关于词库及其运行原理的一些假设

语言学中的词库指人脑、识别、提取以及构造字词的能力。根据以往的假设,可分为无序排列式和有序排列式。但无论是哪一种,都要涉及到词库的基本储存单位、词库的运行原理等问题。生成语法学界以及计算语言学界对这些问题也都提出过一些解释。笔者赞同词库中的词汇是依照语义原则组织起来的一个网络,赞同词典里储存着词、词缀和词干的假设。无论是词、词干或词缀,只要有意义或功能可言,都是语义网络中的成员,与其它结点有这样或那样的联系。这些联系都是语义复合的重要资源。

The Hypotheses about the Lexicon and its Operational Principles

The lexicon refers to the mental ability of word-keeping.According to the hypotheses ever made,words are kept orderly or casually in the lexicon.No matter in which state the lexicon is,the following questions need to be answered： what are the basic units stored in the lexicon？ How does the lexicon work？ etc.Generative grammar and computer linguistics have offered some assumptions.The author agrees with the idea that the lexicon is a semantically-organized network,which contains words,suffixes and stems as its elements.No matter whether it is a word,suffix or stem,it is a node in the semantic network,a node relating to other nodes in some way.The relations among the nodes are important resources for semantic combination.
