Nominal Structure in ＂Li^4 Zhi^1 Ji^4＂ 荔枝記(Wanli萬曆Edition)

荔鏡記（Li^4 Jing^4 Ji^4）乃是閩南語最早的戲曲口語文本。本文採用荔枝記Li^4 Zhi^1 Ji^4（萬曆版本）語料庫的語料，探討名詞以及指示詞組（DPs）的結構。漢語指示詞組內部的功能詞豐富，包括：指示詞（DEM）、數詞（Num）、量詞（CL），名詞組也可以是光桿名詞（NP）。首先，我們根據功能詞的有無歸納了三類共存組合，分別為：（a）X1類（[+DEM][+CL]）（b）X2類（[+DEM][-CL]），（c）Y類（[-DEM]）來作量化分析。我們也發現指示詞組的某些與現代漢語不同的特殊格式，例如：「指示詞＋名詞」以及「數詞＋名詞」都是出現在荔枝記的格式，而在可能的格式當中，也顯示與漢語不盡相同的結構分析。

This paper explores possible structures of determiner phrases (DPs) using the corpus of Li^4 Zhi^1 Ji^4 荔枝記 (Wanli 萬曆 (1573-1620) Edition of Li^4 Jing^4 Ji^4 荔鏡記), the text of a colloquial Early Southern Min (1566 AD) play. First, the available structures for nominal expressions involving Demonstratives (DEM) tsi^1 只, Numerals (Num) chit^4 一, Classifiers (CL) ge^5 个/個, and Nominal Phrases (NP) are of the three types: Type X1 ([+DEM][+CL]), Type X2 ([+DEM][-CL]), and Type Y ([-DEM]). Second, some of the possible structures, e.g. ＂DEM+NP＂ and ＂Num+NP＂, which do not exist in Mandarin and Southern Min, suggest different structural analyses for DPs in Early Southern Min.
