Positive and negative adjectives are a subcategory of adjectives. Through the collection and analysis of real corpus, when positive and negative adjectives are combined with related grammatical structures, they are not only combined with positive or negative adjectives as in the existing theories. So it is very necessary to conduct a more in-depth study on positive and negative adjectives and update related concepts.
The thesis raises questions by analyzing the existing grammatical structure and the combination of positive and negative adjectives through the collection and analysis of the corpus in the corpus. Then, based on Shi Yuzhi, Huang Guoying (1993), Shi Yuzhi (2017) on the classification of positive and negative adjectives, combined with the subjectivity theory of cognitive linguistics, The three types of positive and negative adjectives are described in more detail and imagery.
Through this detailed and concrete description, looking back at the current combination of grammatical structure and positive and negative adjectives, we can see: First, the previous classification of positive and negative adjectives was based on the semantic features of [+quantity]. Such a classification rule is not scientific. Second, the division of positive and negative adjectives is based on people"s subjective understanding. This subjective understanding is also the reason for the contradiction between the positive and negative adjectives and the existing grammatical structure combined with related theories. Third, when the unique characteristics of the word itself in the process of change coincide with the content of the grammar, it will break through the original requirement of the grammar for positive and negative directions.
