浅析汉语功能假信息的产生

On the Generation of Functional Fake Information in Chinese

汉语中功能假信息的产生是因为交际双方都受到汉语言文化礼貌原则影响的缘故,而汉语对修辞的较高要求也是功能假信息能够得以流传的原因。功能假信息中运用的夸张、反语、隐喻、委婉语等修辞手法,虽使说话人所说的内容与事实相违背,却强化了话语的语用功能。可见,功能假信息是符合汉语言文化礼貌原则的语用策略。

The paper proposes that functional fake information results from the principle of politeness in Chinese culture and the rhetoric employed in verbal communication. The rhetorical devices, such as hyperbole, irony, metaphor and euphemism, which violate the principle of truth, though, may strengthen the pragmatic functions of discourse and thus, are applicable pragmatic strategies.
