体认术语学视域下的中药转喻命名研究

Study on Metonymic Naming of Chinese Medicine from the Perspective of Embodied-Cognitive Terminology

中药名是中药的符号表征,是外界了解中药的认知起点,是外界了解中华民族优秀传统文化以及中国人民体验认知的心智入口。文章在体认术语学视域下对中药转喻命名的体验性和认知性进行了阐释。研究发现,中药转喻命名的体验性体现在命名需要仰仗命名者的经验体系;中药转喻命名的认知性体现为命名过程是一个主观化的认知加工过程。对具有显著中国特色的事物进行命名时,要让这类事物的名称呈现中国深厚的精神文化积淀和传统文化魅力。此外,除了强调命名的文化性,还要追求命名的规约性,要促使二者达成一种有机的平衡。

The name of traditional Chinese medicine is not only the symbolic representation of traditional Chinese medicine,but also the cognitive starting point for the outside world to understand traditional Chinese medicine,as well as the mental entrance for the outside world to understand the excellent traditional Chinese culture and the experience and cognition of Chinese people.This paper explains the empirical and cognitive nature of Chinese medicine metonymic naming from the perspective of Embodied-Cognitive Terminology.Our study indicates that the experiential nature of Chinese medicine metonymy naming is embodied in the fact that the naming process depends on the experience system of the nomenclature.The cognitive nature of Chinese medicine metonymy naming is embodied in the naming process which is a subjective cognitive process.When naming things with significant Chinese characteristics,we should make the names of such things show the profound spiritual and cultural accumulation of the country and highlight the charm of the splendid and dazzling traditional culture of five thousand years.Moreover,in addition to emphasizing the cultural nature of naming,we should also pursue the conventions of naming,and actively promote the two aspects to reach an organic balance.
