多義詞作為一種重要的普遍的語義現(xiàn)象引起了許多語言學(xué)家的關(guān)注。關(guān)于多義詞的研究有很長的歷史。一般來說,任何詞匯在使用之初都是單義的,每個事物或現(xiàn)象都有一個特定的詞匯來指代。隨著社會的進(jìn)步和發(fā)展,人類的認(rèn)知思維能力也不斷的發(fā)展著,人們將新的認(rèn)識與已知的事物相聯(lián)系,找到他們的關(guān)聯(lián)點(diǎn),用原有的概念來理解新事物的概念,并用同一個詞來表達(dá)與之相近的意思,這樣單義詞就變成了多義詞。因為多義詞具有多個不同且相互聯(lián)系的意義,所以它一直都是語言學(xué)習(xí)中令人頭疼的問題。在語言學(xué)領(lǐng)域,多義詞的演變總是很難解釋。比如,詞義是怎樣改變或擴(kuò)展的?原始含義和擴(kuò)展的意義之間存在著什么樣的關(guān)系? 本文首先對一詞多義及其他重要的相關(guān)概念進(jìn)行了介紹。一詞多義是指一個詞有兩個或兩個以上不同且相互聯(lián)系的意義。在此基礎(chǔ)上,本文簡要回顧了一詞多義的傳統(tǒng)研究以及它的不足。傳統(tǒng)語言學(xué)主要從共時和歷時兩個角度來研究一詞多義,但他們只考慮語言系統(tǒng)內(nèi)部,僅從結(jié)構(gòu)主義的角度出發(fā),強(qiáng)調(diào)整個語言系統(tǒng)內(nèi)部,忽視了人類習(xí)得語言的過程。認(rèn)知語言學(xué)的發(fā)展為我們分析一詞多義提供了較為有利的工具。本文主要以認(rèn)知語言學(xué)中的原型理論和隱喻、轉(zhuǎn)喻理論為基礎(chǔ),從一詞多義...
