摘要
语言是构建和表征概念系统的工具之一,也是表达概念系统的一个重要工具.由于概念系统的丰富性和多模态特征,而语言表达又受到其"线性"和追求"省力"特点的影响,语言表达只能以点带面、由此及彼.因此,转喻是语言表达中一种非常普遍的现象.转喻思维的本质是"旁敲侧击""由此及彼""由点及面".其实语言表达整体上体现的就是一种"触发"的特征,即语言表达触发"概念系统".语言表达基于概念系统,基于说话者和听话者的共享知识,语言理解更依赖听话者的概念和语境知识.
Abstract
Language is a tool for constructing and representing conceptual systems,and it's also an important tool for expressing conceptual systems.Due to the richness and multimodal nature of conceptual systems,and the linearity and least effort characteristics of language production,language expressions can only capture part of the whole.Therefore,metonymy is a very common phenomenon in language expression.The essence of metonymy is"indirect implication","from here to there",or"from part to whole".In fact,language expression as a whole reflects a characteristic of"triggering",that is,language triggers the"conceptual system".Language expression is based on conceptual systems,and language comprehension relies more on conceptual knowledge and context.
