초록

This study aims to analyze the diachronic change of phrasal verbs from particle­verb combinations in OE into verb­particle ones in PDE. In general particles in OE conformed to the underlying preverbal order, usually functioned as a secondary predicate, and kept lexical independence. The leveling and loss of inflections triggered the change of merger process from preverbal in OE into postverbal in PDE along with the grammaticalization of particles. Both word order reanalysis from SOV to SVO and the shift of case/Case system from inherent case realization into structural Case valuation also drove the change of phrasal verbs from particle­verb into verb­particle sequences. A corpus study shows differences in particle position between OE and Old Norse. So it is possible to infer from the data that the verb­particle order of Old Norse influenced the change of OE phrasal verbs from preverbal into postverbal. In PDE, resultant verb­particle combinations as a close verbal unit denote a compositional meaning as well as the particle meaning itself varies from transparent to opaque or further idiomatic

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the diachronic change of phrasal verbs from particle­verb combinations in OE into verb­particle ones in PDE. In general particles in OE conformed to the underlying preverbal order, usually functioned as a secondary predicate, and kept lexical independence. The leveling and loss of inflections triggered the change of merger process from preverbal in OE into postverbal in PDE along with the grammaticalization of particles. Both word order reanalysis from SOV to SVO and the shift of case/Case system from inherent case realization into structural Case valuation also drove the change of phrasal verbs from particle­verb into verb­particle sequences. A corpus study shows differences in particle position between OE and Old Norse. So it is possible to infer from the data that the verb­particle order of Old Norse influenced the change of OE phrasal verbs from preverbal into postverbal. In PDE, resultant verb­particle combinations as a close verbal unit denote a compositional meaning as well as the particle meaning itself varies from transparent to opaque or further idiomatic
