摘要
近些年来,核心体态动词成为不少认知语言学家关注的焦点。跨语言研究表明,核心体态动词有明显的多义性,常常会发生语法化。基于俄罗斯国家语料库对核心体态动词стоять进行的研究显示,стоять能从空间意义引申出多种非空间意义,包括表示印刷文字的位置、事物的结构完整性、坚持或控制、等级中的位置、将来发生的事件等。其中出现频率最高、最重要的引申是表示存在,这与其他语言中的情况是一致的。概念隐喻、转喻、意象图式和体验相关性是语义引申过程中最重要的机制。
Posture verbs denoting 'sit','stand' and 'lie' have aroused considerable interest within Cognitive Linguistics on account of the richness of the polysemy and grammaticalizations which they enter into across languages.We explore the usage of Russian posture verb 'стоять' in Russian National Corpus,a database of written and spoken Russian with over 140 million words.The corpus-based study indicates that 'стоять' has developed a variety of meanings by means of extension from its original spatial meaning.The most important extension refers to the existence of various entities,both physical and non-physical ones.This is compatible with discoveries in studies of other languages.In the process of semantic extension,conceptual metaphor,metonymy,image-schemas,and experiential correlations play important roles.
