This article mainly examines the syntactic,semantic and pragmatic usage of the modern Chinese conjunction "feidan"(非但)from the synchronic level,and distinguishes the similarities and differences between "feidan"(非但)and "budan"(不但).The full text consists of six chapters:The first chapter is the introduction.It points out that the research object of this article is the conjunction "Feidan"(非但),introduces the origin of the word "Feidan"(非但),briefly reviews the research on progressive conjunctions and the current status of the research on the conjunction "Feidan"(非但),and the theoretical methods and sources of corpus are explained.The second chapter mainly examines the syntactic characteristics of the conjunction"Feidan"(非但).The article mainly analyzes the syntactic position,the connected language units,the co-occurrence components and the tendency of sentence types.In the syntactic position,"Feidan"(非但)can be used for single sentence,compound sentence or sentence group.In terms of grammatical function,"Feidan"(非但)can connect language units such as words,phrases,and sentences.In terms of co-occurrence components,"Feidan"(非但)often co-occurs with the adverb "an",the conjunction "and"(而且)or the adjective "opposite"(相反).In addition,"Feidan"(非但)can also co-occur with the related sentence pattern "lian……dou/ye"(连……都/也).In the use of sentence types,"feidan"(非但)often appears in declarative sentences,while the distribution of exclamation sentences and interrogative sentences is relatively small,and generally does not appear in imperative sentences.The third chapter mainly examines the semantic characteristics of the conjunction"Feidan"(非但).The article mainly analyzes the semantic types,the logical semantics of the terms before and after "feidan"(非但)sentences,and the semantic category.According to subjective and objective criteria,the semantic types of "feidan"(非但)can be divided into subjective progressive and objective progressive.From the perspective of the direction of progression,the semantic types can be divided into the same progressive and reverse progressive.The logical semantics of the preceding and following items in the progressive compound sentence of "feidan"(非但)can be divided into parallel progression,progressive progression,transitional progression,and causal progression.The semantic category of "Feidan"(非但)includes the category of degree,the category of quantity,and the category of scope.Chapter Four mainly examines the pragmatic characteristics of the conjunction"Feidan"(非但).The article mainly analyzes the pragmatic function and stylistic tendency.The pragmatic function of "feidan"(非但)includes subjective function,anti-expectation function,contrast emphasis function,and textual cohesion function.The frequency of the written style of "feidan"(非但)is much higher than that of the spoken style.The fifth chapter is the analysis of "Feidan"(非但)and "Budan"(不但).The article mainly examines the similarities and differences between the progressive conjunction"feidan"(非但)and "budan"(不但)from three aspects:syntax,semantics and pragmatics.This article compares and analyzes the syntactic features of the two from three aspects:syntactic position,syntactic structure and co-occurrence components.The syntactic position of "budan"(不但)is more flexible than that of "feidan"(非但).The syntactic structure of "budan(不但)mostly appears in the form of "budan+affirmative structure",while the syntactic structure of "feidan"(非但)mostly appears in the form of"feidan+negative structure".The co-occurring component of "Feidan"(非但)is dominated by modality adverbs,and the co-occurring component of "budan"(不但)is dominated by progressive conjunctions.Semantically,the two aspects are compared and analyzed in terms of semantic type and logical semantics.The semantic types of "Budan"(不但)are mostly in the same direction,while the semantic types of "feidan"(非但)are mostly in the reverse direction.The logical and semantic types of the pre-and post-items of "Budan"(不但)are more abundant than those of "Fidan"(非但),including five types of logical semantics,namely parallel progression,progressive progression,transitional progression,causal progression,and coherent progression.Pragmatically,the two aspects are compared and analyzed in terms of anti-expected pragmatic function and style distribution.The anti-expectation pragmatic function of "Feidan"(非但)is more prominent,and the style distribution of "budan"(不但)is slightly more formal than that of "feidan"(非但).Chapter 6 is the summary of the full text.
