动词make的一词多义关系模式初探

A Study on the Polysemy Relation Model of the Verb "make"

一词多义是各种语言中普遍存在的现象。英语中除了术语以外,单义词是很少的,多数的词都是多义词。本文从认知语义学的视角,运用认知语言学的"原型范畴理论"以及"基于理论的多义词分析法"对动词make进行认知研究,探索构建make一词多义的意义关系模式。

Polysemy is a common lexical phenomenon in different languages.English has quite a few monosemous words except some special terms,and most of the words are polysemic.This thesis is going to study the verb ＂make＂ from a cognitive perspective on the basis of ＂the prototype theory＂ and ＂the principled polysemy approach＂ so as to establish a meaning relational model of ＂make＂.
