The Analysis of Characteristic of Functions On Business English Nominalization_英语论文

摘要

商务英语名词化现象是英语语言的一个显著特点,已引起国内外学者的普遍关注。名词化作为英语语义和语法之间关系的转化方式,在语篇中大量存在,是英语文体重要的特征之一。恰当地应用名词化能够使商务语篇简洁,信息含量大,但过多地使用会造成句子抽象乏味,甚至形成累赘,带来负面作用。本文探讨了商务英语名词化的定义,并系统总结了国内外学派及学者对名词化的研究,在前人研究的基础上提出商务英语名词化现象的文体功能,即:简洁性、正式性。并且探究了商务英语名词化及其构建的意义，从三个层面即经验意义，语篇意义和人际意义上探讨。这篇论文只是运用功能语法理论进行语体研究的一个初步尝试。
