从东汉至南北朝，汉译佛典四言格文体经历了一个逐渐定型的过程，其形成是时代骈体风尚、四言雅正观念、四言语音优势、译经者语言文化素养等多重因素共同作用的结果。这种特殊的文体结构一经形成便无形地制约着译经者的遣词造句，在表义明确的前提下，译经者往往采取增删字数等手段对文句进行调控，译经中不少表达形式的生成与这种调控密切相关。同时，为满足四言“二二”节奏对双音形式的需求，译经者还采取多种方式延长或简缩词语形式，以凑足四言。不可否认，由于译经者的这些努力，语言中形成了大量的双音新词语，客观上对汉语的双音化起到了一定的促进作用。

The Eastern Han Dynasty through the Six Dynasties（25-589） witnessed the gradual formation of the stylistic feature of four-character patterns in Buddhist scriptures in Chinese translation.The contributing factors include the popular parallel style of the times,the conception of the elegance and rightness of four-character patterns,the four-character pronunciation superiority,the linguistic and cultural accomplishment of individual translators,etc.This special stylistic pattern,once formed,would unconsciously influence the translators＇ wording and phrasing.In other words,without failure to express the meaning clearly,they would manipulate the linguistic structure by adding or omitting words in translation.For example,they did the manipulation in order to satisfy the disyllabic form required by a ″2 ＋ 2 rhythm pattern″ of four-character phrases or sentences.It is undeniable that many new disyllabic words and phrases thus formed promoted the disyllabization of the Chinese language objectively.
