类典型差异与语言习得

Prototype Difference and Language Acquisition

从认知角度来说,人们以类典型和家族相似性为基础,并且依赖于某一语言的上下文、语义、句法以及不同语言的语言语境对周围世界进行分类,以及对语言本身进行范畴化。因此,了解类典型的这种语言语境依存性,对词义、句义的理解,对于听说交际、写作阅读等方面的语言教学都有积极的作用。

Based on prototype theory, human beings rely on context, semantics and syntax to categorize their surroundings and languages as well. Hence, a study on prototype theory plays a positive role in understanding and teaching languages.
