摘要

近几十年来，人们对动作事件的兴趣日益浓厚，从而对举止的表达有了透彻的了解。然而，运动方式的各个维度的研究并不广泛。在这项研究中，我们专注于方式的一个特定维度:速度。通过分析爱沙尼亚语和应用语料库方法，我们表明速度是方式的核心维度之一。在爱沙尼亚语中，语速可以用动作动词和各种方式修饰语来表示。语速修饰语可以具有补偿(提供动词中没有的信息)、说明(提供额外的细节)和/或强化(加强动词所传达的意思)的功能。此外，与慢动作相比，快速动作在修饰语中的表达在语义区别和形态句法实现方面更为频繁和多样化。根据这些结果，我们提出了一个快过慢偏差的假设。

Manner of motion in Estonian

Recent decades have witnessed an increasing interest in motion events resulting in thorough knowledge about expressions of manner. However, the individual dimensions of manner of motion have been investigated less extensively. In this study, we focus on one particular dimension of manner: speed. By analysing the Estonian language and applying corpus methods, we show that speed is one of the core dimensions of manner. In Estonian, speed can be expressed with motion verbs and various types of manner modifiers. Speed modifiers can have a function of compensation (providing information that is not present in the verb), specification (providing additional details), and/or intensification (strengthening the meaning conveyed by the verb). Moreover, compared to slow motion, the expression of fast motion in modifiers is more frequent and more diverse in terms of semantic distinctions and morphosyntactic realisations. Drawing on these results, we frame a hypothesis of the fast-over-slow bias.

期刊介绍： Studies in Language provides a forum for the discussion of issues in contemporary linguistics from discourse-pragmatic, functional, and typological perspectives. Areas of central concern are: discourse grammar; syntactic, morphological and semantic universals; pragmatics; grammaticalization and grammaticalization theory; and the description of problems in individual languages from a discourse-pragmatic, functional, and typological perspective. Special emphasis is placed on works which contribute to the development of discourse-pragmatic, functional, and typological theory and which explore the application of empirical methodology to the analysis of grammar.
