摘要
旧的修辞学认为模糊是语言里的一种错误,希望限制和消除它,而现在人们越来越清醒地认识到,其实模糊语言比精确语言常常更有表现力,这也是由模糊语言自身的美学特质所决定的。本文将这些审美特征归纳为:得体、简约、精确、意境、幽默和形象。
Fussy language has always been a synonym of errors and mistakes in the conventional rhetoric, and various attempts were made to restrict-even eliminate it. Nowadays people increasingly realize that fuzzy language is often more expressive than “accurate” language, which is determined by the peculiar aesthetic effects borne by fuzzy language. In Ibis paper, we classify these aesthetic effects as being: appropriate, concise, accurate, image-provoking, humorous and vivid.
