内容摘要 Abstract: Chinese word classes are prototype categories in nature. Ordinary people tend to group thewords, which share the family resemblances in distribution, into the same class. It is not feasible todivide the word classes by using the conjunctive and disjunctive relations between distributional fea-tures since we might not find a feature exclusively shared by all members of a class. There are typicalmembers and non-typical members in a certain word class. The typical members are the prototypes ofthe class and serve as the standards for the classification of the non-typical member. And the typicalmembers of the same class always share a bundle of distributive features, which could be taken as thebasis to divide and define word classes.
