汉语拼音缩写的认知固化与规约化研究

Cognitive Entrenchment and Conventionalization of the Chinese Pinyin Abbreviations

作为近年来兴起的一类特殊表达式,汉语拼音缩写频繁出现在网络交流中,引起年轻网民的广泛关注。拼音缩写形式新奇,其传播突破时间和空间的限制,部分已成为约定俗成的表达式。文章基于Schmid提出的固化——规约化模型,探究拼音缩写在固化和规约化过程中具有的特征,并分析说话人的心理动因。研究表明:拼音缩写在固化过程中具有非组构性、不确定性和语境的制约性三个特征;在规约化过程中则主要呈现出创新性、经济性和排他性。同时,拼音缩写的固化与规约化动因包括说话人的求异心理、娱乐心理和从众心理。

As a novelty expression in recent years,the Chinese Pinyin abbreviations,utilized frequently in cyber language,have attracted wide attention among the young generation.In its novelty,the abbreviations diffuse across time and beyond space,becoming a sort of conventional expression.Based on Schmid’s Entrenchment-and-Conventionalization Model,this study discussed the characteristics of the Pinyin abbreviations in the processes of entrenchment and conventionalization,and analyzed the motivation of speakers.The study showed that in the process of entrenchment,the abbreviations possess the characteristics of non-compositionality,non-determinacy,and context restriction;in the process of conventionalization,they mainly present the characteristics of innovation,linguistic economy,and exclusiveness.In addition,the motivations include novelty seeking,entertainment and conformity mentality.
