摘要
恭维是人们日常交际中常用的一种礼貌言语行为。在不同的文化情境中,恭维言语行为也各不相同。恭维别人时,恭维者试图让被恭维者认识到其做出的积极评价,并希望被恭维者能给出得体的应答。文章通过对355条中美恭维语及应答语料进行对比分析,发现在美国英语和汉语两种语言环境下,恭维语应答各有其特定的模式,并且汉语恭维语的应答模式更具多样性。
Compliment is a frequently used polite speech act in people~ daily communication. Compliment behaviors vary from culture to culture. In giving a compliment, the speaker is attempting to get the recipient to recognize the fonner's positive evaluation about the latter and an appropriate response is expected. An em- pirical study of compliment response patterns in American English and Chinese has been presented based on a corpus of 355 pairs of compliments and compliment responses. It is found that there basically are certain fixed modes for compliment responses in both languages and the response patterns in Chinese are much more diversified than that in American English
