From traditional grammar perspective, "Bi N Hai N"("比N还N ") is a kind of "illegal" paranormal combination. This combination for its irreplaceable use function, is being widely accepted. This paper puts "Bi N Hai N" defined as a construction, we will take the Construction grammar perspective to study it. This paper mainly divided into five parts content:Firstly, Components of "Bi N Hai N" analysis. This study is focus on the noun of this construction, N in different contexts ("title" context and "dialogue" context) shows different notable degree.The N is strength nouns commonly.Then, The last N will occur the linguistic decategorization.The decategorization of the last N mainly displays in four aspects:loss of nouns original form distribution characteristics and referential; meanings become more abstract and generalization, nouns be enhanced subjectivity; transferring of nouns function and the category.Thirdly, Overall investigation of "Bi N Hai N" construction. This construction expresses the analogy in the use. This construction is a kind of subjective expression, and polarity exaggerated tends to negative negative color. The construction meaning is unpredictable, we cannot know the construction meaning from its composition. Word meaning and construction meaning is not respective self-existent, but existing construction and the interactive relationships between terms.Fourthly, The generating mechanism of "Bi N Hai N" construction mainly has: the dynamic nature of the language system, the economical principle of the language, validity-based semantic compatibility, decategorization and delocalized function of the last N, irreplaceable special use effect and value.Lastly, "Bi N Hai N" construction and "Bi N Hai A"("比N还A") construction were studied comparatively. In the usage of "Hai" and "Geng", in "Bi N Hai N" construction, "Hai" and "Geng" will often be able to swap. In many cases, replacement of "Hai" and "Geng" in "Bi N Hai A" construction, its meaning and function undergone great change. From the Chinese learners'acquisition perspective, "Bi N Hai N" construction than "Bi N Hai A" construction in acquisition exist on a greater difficulty, therefore acquisition strategy choice is very important.We resurey "Bi N Hai N" from the Construction perspective.This study will help we know the feature and function of this construction from new perspective, thus advances the research of modern Chinese framework sentences, for some basic jobs of Chinese grammar ontology and Chinese application research.
