摘要

摘要短语动词(PV)由一个词汇动词和一个状语助词组成,由于其句法特点和语义复杂性,即使是对高级英语学习者来说,也是一个众所周知的困难多词单元类别。非母语专业口译员在英语同声传译中使用PVs的频率也比母语口译员低得多。本研究旨在生成一个教学列表,其中包含最常见的PVs及其主要含义,用于会议口译目的。采用基于语料库的方法来识别724054单词语料库中的PV,该语料库包括在欧洲议会全体会议期间翻译成英语或用英语进行的转录演讲。在总共461个PV中,169个PV超过了最低频率阈值。它们占语料库中所有PV出现的87.07%,表明PV的前1/3占主导地位。语义分析表明,169个PV的关键意义数量相对较少(平均为两个),主要意义占主导地位。作为在线补充材料,欧洲议会会议英语短语动词教学列表(EP-CE PHaVE列表)包含了这些最常见的169个PV、它们的主要含义和从语料库中提取的例句。

Phrasal verbs in European Parliament conference English: a corpus-based pedagogical list
ABSTRACT Phrasal verbs (PVs), comprising a lexical verb and an adverbial particle, are a notoriously difficult category of multiword units even for advanced learners of English because of their syntactic peculiarity and semantic complexity. Non-native professional interpreters have also been found to use PVs much less often than their native counterparts in simultaneous interpreting into English. This study aims to generate a pedagogical list containing the most frequent PVs and their major meanings for conference interpreting purposes. A corpus-based approach was adopted to identify PVs in a 724,054-word corpus comprising transcribed speeches interpreted into or held in English during the European Parliament plenary sessions. Out of a total of 461 PVs, 169 PVs crossed the lowest frequency threshold. They make up 87.07% of all PV occurrences in the corpus, suggesting the dominance of the top 1/3 of the PVs. Semantic analysis showed that the 169 PVs have a relatively small number of key meanings (two on average), and that the primary meanings play a dominant role. Available as an online supplemental material, the European Parliament Conference English Phrasal Verb Pedagogical List (The EP-CE PHaVE List) contains these most frequent 169 PVs, their major meanings, and example sentences extracted from the corpus.
