V-R compounding is a rich source of new verbs in Mandarin Chinese. It presents a puzzle all along in the interpretation and construction of subcategorization frames for lacking of a rule-governed process to deal with how the function of a V-R compound is related to the functions of its constituents. This work aims at investigating the restrictions on stem collocation and the construction of subcategorization frames of V-R compounds in terms of lexicalized semantic and grammatical information of the verbs which are juxtaposed to form the compounds. |
