内容简介
性范畴是如此富有争议，以致在所有的语法范畴中显得最令人困惑，又最富有魅力。本书收集了200多种语言中的变体，试图归纳出一种普遍的模式，同时也细致地分析了某些特定的语言，以便读者对其中的性范畴，能有深入和具体的理解。
性范畴的差别通常体现在性别上，但是也有一些语言系统通过其他的对立来表现，例如人类和非人类，有生和无生等。在句法上的表现也同样令人惊奇；除了动词和形容词有性的表现之外，还有数量词、附加词和副词也都在一致关系上表现出来。有些语言中，正是一致关系决定了性的数量。同时，这里的研究也触发了一些新的问题：如“杂糅”名词，可以采取两种或两种以上的一致形式。作者将这些形形色色的变异纳入普遍模式，并提示了它们在语言演变中所扮演的角色。
