摘　　要： 语言学界有关兼类问题的研究可谓术语林立、观点纷争。现代英语中是否存在兼类现象,现代英语实际兼类现状如何,学者们得出的结论迥异。仅有的关于英语兼类现状的调查要么不够具体,要么研究方法存在缺陷,对英语兼类类型和数量更是缺乏准确深入的调查。而不少汉语界学者对现代英语兼类现状的误解已经对现代汉语兼类问题的研究带来了不良影响。从词典学、语言类型学、认知语言学等视角,以《牛津高阶英语词典》(第7版)为例,对现代英语兼类现状进行调查。研究表明,兼类现象是分析语的共性特征;现代英语不仅兼类现象普遍,而且类型众多;在汉语词类研究中,遵循所谓兼类要少的"简略原则"是毫无根据的。 There are different terms for and conflicting opinions on multiple class membership among linguists. As a resuh, different conclusions are drawn about the existence and quantity of multiple class membership in Modern Eng- lish. Previous surveys either lack details or have deficiencies in methodology, with no accurate details of the types or numbers of multi-category words in Modem English. Consequently, the misunderstanding of multiple class member- ship in Modern English has brought about adverse effects on the studies of word classes in Modern Chinese. Based on Oxford Advanced Learner＇ s English Dictionary （7th ed. ）, this study is intended to investigate the current status of multiple class membership in Modern English from the perspectives of lexicography, language typology and cognitive linguistics. It is found that multiple class membership is characteristic of analytic languages, that Modern English has a large number and variety of multi-category words, and that in the studies of Chinese word classes it is unjustified to follow the so-called ＂principle of parsimony＂ which argues for fewest possible multi-category words.
