摘要

语义韵指的是节点词与其搭配词之间的语义氛围。基于COCA 中的小说子库和BCC 中的文学子库,本研究对近义词ANNOUNCE,DECLARE 和宣布的频数分布、显著搭配词和语义韵进行对比。结果表明:ANNOUNCE,DECLARE和宣布的频数分布均存在显著性差异;DECLARE 和宣布在显著搭配词的语义特征方面更加一致,多用于比较正式的场合,但ANNOUNCE 多用于非正式场合;ANNOUNCE,DECLARE 和宣布在语义韵方面趋向一致,均呈现中性语义韵或者说错综语义韵。但通过进一步的分析,DECLARE 和宣布的语义韵色彩更偏向于中性,而ANNOUNCE 的语义韵偏向于中性和积极。

Abstract

Semantic prosody is the semantic atmosphere shared by the node word and its collocates. With the FICTION part from COCA and the LITERATURE part from BCC as data, this research aims to compare the semantic prosody of the synonyms of ANNOUNCE, DECLARE and Xuanbu in terms of their frequencies, significant collocates.It is found that: There are significant differences between ANNOUNCE, DECLARE and Xuanbu in their frequencies of usage; DECLARE and Xuanbu share more consistency in semantic features of significant collocates, mostly used in formal occasions, while ANNOUNCE is habitually used in informal occasions; The semantic prosody of DECLARE and Xuanbu tends to be neutral, while the semantic prosody of ANNOUNCE tends to be neutral and positive.
