语境与话语理解

Context and Utterance interpretation

语境是语用学研究中的重要概念之一。而话语理解是由语言感知提供的输入信息与已有的认知结构相互作用的结果。因此,语境在很大程度上影响着人对信息的认知和处理。本文就语境有助于话语理解这一方面进行讨论,并指出话语理解实际上是语境推理的过程,增强对语境的研究,对发展学生跨文化交际能力极为重要。

It concludes that utterance interpretation actually is a process of context inferences. Further study in it is of vital importance to develop student's cross - cultural capacity.
