文化与语言关系密切,语言是文化积淀的产物,任何一种文化、任何一个社会中都存在着语言禁忌,都有一些东西人们避免直接涉及,而使用大量的委婉语。英语委婉语是特定文化的折射。委婉语折射了社会文化生活的方方面面。了解英语文化就应该了解委婉语在不同交际语境中的应用。
Culture and language are closely related. Language is the product of cultural accumulation. There are language taboos in any culture and any society. There are some things that people avoid directly and use a lot of euphemisms. English euphemism is the refraction of a particular culture. Euphemism reflects all aspects of social and cultural life. Understanding English culture should understand the application of euphemism in different communication contexts.
