Abstract:
The syntactic construction of“N+ N” in ancient Chinese is the one that is formed by a subject and a predicate which the same noun plays the part in, for example, Junjun Chenchen. The noun in the syntactic construction of“N+ N” in Pre-Qin Chinese is only monosyllabic. The syntactic construction of “ N+ N” is very agglutinative. There are often two syntactic constructions of“N+ N” which stands side by side.It can not become a sentence by itself.It may play the part in a subject or a subordinate clause. After Han Dynasty, the agglutination of the syntactic construction of“ N+ N” is much weakened. Some new syntactic functions come into being, for example, a predicate, an attribute and a complement, etc. According to cognitive linguistics, all of the nouns which can get into the syntactic construction of“N+ N” have a strong cultural meaning which is added. And the strong cultural meanings which are added are the most essential semantic basis that the syntactic construction of“N+ N” can hold water.
