ANALYSIS OF THE WORD “ZHI(之)” IN THE SENTENCE OF “A WEI ZHI(谓之)B”

Xue Feng

Abstract

The word “ZHI(之)” has many uses, but the use in the sentense of “A WEI ZHI (谓之)B” has ever been disputed. The writer thinks that when A is an initiative suject, the word “ZHI(之)” is an demonstrative pron, being as an indirect object; when A is a passive subject, the “ZHI(之)” is an auxiliary verb without meaning and its function is only adapting to the syllable behind the word “WEI(谓)”.
