A Brief Study of the Interpretation of Chinese Words and Expressions
The language variation which is caused by speech variations is the motivation for the language system to constantly adapt to social development and communication needs,and the semantic variations in people's communication can be expressed more or less in different forms at the lexical and gram-matical level.Words and expressions like"掉枪花、耍花腔(Play tricks)"and耳闻目见、耳闻目睹(Hear with your own ears and see with your own eyes)","干名采誊、沽名钓誉(Tobuy fame and solicit or purchase praise)","巧新妇不得无面䬪饦、巧妇难为无米之炊(onecan't make bricks without straw)"and"随文生义、望文生义(Befar-fetched and not seek for deep understandings)"have similar character-istics in forms and structures as well as the characteristics of blending in deep semantics.These character-istics constitute a continuum in which words and expressions are both different from each other and related to each other in vocabulary and grammar level.From this,we can see the space-time evolution of different factors like"Speech meaning(←→)Language meaning"and"Oral language(←→)North South Common Language(←→)Written Language"and"Local culture(←→)Foreign culture"and"The social classes tend to be refined(←→)Follow local customs".It reflects intricate relationships of"Language(←→)People(←→)The objective world"and the value orientation of people's specific choices.The interpretation of these words should tightly follow the uniqueness of Chinese in terms of Chinese characters and words,and words and phrases,and pay attention to the textual research and discrimination of form,sound and meaning.
