认知语义视角下普通本科高校英语词汇教学探究

Exploration of English Vocabulary Teaching in Undergraduate Colleges and Universities from Perspective of Cognitive Semantics

认知语义学理论研究深入、英语词汇教学现实价值凸显、认知语义学与英语研究实证转向等,共同决定认知语义视角下普通本科高校英语词汇教学实践探究的必要性。然而当前,由于认知语义学融合度不足,高校英语词汇教学面临诸多问题。对此,通过文献研究法、举例法,说明高校英语教师需要加强认知语义理论研究和输入,将原型范畴理论、概念隐喻理论和认知语境等运用于英语词汇教学,提升大学生对英语词汇的理解程度,一定程度上弥补当前结合认知语义学探究普通本科高校英语词汇教学理论较为淡薄的情况,助推高校英语词汇教学的高质量创新实践。

The in-depth research on cognitive semantics theory,the prominent practical value of English vocabulary teaching,and the empirical shift in cognitive semantics and English research jointly determine the necessity of exploring the practical teaching of English vocabulary in ordinary undergraduate universities from the perspective of cognitive semantics.However,currently,due to insufficient integration of cognitive semantics,English vocabulary teaching in universities is facing many problems.In this regard,through literature research and examples,it is explained that English teachers in universities need to strengthen their research and input on cognitive semantic theory,apply prototype category theory,conceptual metaphor theory,and cognitive context to English vocabulary teaching,improve the understanding of English vocabulary among college students,and to some extent make up for the current weak exploration of English vocabulary teaching theory in ordinary undergraduate universities by combining cognitive semantics,promoting high-quality innovative practices in English vocabulary teaching in universities.
