Abstract 摘要
Taiwanese Southern Min abounds with verbal complexes. Among them, phasal complexes, resultative complexes, and directional complexes are alike in that their second component denotes some sort of result. Moreover, they behave similarly in that they can occur in V-hoo-V, V-e/be-V, and V-bo-V forms. Despite these similarities, they still differ from one another in several aspects, such as whether objects are allowed inside or after the verbal complex, whether infixing signals change of their basic meaning, etc. This paper examines their individual properties and proposes that these three types of verbal complex are all different from one another in their formation, which then explains the differences in their syntactic behavior. Directional complexes are syntactic phrases, resultative complexes are compounds derived in the syntax, and while some phasal complexes are also syntactically derived compounds, the others are compounds formed in the lexicon. This paper aims to argue that words (or compounds in this case) can be formed in the syntax as well as in the lexicon.

复合结构、以及趋向复合结构的第二成份皆表示结果。此外，他们皆可以V-hoo-V, V-e/be-V, V-bo-V 的形式出现。虽在这几方面相似，他们却也有其相异处。例如宾语是否可置于复合词之内或之后，又插入中缀后是否导致意思的改变，在这些方面他们大不相同。本篇论文探讨他们各自的特点，并提出他们三类皆经由不同的衍生方式形成，藉此来解释他们在句法行为上的差异。研究的结果显示，趋向复合结构为在句法层面生成的词组，结果复合结构则是在句法层面生成的复合词。至于时相复合结构则是部分在句法层面生成，部分在词库中衍生而来。本论文的目的在于提出词（复合词）除在词库中衍生之外，亦可在句法层面生成。
