摘　　要：夸克等编著的A Comprehenisve Grammar of the English Language(1985)(下称《大全》),在[17.51]等章节中论述名词化结构(Nominalization)时,举了这样一个例证: [1]In the morning,a quarrel broke out over pay. [1a]The quarrel in the morning ruined their friendship. [1b]The quarrel over pay was the reason for his resignation.由此给出定义:“诸如[1b]中the quarrel over pay这样具备与句子结构系统对应的名同短语称之为名词化。”这一名词短语可理解为pay was the cause of the quarrel。并指出,这种名词短语的中心词在形态学上一般与一个动词或形容词相关,换言之,它是由一个动词或形容词派生的。有时。Nominalization of English verbs is more often than not seen inscience materials.It oversteps both time and tense.A long and complexsentence is made simpler but more compact in the inward structure.
