臺灣閩南語之特殊被動及使動句型

Passives and Causatives in a Specific Taiwanese Construction

筆者從臺語語料庫中，觀察到「予……共」（hoo ... ka）句型在語法及語意上呈現出一些值得注意與研究的特性。「予」與「共」是多義功能詞，當這兩個字先後出現在同一個句中，形成「予……共」句型時，在語法與語意上產生多樣的互動。在此一句型的語法上，「予」字表達被動及使動的功能：而「共」字則在語意上以兩種方式提高句型的及物性：於被動句型中，重複受事主語；於使動句型中，加入結果補語。

The present study explores the syntactic and semantic properties of the construction featuring the hoo ... ka configuration. The two words, hoo and ka, can perform multiple functions, and their interactions have various interpretations. The study collected data from Taiwanese corpora and observed that the hoo ... ka sentences can express passives and causatives. The word hoo provides the passive and causative attributes, while the word ka contributes to the transitivity. The repetition of the object argument and the occurrence of the resultative complement are assumed to be mechanisms to facilitate the transitivity of the hoo ... ka sentences.
