原型范畴理论对语义模糊的解释作用

Explanatory Roles of Vague Meaning from Prototype Theory

本文从认知语言学的原型范畴理论出发,用其典型性和家族相似性对语义模糊做出解释,论证了有些语义的模糊来自于客观世界的模糊。原型范畴为这种由客观世界的模糊导致语义模糊提供了解释的理论依据,而对由观念导致的语义模糊却力不从心。

The paper bases on prototype theory from cognitive linguistics, applying its prototypicality, family resemblance to explain the vague meaning and prove some vague meanings from the vagueness in world. Prototype theory provides theoretic evidence to explain the vague meaning from the vagueness in world, however, it can＇t provide reasonable evidence to the vague meaning led to by the concept.
