Abstract
Ambiguity is one of the difficult problems in linguistics. It is one of the keys in nature language understanding and machine translation. “v + v” is one structure which may have ambiguity after instantiation. According to Potential Ambiguity Theory, this paper analyzes “v + v” phrase by integrating syntactic, semantic and pragmatic processing. It makes a comprehensive study of Chinese “v + v” structure, aiming at finding out the reason why ambiguity exists and searching out some disambiguity rules.
