Abstract 摘要
This article discusses the aspectual marker zhe in the historical texts of Chinese and Wu dialects. Zhe was an imperfective marker in the history of Chinese and was never used as a perfective marker. Historically, zhe called as perfective marker was actually still a phase complement of lexical compound, but not a grammatical perfective marker in the Song and Yuan dynasties. Whereas the aspectual marker zhe were imperfective and perfective markers and a complement marker of state in the historical texts of Wu dialects. The perfective developed from its imperfective; i.e., a phase complement into imperfective, then from imperfective into perfective. The article further proposes that the context from which the aspectual marker zhe was induced is an adverbial clause.

本文讨论在汉语史和吴方言史中有关动词后面体标记(aspectual marker)“着”的语法化问题。一般地,对于汉语史中体标记“着”的出现,人们认为是由状态补语虚化为非完成体(imperfective)(包括持 续和进行),由结果补语虚化为完成体(perfective)的结果。本文的硏究表明,此“着”在近代汉语中语法化而成为非完成体,人们通常所指的宋元时 期的“完成体”,其实只不过是含完成语义的词汇体(aktionsart),幷不是语法体(grammatical aspects)。而在吴方言史中,“着”的语法化过程,幷不是完成体和非完成体同时产生,而是先从动相补语发展到非完成体(表持续),再从非完成体发展 到完成体和状态补语标记的过程。以此为据,本文进而认为,体标记“着”的产生源于复句前一小句。
