Being a canonical opposite pairing means it has a higher frequency in collocation and a wider distribution in syntactic frames. Based on Chinese GigaWord Corpus, this study questions the previous findings from English and other languages that “canonicity is a gradable property” (Jones et al. 2012), and explores, in Chinese, whether for each opposite conceptual pair there is a canonical pairing, and, the characteristics of opposite parings.
