theoretical analysis%linguistic decategorization
Liu Zhengguang made a conclusion about features of linguistic decategorization on the semantic, morphonological, textual and categorial attributes levels. However, these features were too specific to reflect the holistic characteristics of linguistic decategorization. Taking a holistic point of view, this paper will make a tentative study to summarize the features of linguistic de?categorization. This paper maintains that 1) linguistic decategorization is a dynamic and gradual process;2) linguistic decategoriza?tion is uneven at multilevel;3) linguistic decategorization is context-dependent and unpredictable.
