Negation in Chinese: A Corpus-based Study
汉语中的否定：基于语料库的研究
Richard Xiao 肖忠华; Tony McEnery

Abstract 摘要
This article explores negation in Chinese on the basis of spoken and written corpora of Mandarin Chinese. The use of corpus data not only reveals central tendencies in language based on quantitative data, it also provides typical examples attested in authentic contexts. In this study we will first introduce the two major negators bu and mei (meiyou) and discuss their semantic and genre distinctions. Following this is an exploration of the interaction between negation and aspect marking. We will then move on to discuss the scope and focus of negation, transferred negation, and finally double negation and redundant negation.

本文在分析口语和书面语料的基础上探讨汉语中的否定。语料库不仅能反映出基于定量数据的语言中心趋势，而且还提供真实语境中的典型例证。文章首先讨论了汉语中的两种主要否定形式，“不”和“没（没有）”，及其在语义和语体等方面的差异，并在此基础上探讨了否定与体标记之间的相互作用、否定范围与否定焦点、转移否定，以及双重否定和冗余否定。
