网络语言中隐喻现象的研究

隐喻作为人类“语言无处不在的原理“在网络语言中得到了充分的体现。它产生的因素不单来自于历史、社会,更来自于人类认知思维这一内部因素。而本文重点是从认知的角度来分析网络语言中隐喻现象。隐喻作为一种思维现象,就是人们利用一个概念领域去说明另外一个概念领域。网络语言就是人们通过已感觉到与身边事物的相似性,或将原先并未感觉到相似性的两个事物并置在一起而形成的。对网络语言中隐喻的理解就是对喻体的意义与语境冲突的消除,而这一冲突消除的过程的主要依据就是本体与喻体之间的相似性。通过对它们之间相似性的分析,使得对网络语言有了更深的认识。

Metaphors in Internet Language

Metaphor, as the omnipresent principle of language, also exists in the internet language. It origins not only from historical or social development but also from the way of human's thinking. This essay is to analyze metaphors in internet language from the cognitive respect. Metaphor, a way of thinking about things, is a mapping of the structure of a source model to target model. Internet language, as a newly-found thing, is an expression in which something is compared to something else which people are familiar with. Understanding metaphors in the internet language is to erase the conflict between context and the meaning of vehicle. The process of eliminating the conflict primarily depends on the similarities between tenor and vehicle. After analyzing these similarities, we can better the understanding of internet language.
