谈几个固有词语的时尚用法

Fashionable Usage of Several Old Words

固有词语的时尚用法是语言发展变化中一种值得注意的现象。词语的色彩意义对词语的用法起一定的决定作用。"遭遇"一般用于贬义,近来,它的非贬义用法、褒义用法在报刊、书名中屡有出现。而"感冒""自我感觉良好"的时尚用法也突破了词语本身感情色彩的限制,既有贬义用法,也有褒义用法,即"褒贬同形"。

Great importance should be attached to the fashionable usage of old words.The colourful meaning of words determines the usage of words in a certain sense.The word 'encounter' is often used in a derogatory sense.Recently the new nonderogatory or commendatory usage has appeared in the press and book titles time and again.And the fashionable usage of the words 'catch cold' and 'self-feeling-well' has broken through the restraint of emotional colouring.They are both commendatory and derogatory.
