本報告之目的乃在於,研究、考察文章中「V-tearu」句子之結構與機能。在本報告之中,依句子的謂語裏是否含帶有Modality與否,將句子分類成第一類型與第二類型。這兩種類型於句子結構上的差異乃是在於:相對於第一類型是由Proposition的一個成分(要素)與一個成分(要素)的結合所構成,第二類型則是由Modality的結合所構成。而機能方面的差異則是在於:第一類型是在於場所的描寫,第二類型則是在於附加說明與解釋,或是敘述推測的判断。此外,透過本稿針對與「V-tearu」句子的關係,也發現到相對於第一類型與表存在或表示結果的句子之性質有密切關係,第二類型和「V-tearu」句子之性質並無直接的關連。
The purpose of this paper was to examine the structures and functions of a ”V-tearu” sentence in a discourse. In this paper, the sentences were categorized into Type Ⅰ and Type Ⅱ based on whether the predicative of a sentence includes modality or not. The differences of sentence structures in these two types are as follows: Type Ⅰ sentences were constructed by a component of a proposition and another component. On the other hand, Type Ⅱ sentences were constructed by the combination of modality. In addition, there were differences in sentence functions. Type Ⅰ sentences were used for the description of space. However, Type Ⅱ sentences were used for the addition of explanation/comment or the depiction of speculation judgment. Furthermore, the correlation between the structure of the discourse and ”V-tearu” sentences were examined.
