Abstract：During language evolution， monosyllabic prepositions and their adjacent antecedents may have been fused and solidified. There are a number of disyllabic words containing “yu (于)” (“guoyu”，“guanyu”， etc.) in modern Chinese， but there has not been such a detailed list of the members of “X (monosyllabic)＋Yu” provided possibly for a long time， which constrains an effective panoramic views of the origin and formation of such words. The study takes the electronic version of People’s Daily from 2000 to 2011 as the data source， and mines a candidate set of the “X (monosyllabic)＋Yu” with a certain frequency level on the basis of large-scale real texts. The E-Prime experimental platform is introduced to classify the lexicalization degree of the members of “X (monosyllabic)＋Yu” by word sense voting， thus the most comprehensive words list of “X (monosyllabic)＋Yu” is obtained so far， and the threshold range of public word sense is provided for the first time. The study also analyzed the factors influencing the word formation of “X (monosyllabic)＋Yu” from four aspects of the nature， semantics， syntax and frequency of the antecedents.
