Zhenyu Zhang · Journal of Huaihua University · 2006
Distinct times and imbalance of word-building characterize the adverbial suffixes in Du Fu's poems.The method of additive word-building is an important means of polysyllablization of adverbs in Du Fu's times,even in Middle Chinese and Old Mandarin.It has ever produced a great many additive adverbs,but only a few are preserved in modern Chinese.The research of additive adverbs in ancient Chinese should be strengthened.
