There are many adverbs in English and Chinese, and the grammar community usually thinks that adverbs can be used to modify verbs and adjectives, but in actual language use, it is found that there are many unconventional uses of "Adverb +Noun" in both English and Chinese, and this structure appears more and more frequently in Chinese, especially in colloquial language and online media. Many English grammar books deal with the phenomenon of "Adverb+Noun ", but none of them give an adequate explanation. In Chinese, since the emergence of the " Adverb+Noun " in the 80s of the last century, the previous studies on this phenomenon have achieved great results from the initial denial of the structure to the current multi-angle interpretation and research, but there are also problems such as single research object, few cross-linguistic comparative studies, and confusion of classification. Therefore, from the perspective of cognitive comparative linguistics, this project intends to scientifically classify and compare the “Adverb+Noun " in Chinese and English languages from the syntactic level and the lexical level. Secondly, at the synchronic level, the cognitive reference point theory (CRP) and the combination of "constructive coercion" and "lexical coercion" jointly explain the cognitive mechanism of the "Adverb of degree+ Noun" type that needs to be studied after classification. Thirdly, at the diachronic level, this paper explores the development process of "Adverb of degree +Noun" in English and Chinese from grammatical construction to rhetorical construction and back to grammatical construction.
