功能:语言认知的圭臬

Function:the Criterion of Language Cognition

语言知识是"形式与意义匹配"、"形式与功能匹配"的知识。功能是语言行为的目的和最终结果,是衡量和认知各个语言因素的圭臬。通过语言形式对语言进行功能分析,在认知语言功能的基础上把握语言的意义,是语言理解和翻译的基本途径和方法。

Language is based on the principles of the matching of form and meaning and the matching of form and function. Function is the ultimate purpose and final result of any linguistic behavior, so it is the criterion to judge and comprehend various language factors. The essential approach to language comprehension and translation is to have a function analysis of the language form and on the basis of function cognition to grasp the meaning of the language.
