现代汉语中“看在X的面上”是一种既常用又能产的构式,可以表达“请求”“宽恕”两种看似矛盾而又实质相通的构式义。构式义的生成机制源于熟人社会背景下的语用推理,而构式的使用则是一种基于面子维护的话语策略。从历史上看,这种构式在五代时期开始出现,并最终在明清时期完成固化历程。 In modern Chinese, “looking at the face of X” is a common and productive construct that can express two seemingly contradictory but substantive constructions of “request” and “forgiveness.” . The generative mechanism of conformational justice originates from the pragmatic reasoning in the social context of acquaintances, while the use of conformation is a discourse strategy based on face-saving. Historically, this structure began to appear in the Five Dynasties period, and finally cured in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
