论俄汉时间认知方式与参照点的差异

A Contrastive Study of Conception of Time and Point of Reference in Russian and Chinese

时间认知方式有两种,在不同的语言中它们占据不同的主导位置。受时间认知方式的影响,俄汉语对行为时间的确定可能采用不同的参照点,即以说话时刻或其他时刻为参照点。在不同的参照点下,同样的行为在俄、汉语中可能呈现出不同的时间形式。

Either of the two types of conception of time plays a dominant role in language. As Russian and Chinese feature different notions of time, they adopt different points of reference, i.e., the time of speaking or the time of non-speaking, when they depict an event. Thus the same event may be depicted with different expressions of time in the two languages.
