本文使用语料库工具Wmatrix对比研究中美媒体如何使用隐喻谈论“甲流”。研究结果表明虽然二者使用相同的隐喻词语和系统隐喻,但美国媒体使用的隐喻词语的意义更具体、系统隐喻更多;二者都以隐喻为指称策略,但反映出中美两国政府对待甲流的不同态度和思想意识。基于语料库方法的隐喻使用研究能促进认知语言学的“实证转向”和“社会转向”。
This article uses the corpus tool Wmatrix to compare how Chinese and American media use metaphor to talk about “A”. The results show that although the two use the same metaphorical words and systematic metaphors, the metaphorical words used by the American media have more specific meanings and more systematic metaphors. Both of them use metaphor as allegation tactics, but they reflect the treatment of both Chinese and American governments A flow of different attitudes and ideology. The study of metaphor use based on the corpus method can promote “positive turning ” and “social turning ” of cognitive linguistics.
