国内模糊语言研究:现状与目标

Fuzzy Linguistic Research in China:An Overview and a Foresight

国内32年来关于模糊语言的研究在内容和数量上均发生了一些变化。在理论推介方面,从以形式化为主的理论介绍发展到对多种理论的引介;在研究、探索与应用方面,呈现出多理论、多角度和多方面的研究。联系语义、指称、体裁、翻译与交际目的进行的研究占多数,语法、语篇、语音、语形研究方面,以及针对汉语的模糊特性的研究不多。技术手段低和应用目的不强仍然是主要问题。我国的模糊语言学,要抓住汉语本身的独特优势,进行汉外对比和模糊翻译研究,加强理论体系与内容体系建设,瞄准计算机领域中的应用,将会迎来一片新的领地。

Fuzzy linguistics in China has witnessed a rapid increase in researches and changes of research objects in the past 32 years. Theoretic introduction has moved from the introduction of formalist views to a multi-dimensional introduction. There have been apphcations of a variety of theories and approaches to aspects of fuzzy linguistic studies and explorations. Researches investigating fuzziness in meanings, references, different genres, translation and communication are dominant while few investigate fuzziness in grammar, at discourse level, in speech sounds, language forms, and the fuzzy nature of Chinese. Low technology and lack of application as an object remain to be the primary problems. For fuzzy linguistics in China to enter into a new era, it is necessary to look into the unique fuzzy features in Chinese for relevant contrastive and translation studies, to strengthen the construction of the theoretic frames, to broaden the research scope, and to aim at applications in computer science.
