摘要
从传统修辞学分析,借代是一种修辞格,它不直接说出某人或事物的本来名称,而是通过联想,借用与其密切相关的名称或其本身的某些属性来代替;而认知语言学认为借代不仅是一种重要的修辞手法,还是一种概念现象,一种思维模式,并称之为转喻。通过对借代的理解,结合借代在新闻英语中常见模式,分析借代在新闻写作中可以使要表达的句子更加简洁凝练,信息传递更加便利和经济,从而体现其语言表达的简约性。
Metonymy,viewed from traditional rhetoric,is a figure of speech,an important rhetorical device.According to cognitive linguistic,metonymy is also one concept phenomenon,a basic mode of thinking.Through the understanding of metonymy,this paper concludes that one of the advantages of metonymy is economy,an economical way of expressing,which meets the needs of journalistic English language expression.Using metonymy is one of the main characteristics of journalistic English.Through many models of metonymy used in journalistic English metonymy is considered as a very important device in creating certain expressive effects,such as vividness and brevity.
