摘要
石毓智的语法近作《语法化的动因与机制》中有"上古汉语没有量词,数词则都是直接位于动词和名词之前"、少数后置的数词定语"多用于列举几种事物的特殊情况"等语。说上古汉语的数词修饰语都在动词谓语之前,是无可厚非的;但说上古汉语的数词定语都在名词中心语之前、后置的数词定语因多为表"列举"的修辞现象而"特殊",则误解和否认了上古汉语的语法事实。这个误说的成因,或为没有深入调查上古汉语的语料,或为忽略了近年来的相关研究成果,或二者兼而有之。
Shi Yuzhi holds the view that the number attributives must be placed before the center-word in ancient Chinese in his recent work. This kind of view is contrary to the facts of ancient Chinese and Shi Yuzhi neglects the relating achievements in recent years. In recent 20 years, Su Baorong and Meng Pengsheng successively wrote the papers and proved that there are indeed some attributives can be placed after the center-word, and deduce the Chinese attributives system including the number attributives has experienced the course that the attributives moved from after the center-word to before the center-word.
