• 摘要： 本文旨在梳理近代以来量词研究的动向。汉语量词经历了较长的命名过程才被普遍接受并列入汉语语法词类；英语中表量词的功能和性质类似汉语量词，但尚未统一命名，也未进入英语语法词类。大多数英语量词研究或者英汉量词对比研究是在语言层面对比其异同，从认知角度对比汉英量词的研究为数不多，尤其借助语料库开展量词的认知对比研究显得尤为重要。此外，专门从事量词历时研究的学者人数甚少，然而历时语言研究之于量词绝非可有可无，相反，许多量词研究的问题，其答案正蕴含在历时语言学之中。语言时刻在变，语言变 化是其本质属性，因此开展量词的历时研究是量词题中应有之义。
• This paper aims to introcuce the trend of classifier research in modern times. It took a long time for Chinese classifiers to be accepted and labelled as one of the Chinese grammatical catergories; The functions and properties of English classifiers are similar to those of Chinese classifiers, but they have not yet been named uniformly, nor have they entered into English grammatical catergory. Findings show that most of the studies on English classifiers or the contrastive study of English and Chinese classifiers compare their similarities and differences at the linguistic level. There are few studies on the contrast of Chinese and English classifiers from the perspective of cognition. It is of vital importance to carry out the corpus-based comparative study of quantifiers from the cognitive linguistics. In addition, there are few scholars who specialize in the diachronic study of classifiers. However, diachronic language study is not indispensable to classifiers. On the contrary, the answers to many research questions about classifiers are implicitly included in diachronic linguistics. Language is changing all the time, and language change is its essential attribute. Therefore, the diachronic study of classifiers is quite necessary.
