Abstract 摘要
Adopting Talmy’s (1985, 1991, 2000) theoretical framework, this paper, aiming to give a finer-grained analysis of the verbs of hitting in Hakka, has the following claims. First, these verbs of hitting are classified as the third type of verbal pattern under Talmy’s (1985, 1991, 2000) categorization which involves Action + Goal + Implication of fulfillment of intention. Furthermore, the lexicalized implicatures associated with the verbs demonstrate an implicational cline, which ranges according to the force of hitting. Although defeasible, the lexicalized implicature as a part of the lexical content has strong influence on the inherent features of the adjuncts and the felicity of the following discourse.

本文采用 Talmy (1991, 2000) 之理论架构,针对客语「打」类动词提出更精细的分析,主要有以下三点主张:客语「打」类动词属于 Talmy 架构下第三类之动词形式;这些动词之词汇隐含语意,依打的力量大小形成一个等级;此外,词汇语意之隐含虽然可被语境解除,却强烈影响动词可接之补语或修饰语之成分及语境之适切性。
