根据系统功能语言学的观点,语言至少包括三个层次,即语义层、词汇语法层和音系层。并且各个层次之间存在着“体现”关系。韩礼德将词汇语法和语义之间的体现关系分为一致关系(congruent)和非一致关系(incongruent)。在一致关系中,过程由动词词组体现,参与者由名词词组体现,特性由形容词词组体现。而在非一致关系中,过程由名词词组或形容词词组体现。名词化就是将过程和特性以名词形式体现。名词化具有双重语义特征,即:动词名词化可体现参与者和过程两种语义,而形容词名词化可体现参与者和属性两种语义。本文只论述名词化对语言的修饰功能。
According to the viewpoint of systemic functional linguistics, the language includes at least three levels, namely the semantic layer, lexical grammar layer and phonological layer. And there are “embodying” relationships between levels. Halliday classifies the relationship between lexical grammar and semantics as congruent and incongruent. In a consistent relationship, the process is represented by verb phrases, participants are represented by noun phrases, and characteristics are represented by adjective phrases. In a non-uniform relationship, the process is represented by noun phrases or adjective phrases. Nominalization is the process and the characteristics of nouns. Nominalization has double semantic features, that is, nominalization of verbs can reflect both semantics of participants and process, while nominalization of adjectives can reflect both semantics of participants and attributes. This article only discusses the function of nominalization on language modification.
