The adverbs such as "Ke?Lao?Tong?Xie?Guai?Zhen?Duo" in the Luohe dialect have more common features and their own characteristics.This article will make them adverbs of the "Tong" type.This paper discribes these adverbs from the syntactic distribution ?the semantic features and pragmatic functions and try to grasp them in a comprehensive way.It is found that these adverbs are adverbs of high degree of subjectivity,and they have a clear expression of moodility.This paper also explains the causes of these phenomena from the aspects of the universal rules of language and the specialities within the language system of Luohe dialect.The research in this paper explains the reasons on the basis of the description.It shows that the lack of a functional expression in the language system and the limited use of it will be compensated by another expression.There is a phenomenon that one language unit has two functions at once in Luohe dialect.The emergence of the phenomenon is to make up for the lack and limitation of the other forms of moodilities' expresion in the Luohe dialect.The dissertation is divided into six chapters:The first chapter is Introduction.Because there is very little research on "degree" and "moodility" in the Luohe dialect,this chapter mainly sorts out related research about other dialect areas in Henan and Putonghua.We summarize the results of previous research to clarify the purpose,range,and method of this study.The second chapter describes the grammatical characteristics of the "Tong" from three dimensions:the distribution of "Tong" adverbs in different sentence types,different categories and differernt patterns.There is found that in addition to having common syntactic features,these adverbs still have some personalities that only certain adverbs have.The third chapter,Through questionnaire survey and comparative analysis,it shows the "Tong" adverbs in the Luhe dialect express "degree" and "moodility" at the same time.This chapter describes the characteristics of the degree expression and the characteristics of the moodility expression.The fourth Chapter Analysis the frequently-used context and pragmatic featuresof "Tong" adverbs in verbal communication in Luhe dialect,and explain that the "Tong" adverbs are similar in semantics,but when they are used in speech,different verbs have different functions.The fifth Chapter analysis the reasons for the phenomenon that one verb expresses "degree" and "moodility" at the same time from the perspective of the general rules of language and the particularity of the Luohe dialect system.It explains the There are close links between this phenomenon and subjectivity of verbal communication,and it is also closely related with the lack and limitation of the other forms of moodilities' expresion in the Luohe dialect.Chapter six is Conclusion which Summarizes the main content and deficiencies of the article,and in this chapter we synthesize the previous scholars' related research.It shows that although the adverbs of the "Tong" class have the meanning of “degree”and “moodility”,for the convenience of the study,it is not appropriate to set up a separate category.The "Tong" class adverbs are closer to the degree adverbs in the syntactic distribution,and have the function of expressing the subjectivity of the speaker,so this article classifies them as subjective degree adverbs.
