试论现代汉语方言词语的理据

Analysis of Motivations of Dialect Words in Modern Chinese

词的理据是词的表达形式与词义存在的某种内在联系,现代汉语方言词语的理据可以分为显性理据和隐性理据两大类。分析方言词语的理据,既要注重共时平面上的分析、概括,又要结合社会文化,民俗风情等方面从历时的平面上来揭示其深层的内涵,从而更准确地把握词语的含义,不至于错误地理解词义。

Word motivation is a kind of inner link between word form and word meaning. The motivations of dialect words in modern Chinese can be classified into explicit and implicit motivations. We not only attach importance to the analysis of motivations in synchronological aspects, but also expose their deep intensions in diachronic aspects from social culture, folk customs, and so on. Only so can we catch the meaning of words correctly and avoid the wrong understanding of them.
