초록

This study deals with the adjectival resultative construction interpreted as ‘X₁CAUSE [Y₂BECOME Z₃]’. In Spanish, it is impossible to construct this construction with adjectival secondary predicate unlike other languages,especially English. The resultatives are secondary predicates indicating the result of action described by the primary predicate. Contrary to the depictives,the resultative predicate maintains lexically a close relationship with the main verb. Therefore, through the structural approach of adjunct predication we don’t have access to all the information contained in the resultative construction. That’s why it’s necessary to assume the lexical-syntactic derivation and to argue that the lexicon and the syntax are related directly. Based on lexical property of verbs, I argue the lexicalization of motion event across different kinds of languages discussed in Talmy(1985; 2000) and Talmy’s typological distinction between verb-framed and satellite-framed languages for verb roots with respect to the expression of motion events. Following Talmy(1985; 2000)and Tenny(2000), I propose that the verb-framed languages, such as Spanish,express core predicate on the verb. And I claim that the resultative secondary predicates of pseudo-resultative construction modify and emphasize the path element conflated on the verb.

Abstract

This study deals with the adjectival resultative construction interpreted as ‘X₁CAUSE [Y₂BECOME Z₃]’. In Spanish, it is impossible to construct this construction with adjectival secondary predicate unlike other languages,especially English. The resultatives are secondary predicates indicating the result of action described by the primary predicate. Contrary to the depictives,the resultative predicate maintains lexically a close relationship with the main verb. Therefore, through the structural approach of adjunct predication we don’t have access to all the information contained in the resultative construction. That’s why it’s necessary to assume the lexical-syntactic derivation and to argue that the lexicon and the syntax are related directly. Based on lexical property of verbs, I argue the lexicalization of motion event across different kinds of languages discussed in Talmy(1985; 2000) and Talmy’s typological distinction between verb-framed and satellite-framed languages for verb roots with respect to the expression of motion events. Following Talmy(1985; 2000)and Tenny(2000), I propose that the verb-framed languages, such as Spanish,express core predicate on the verb. And I claim that the resultative secondary predicates of pseudo-resultative construction modify and emphasize the path element conflated on the verb.
