有关于“A跟B一样(X)”比较义和比拟义的认知差异

The Cognitive Difference between the Comparative Meaning and the Analogous Meaning of “A Is the Same as B (X)”

“A跟B一样(X)”句式可以表示比较,也可以表示比拟。当表示比较时,差异不但体现在语音形式上,也体现在句法形式上。比较句中,人们对B的语义特征认知上单一,因此句式中的“X”可以省略;比拟句中,当人们在认知上共同认为B是“X”的典型成员,X也可省。

The sentence pattern “A as B (x)” can be used to express comparison or analogy. When expressing comparison, the difference is not only reflected in the phonetic form, but also in the syntactic form. In comparative sentences, people’s cognition of the semantic features of B is single, so the “X” in the sentence pattern can be omitted;when people think that B is a typical member of “X”, X can also be omitted.
