On the Nature of Zero-Meaning Sinograms: Typology and Thematic Classification

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In pleremic writing systems, which also include contemporary Chinese, pronunciation and meaning are associated with a single grapheme. Every system however contains exceptions that disrupt its integrity. “Zero-meaning sinograms” are such an existing paradox within their own system. Although they are graphemes that represent a syllable, they do not constitute an independent meaningful unit. This paper aims to shed light on the problematic perception of zero-meaning sinograms. Based on corpus-driven analysis, this paper intends to illustrate distinctive features of zero-meaning sinograms in relation to their ability to derive new lexemes and consequently, to their compatibility with other sinograms. The second purpose of this study is to suggest a classification system that reflects the distribution of zero-meaning sinograms within standard contemporary lexicon, and thus provide a comprehensive view on this widely overlooked topic.
