认知视角下的汉语间接指令研究

间接指令一直是间接言语行为研究的热点话题,不少理论对其进行过阐释,但目前国内从认知的角度来研究汉语间接指令行为的成果较少。认知语言学发现,意象图式理论在解释间接指令的认知机制中具有重要的作用。由于言语行为的实施过程符合力图式的基本特点,因此可以用力图式来解释看似不相关的间接指令行为背后一致的认知机制。从意象图式理论的角度来研究汉语间接言语行为,使我们对人类的思维、推理和交流过程的认知有了更深刻的认识。

A Cognitive Analysis of Chinese Indirect Directives

As a hot topic in the researches of indirect speech acts, indirect directives have been interpreted by a variety of theories, however, so far there is no systematic analysis of the production and comprehension of indirect directives from a cognitive prospective in China. Image schema theory plays an important role in interpreting the cognitive mechanisms of indirect directives. Understanding what is going on in human mind when they produce and comprehend special language phenomena such as indirect directives can give us insight not only into language, but also into the human cognitive state of thinking, reasoning and communicating with each other.
