摘要
在现已灭绝的旺格鲁格岛的弗里斯兰方言中,命名动词heit“被称为”已经部分地在语法上变成了动词“to be”,在某种程度上与原始的动词wízze“to be”竞争。在本文中,我讨论了一些细节的发展和现状,并考虑它可能告诉一个关于公语从句的分类(希金斯1979)。从命名动词到连词的功能变化最初发生在识别连词从句中。从那里,它扩展到分类和具体的流行分句,但没有到谓词分句。这一发展表明,一方面,谓语从句和另一方面,识别从句(被认为包括分类、指定和等同)之间有原则性的区别。然而,这并不意味着heit是一个识别联系词,或者它选择了一个识别小子句。我分析了作为wízze ' to be '的补充异形体的与识别小句一起使用的copular heit
From Naming Verb to Copula: The Case of Wangerooge Frisian Heit
In the now extinct Frisian dialect of the island of Wangerooge, the naming verb heit ‘to be called’ had partially grammaticalized into a copular verb ‘to be’ competing, to some extent, with the original copula wízze ‘to be’. In this paper, I discuss the development and the status of the copula heit in some detail and consider what it might tell one about the taxonomy of copular clauses (Higgins 1979). I show that the functional change from naming verb to copula initially occurred in identificational copular clauses. From there heit spread to classifi-cational and specificational copular clauses, but not to predicational ones. This development suggests a principled distinction between predicational copular clauses on the one hand and identificational copular clauses (conceived as comprising classifying, specifying, and equating ones) on the other. This does not imply, however, that heit is an identificational copula or that it selects an identificational small clause. I analyze copular heit used with an identificational small clause as a suppletive allomorph of wízze ‘to be’.*
