本文主要探討漢語中把字句的結構及其語意。首先，本文討論「把」字在結構上的位置，並主張把字句在語意上如及物性及有界性等方面不同於一般的及物句。於此，本文認為把字句不管在結構或這在語意方面都義務要求完整的事件結構（Event structure）。該事件結構在結構上包涵完整的起始／起因結構（initial／causer），過程結構（process）及結果結構（resultative）。同時，結果結構在語意上亦反映把字句的語意特徵－有界性（boundedness）：包含了時間的界限,空間的界限及量的界限。

This paper focuses on the syntax and semantics of ba-construction in Mandarin Chinese. Firstly I discuss the structural position of ba and then argue that ba-construction differs from a general transitive construction in several ways: transitivity, implied readings and boundedness. In addition, I discuss the meaning of ba-construction and show that ba-construction requires a complete event structure which can be suitably captured by assuming Event Structure Syntax proposed by Ramchand (2008). The complete event (the requirement of a bounded event) can be introduced by a resultative clause which semantically donates a boundary, either temporally, spatially or by quantity.
