从量词“侪”的产生看语言接触的连锁反应
On contact-induced sequential effect: A case study of Chinese classifier Chai

摘 要： 接触引发的语言演变具有复杂性和连续性，汉语复数后缀“们”的产生与发展以及量词“侪”的出现，正是北方阿尔泰语言与汉语接触所产生的连续性结果。汉语受阿尔泰语言的影响，通过语法复制产生复数后缀“们”，而“们”的出现与发展冲击了“侪”在汉语系统中的地位，促使“侪”在宋元以后产生量词用法。此外，“侪”的其他特殊用法可能也与阿尔泰语言的影响有关。
Abstract: Contact-induced language change is complicated and sequential, and the emergence of Chinese plural suffix Men and classifier “Chai (侪)” are exactly a succession of results of language contact between Chinese and Altai languages. Under the influence of Altai languages “Men (们)” was generated through grammatical replication in Chinese and then exerted great influence on “Chai(侪)”. As a result, the usage of classifier “Chai(侪)” came into being. Moreover, another special usage of “Chai(侪)” may also have something to do with Altai languages
