ABSTRACT

As a philosophical and cognitive concept, event is a secondary category derived from the thing and the action, and has the fused features of time and space, dynamic and static. For most languages, the mapping from the pragmatic reference category and the semantic event category to the grammatical noun form is a marked one. Comparing English and Chinese, during the connective process from the event sentence to pure event noun, English has rich forms of nominalization with slightly difference approaching to event noun, which cannot be found in Chinese. So how the event category is mapped in Chinese nouns should be paid more attention to.
