Abstract
This paper combines semantics and syntax to study the displaced separable form of verb+object separable words AB in modern Chinese in a comprehensive perspective, namely the “N’s+B+Ax” form. The paper discusses and analyzes the characteristics of such a form and selection and restriction within the quantitative verb+object separable words AB. It further analyzes the internal semantic features and rules of use for separable words falling into this category. The outcome of the study can serve as a reference for computer linguistics and foreign language teaching.
