摘　　要：介词"关于"来源于先秦时期的动介跨层结构"关+于",该形式是典型的句法—语音的错配现象,早在隋唐五代时期就已词汇化为表关涉义介词。"关于"词汇化的动因主要有:动词"关"的去范畴化及其功能悬空,介词"于"的去范畴化及其附缀化,汉语双音化韵律促动。在介词"关于"的来源问题上,文章不支持它来源于外语,无论是英语抑或是日语。介词"关于"产生以后直至"五四"之前这段历史时期使用频率不高的原因,主要与汉语作为话题优先型语言在古今汉语中的不同表现密切相关。The preposition guanyu （关于） is derived from the cross-layered structure form guan verb（关）＋yu prep（于）. This form is the typical mismatch in syntax and prosodic, and it has lexicalized a preposition as early as in the Sui, Tang and the Five Dynasties. About the origin of the preposition guanyu, the study of this article does not support the view that guanyu comes from a foreign language, either English or Japanese. The main motivation of the lexicalization of guanyu are as follow： decategorization and function loss of Verb guan, decategorization and cliticization of preposition yu, Chinese disyllable prosodic peculiarity. As for the use frequency of guanyu is not high before the May 4th era, the most likely reason is that topic-prominence in Chinese is different embodiment in the ancient and modern Chinese.
