A Study On Telescopic Form In Regulation Variety

Telescopic form is widely used in Regulation Variety, mainly in long sentence, and it’s common that a sentence contains several telescopic forms. This thesis is based on regulation corpus with 360,000 words, by implying methods of statistics, describing, analysis, induction,and comparing, etc., to observe the quantitative distribution and structure types of telescopic form used in laws, regulations, methods, and rules, and to analyze its syntactic and semantic characteristics.Telescopic form in Regulation Variety has three structure types: the conventional telescopic form, the congruent telescopic form, and the components-shared telescopic form. The conventional one is majorly used; the congruent telescopic form is mainly the jiont between telescopic form and serial verb construction, disposal construction, telescopic form; the components-shared one is divided into two types: sharing VP1+NP and sharing VP2.As to the structure components and syntactic function, the S of telescopic form in Regulation Variety could be a noun, a de phrase, a modifier-noun phrase, a nominal coordinate phrase, an appositive phrase, or a VO phrase; V1 is a single verb or a verbal coordinate phrase; N could be a third personal pronoun, a noun, a modifier-noun phrase, or a nominal coordinate phrase; V2 could be a bare-verb, a adverbial-verb phrase, a verbal coordinate phrase, a VO phrase, a serial verbal phrase or a telescopic phrase. Telescopic form has syntactic functions of forming a sentence independently, or in a sentence acting as the predicate, the attribute, the object, the subject, the direct component of de phrase or locative phrase, etc.Telescopic form in Regulation Variety conveys coherent, explicit, abundant semantics, the contents include: to provide rights and obligations, to summarize illegal and criminal behavior, to strictly indicate the legal procedure, to explain, enumerate, and classify complication situations,to indicate the guidelines of the country or unit, etc. The semantic types of V1 contains the“make …do” type, giving type, existence type, the “make…do” type takes 90%. By the degrees of “make…do” and semantic features, the “make…do” V1 could be divided into eleven sense categories, the most common of which are the forcing sense, the fostering sense and the“make…let” sense. S and N mainly generalize people, organizations, departments, or units; the action of V2 usually occurs after V1, meaning the consequence or purpose of V1.Telescopic form in Regulation Variety has been adapted to the communicative needs in regulation context, its structure, syntax, and semantics reflect the genre functions of regulations.
