摘　　要：通用类别词是量词系统中泛用程度较高的一种,其所搭配的事物至少跨越两个生命度等级,分类的作用已不太明显。在彝缅语各语言及方言中,通用类别词的形式、数量及分布情况既相似也有不同之处,体现了彝缅语各语言、方言间的亲疏远近,也说明通用类别词多是后起的,其来源多样。General classifiers refer to classifiers with a high level of general use. They can be used to modify entity nouns that belong to at least two different categories on the animacy hierarchy,which indicates a reduction in their classification function. There are similarities as well as distinctions in the form, distribution and total number of general classifiers in the Yi-Burman languages and dialects, which demonstrates different genetic distances among the languages as well as the fact that general classifiers are mostly subsequent development with multiple origins.
