-native SN use are discussed with respect to word-sense categories and clause marking. Suggestions are made for further research.
以日语、土耳其语和英语为母语的人在英语议论文中的壳名词用法
已有研究从壳名词选择和壳名词模式选择两方面研究了壳名词在学习者写作中的使用情况,但对壳名词模式共选择(即哪些模式与哪些名词搭配使用)的研究较少。本研究考察了土耳其语和日语使用者在议论文中使用的英语SN选择及其首选的词汇语法模式,以发现SN模式在学习者写作中的吸引力,并将其与母语为英语的人在写作中使用的SN进行比较。结果表明,在给定的模式频率下,学习者可以理解与母语人士相当的SN函数。然而,在不同的群体中,SNs对SN模式的吸引或排斥程度是不同的。这促使了一项定性调查。本文从词义范畴和子句标注两个方面讨论了非本族语的语义语义使用情况。提出了进一步研究的建议。
