Abstract:
Three synonymic constructions“ lian A dai B”,“you A you B” and“ yibian A yibian B” are quitedifferent in syntax,semantics and pragmatics. In syntax,except for the differences in syllabic symmetry as wellas in A and B’s grammatical unit,these three constructions tend to show a ladder-like distribution concerningthe admission of verbal,adjective,and nominal elements,which directly cause their distinctions in syntacticalfunction and structural meaning. In semantics,the former two are inclined to accept A and B closely connectedin concept,while the latter one is the opposite. The internal elements in the three constructions are all related toeach other in coordinated and sequential manners logically,but they have their own features too. In pragmatics,“lian A dai B” and“ you A you B” mostly show the fusion of objectivity and subjectivity,while“ yibian Ayibian B” can only do objective description. Besides,their information foci are different:the focus of“ lian Adai B” is on A;that of“ yibian A yibian B” is on B;and“ you A you B” is on the new meaning constituted byA and B.
