As a special existence in the Archaic Chinese Period, the Descriptive Structure has its own characteristic semantic feature, syntax feature and pragmatic feature. Various Descriptive Structures which have historical development and evolution relations to the Serial Verb Structures in the Archaic Chinese Period all have a semantic feature of “action-result”, and this semantic feature of “action-result” can be realized through a variety of the Descriptive Structures with different combination forms. The Descriptive Structures with different combination forms express the semantic feature of “action-result”, at the same time form the pragmatic feature of “structure center-expression center” between structural cores V₁ and V₂. The semantic feature, the syntax feature and the pragmatic feature of the Descriptive Structure meet the semantic requirement, the syntax requirement and the pragmatic requirement of the Serial Verb Structure. There is a historical development and evolution relations between the Descriptive Structure and the Serial Verb Structure.
