“语法隐喻”这一概念是由韩礼德在1976年首次提出的,提出以来语法隐喻成为语言学界的研究热点。语法隐喻在系统功能语言学中占据了基础地位,它是语义层与词汇语法层的重要联结方式。本文首先介绍了经典语法隐喻理论,然后阐述了语法隐喻的发展阶段,希望对研究系统功能语言学的语法隐喻的学习者有一定的帮助。 The notion of “grammatical metaphor” was first proposed by Halliday in 1976, and since its introduction, grammatical metaphor has become a research hotspot in linguistics. Grammatical metaphor occupies a fundamental position in system functional linguistics, which is an important way to connect the semantic layer with the lexical grammar layer. This paper first introduces the classical grammatical metaphor theory, and then expounds the development stage of grammatical metaphor, hoping to help learners who study grammatical metaphor of systematic functional linguistics.
