项目摘要

The results of this project can be divided into two categories : database and publications.The former includes 1)"frog stories" narrated by 23 native speakers of Japanese, and 2)A Bibliography of Linguistic Expressions for Motion Events. This bibliography was first published as 2002b (see below), and it has been updated and is now available at http://www.lit.kobe-u.ac.jp/yomatsum/motionbiblio.html.Publications include papers on 1)caused motion construction (2002a), 2)typology of motion events (2003a, b), and 3) visual motion (2004). My papers on Typology of motion events review previous typologies, their different interpretations and their problems, and propose an alternative in which languages are divided into different types depending on whether Path of motion is encoded in the head of VP (Head-framed languages) or not (Nonhead-framed languages). My paper on visual motion describes this phenomenon in Japanese in details. An integration of the findings in this paper and the typology of motion events is attempted in an unpublished paper presented at the 2004 Conference of the English linguistics Society of Japan. It is argued that languages tend to take a Nonhead-framed pattern in the following order. Motion <Caused Motion <Visual Motion. All of these works are partially based on the examination of corpus data (Cobuild Corpus and Mainichi-shinbun data).

该项目的成果可分为两类：数据库和出版物。前者包括1）由23位日语母语人士讲述的“青蛙故事”，2）动作事件语言表达参考书目。该参考书目首次出版为 2002b（见下文），现已更新，现可在 http://www.lit.kobe-u.ac.jp/yomatsum/motionbiblio.html 上获取。出版物包括关于 1) 的论文引起的运动构造（2002a），2）运动事件的类型学（2003a，b）和3）视觉运动（2004）。我关于运动事件类型学的论文回顾了以前的类型学、它们的不同解释和问题，并提出了一种替代方案，根据运动路径是否编码在 VP（头框架语言）的头部或不是（非中心框架语言）。我关于视觉运动的论文用日语详细描述了这种现象。在 2004 年日本英语语言学会会议上发表的一篇未发表的论文中，尝试将本文的研究结果与运动事件的类型学相结合。有人认为，语言倾向于按以下顺序采用非中心框架模式。运动<引起的运动<视觉运动。所有这些工作部分基于语料库数据（Cobuild Corpus 和每日新闻数据）的检查。
