本文通过对汉语“心”和英语“heart”语义领域转移的比较,以期说明藏在语义转移现象背后的人类共同心理认知规律的存在。从“心”的个案分析来看,这种规律是存在的。人类的认知过程具有普遍性,在不同的语言里具有同一指称义的词其语义转移模式有共同的规律可循。当然,其中也会存在一些差异,这些差异往往是由不同文化心理造成的。 This paper compares the semantic shifts between the Chinese “heart” and the “heart” of English, in order to explain the existence of human common psychological cognition behind the semantic shift phenomenon. From the case analysis of the “heart”, this law exists. The cognitive process of human beings is universal. In the different languages, there are common rules for semantic transfer patterns of words with the same referential meaning. Of course, there will be some differences among them. These differences are often caused by different cultural psychology.
