本論文中，

主要透過莫拉理論來探論AA、AAA、AABB、ABAB型式的重疊字形容詞。

莫拉理論充當工具來找出原有的音節重量和可能存在的重量在重疊字形容詞中。

本論文主張連音變調可能會產生音節重量，

因此假設連音變調會產生一莫拉的音節重量。

但是這連音變調的一莫拉不是真正的重量數值，指使一個假設的數值而已。

這個假設只是想證明連音變調真的會有音節重量的產生而已。

本論文的目的想要去證明連音變調會產生音節重量而改變不同型式重疊是形容詞的語意上

的語氣強度。

本論文是有一個合理的假設去證明音節重量由連音變調增加，但是連音變調假設的一莫拉

只是一個虛擬的數值，而不是一個精確何正確的數值。

關鍵字: 重疊式形容詞，莫拉理論，連音變調

In the thesis, it discusses AA, AAA, AABB, ABAB patterns of the

reduplicated adjectives through Mora theory mainly and Mora theory

as a tool find out the original weight or the product of other

possible existed weight.

The thesis argues the tone sandhi could produce the syllable weight

and hypothesize that the tone sandhi could produce a Mora. However,

the one Mora is not real value and the hypotheses only wants to

prove that the tone sandhi could really have the product of the

syllable weight.

The purpose of the thesis wants to prove that the tone sandhi could

produce the syllable weight to change the semantic intensity of the

different reduplicated adjectives.

However, the thesis solely has a reasonable hypothesis to prove the

syllable weight increases by the tone sandhi and it merely needs a

virtual Mora value, not exact one.


Key words: the reduplicated adjective, Mora theory, tone sandhi
