The cognitive linguistic view provides new perspectives and proofs for the study of them. According to cognitive linguists, they are a common cognitive phenomenon of human beings, far from being a mere matter of ornament to language. The article aims at pointing out the differences among them from a cognitive perspective. The comparison of them from a cognitive linguistic view can help the learners to master them more easily.展开更多
