摘要
人类语言大量地运用了以鸟兽虫鱼等动物为参照物的比喻 ,动物词汇中的比喻构词是阐释人类不同民族文化起源的重要元素之一。对中外动物词汇中比喻构词的比较研究是要探求隐含在其背后的文化内涵 ,从而进一步从认知的角度来解释中外语言中所蕴涵的文化共性。中外动物名称中的喻义差异或文化重合的认知阐释在承载着不同文化内涵的语言层面上体现出来 。
There are many animals, such as birds, beasts, insects, fishes, etc, used in metaphors in the human languages. These animal metaphors have explained the origins of different cultures. Research on comparisons of animal metaphors between Chinese and foreign languages provides an answer to the explanations of cultural generalities. Cognitive interpretations of cultural differences or coincidence in different animal metaphors have been reflected from different language levels, therefore a reasonable explanation can only be found from the point of view of cognitive science.
