摘要
研究了抽象概念“词语”的中英跨文化语料,采用Lakoff的认知体验哲学观点,考察了“词语是食物/饮品”和“词语是物体”等10种概念隐喻。揭示了人类以已知喻未知、以熟悉喻不熟悉、以简单喻繁复和以具体喻抽象的隐喻思维模式。并从原型理论的角度分析了“词语”概念的隐喻延伸及其范畴化,给出了“词语”的认知模型和语义结构。
The cross-cultural corpus study of one particular concept “word” in Chinese and English, covered in this article, explores ten inherent conceptual metaphors, such as “words are food/drink”, “words are object”, etc. The findings verify the claim that human cognition is metaphorical from the way human conveys the unknown, the unfamiliar, the complicated, and the abstract in terms of the known, the familiar, the simple and the tangible. In addition, there is an analysis of metaphorical extension of word family members with regard to prototypical categorization, followed by cognition norm and semantic typology concerning “word”.
