- Unambiguous distinction between "(clause) predicate 謂語" and "predicative (expression) 表語", both nouns.
Highlights & Notes
-
A predicative expression (or just predicative) is part of a clause predicate. 表語是一個子句中謂語的一部分。
-
The most frequently acknowledged types of predicative expressions are predicative adjectives (also predicate adjectives) and predicative nominals (also predicate nominals). 表語最常見的類型是表語形容詞（又稱謂語性形容詞）和表語名詞（又稱謂語性名詞）。
-
The main trait of all predicative expressions is that they serve to express a property that is assigned to a "subject", whereby this subject is usually the clause subject, but at times it can be the clause object.[2|2] 所有表語的主要特徵是它們用於表達其賦給「主體」的屬性，而該主體通常是子句的主語，但有時也可以是子句的賓語。
-
A primary distinction is drawn between predicative (also predicate) and attributive expressions. 表語和定語之間有明顯區別。
-
Further, predicative expressions are typically not clause arguments, and they are also typically not clause adjuncts. There is hence a three-way distinction between predicative expressions, arguments, and adjuncts. 此外，表語通常不是子句的論元，並且通常也不是子句的修飾語。 因此，表語、論元和修飾語互不相同。
-
The terms predicative expression on the one hand, and subject complement and object complement on the other hand overlap in meaning to a large extent. 表語的涵義，以及主語補足語和賓語補足語二者的涵義，在很大程度上是重疊的。
-
The formulations "over the subject" and "over the object" indicate that the predicative expression is expressing a property that is assigned to the subject or to the object. [4|4] 「描述主語」、「描述賓語」是指表語表達某種賦予主語或賓語的屬性。
The idea was ridiculous. 這想法很荒唐。–形容詞作表語描述主語
He seems nice. 他看起來不錯。–形容詞作表語描述主語
Bob is a postman. 鮑勃是一名郵遞員。–名詞短語作表語描述主語
They were all happy campers. 他們都是開心的露營者。–名詞短語作表語描述主語
That shrimp dish made him sick. 那碟蝦讓他生病了。–形容詞作表語描述賓語
We painted the door white. 我們把門刷成了白色。–形容詞作表語描述賓語
They elected him president. 他們將他選舉為主席。–名詞作表語描述賓語
They called Jill a thief. 他們稱吉兒是一個小偷。–名詞短語作表語描述賓語
- For example, the predicative expression a thief in the last sentence serves to assign to Jill the property of being a thief. 例如，最後一句中的「a thief（一個小偷）」是賦予「Jill（吉爾）」作為「一名小偷」的屬性。
- 儘管表語最常由形容詞或名詞性成分充當，但大多數詞類都可作表語。
- Predicative nominals over subjects are also called predicate nominatives, a term borrowed from Latin grammars and indicating the morphological case that such expressions bear (in Latin).
