An Errors Analysis of BA Construction of Chinese for Foreigners Based on Construction Grammar Theory
Wan Ri-shen · Journal of Heze University · 2013
According to the Construction Grammar( CG) Theory,the basic sentences of one language are instances of constructions——form-meaning correspondences that exist independently of particular verbs. That is,it is argued that constructions themselves carry meanings,independently of the words in the sentence. It breaks through the the traditionalsubject-predicate-objectandagent-verb-patientmethods. Based on this thoery, the Chinese BA construction can surly be considered as a kind of construction with independent meanings. This research tries to divide separate construction meanings and use sememe analysis for semantic configuration based on CG. We also analyze the features and characters of different category of errors from the learner interlanguage corpus to give explaination and make alteration on the cognitive perspective. We hope this research could provide some beneficial thinking for the teaching of BA construction.
