摘要
本文全面考察英汉全量限定词every和"每"的语义差异,进而探讨全称量化逻辑与自然语言表量成分之间的匹配度。文章提出:全称量化逻辑能较好地定义和描写every的语义;而"每"则具有语义多样性,其意义和功能包括全称量化、加合操作以及引入变量,因此单靠全称量化逻辑无法对之进行完整和准确的描写。"每"的多重语义促使我们从新的角度审视量化成分的语义和量化理论的构建,也说明直接套用量化逻辑来解析自然语言表量成分的意义是不可行的,逻辑研究不能替代自然语言意义的研究。
This paper investigates the semantic difference between English determiner every and Chinese determiner mei(每) and explores the compatibility between universal quantificational logic and natural language semantics. Universal quantification is the proper treatment of every, while mei(每)exhibits multiple interpretational possibilities, including universal quantification, sum-formation operation and introduction of variables, which cannot be formalized using quantificational logic. The semantics of mei(每) prompts researchers to view quantificational expressions and theories from a new perspective, and logic is different from natural language. Therefore, the research on the two is not exchangeable.
