摘　　要：汉语作为话题优先型语言,容易产生话题标记,话题标记的来源比较多样。本文补充讨论了文献中没有提到的汉语话题标记的几种来源。通过汉语历史文献中的例证,本文指出一些处所标记、指示代词和名词化标记可以演变为话题标记。文章对这些演变的具体过程做了描写,对其中的动因和机制做了分析。Topic markers are relatively easy to emerge in Chinese,which is a topic-prominent language.In this paper,we discuss several historical sources of topic markers in Chinese that have not been mentioned in the literature.We illustrate that locative markers,demonstrative pronouns and nominalization markers can evolve into topic markers in the history of Chinese language.The processes of these changes are described,and the motivations as well as the mechanisms involved are analyzed.
