摘要:: “一A一B”构式既可以表达主观大量又可以表达主观小量，也就是说话人对现实数量偏离预期数量程度的主观判断。“一A一B”的主观量表达受认知视角、象似性认知原则、“一A”“一B”间语义对比关系及句法结构的制约。对“一A一B” 构式的主观量进行认知解读有助于拓展该构式的研究范围，并对话语的主观性有更深入的理解。

Abstract:: Language expresses not only objective propositions but also subjective evaluation and attitude of the speaker. The Chinese construction “yi A yi B” can be used to express large degree subjective quantity and small degree subjective quantity, that is, a speaker’s subjective evaluation of the deviation of the actual quantity from the expected one. Analysis from the perspective of cognitive grammar and construction theory shows that the degree of subjective quantity is determined by factors including different cognitive perspectives, the cognitive base of iconicity, the semantic contrastiveness between “yi A” and “yi B” and syntax structure of “yi A” and “yi B”.
