The Study On Negative Meaning Of Chinese Lexicology

This paper deals with the types, generation, representation, development and the acknowledgement of negative meaning of Chinese lexicology from a cross-sectional design and a longitudinal design at the same time. It focuses on the semantic and lexicological representation of the negative meaning basing on the ground of sememe both with the grammatical prospect and the lexicological prospect. The main contents and conclusions are displayed as below:1. The types` features, generative methods, representative methods and conditions of the negative meaning of Chinese lexicology are described and discussed from a multi-discipline. It is argued that the generation of the negative meaning of Chinese lexicology must preset a given identity and some relative principles firstly, and then it has to construct a lexical schema with some given restrictions, and it always following with a matching between the identity and such a schema.After that, a negative meaning will be activated by the confirm of common social psychological standards and cognitive frames.2. Using the value-matching theory and the lexical interpretation schema, the distribution of the negative semantic conjunction and the negative semantic orientation and the negative semantic scope and their relationship are investigated in this paper. It suggests that there are some obligatory co-occurrence restrictions on the collocation's semantic features constrained by the negative semantic conjunction. The author also finds that some power relationship embodied in the lexicography interpretation schema can play a role on the focus of the negative semantic orientation and it's moving.3. Comparing with change process of some ontological concepts from the history of ideas which have a close relationship with Chinese classical culture, the development process and the relative principles of some lexical family belonging to a given semantic category are exploited with synchronic and diachronic interactions. Unlike the traditional research, the author points out that the culture meaning in Chinese animal words should be analysed into two levels:symbolic potential cultural meaning and metaphor potential cultural meaning.Their distinguishes and own characters are also discussed. Furthermore, a whole view of the development of the negative meaning of such lexical family is displayed in the research of the development of the words meaning at different historical registers.4. On the concern of representation of a negative sememe in paradigmatic relations,this paper explores the influences of new sememe's negative meaning exerting on the lexical entry and the semantic field which it belongs to after it was generated.For discovering some preferences on the co-occurrence collocation and differences of the semantic category and the grammar relationship of the preferences that a given word affected on its neighbourhood, some investigation are made on the data of several word which come from the net corpus. The analyses of the data show that there are two ways of semantic overflow. A result of survey focusing on attitude and acknowledgement differences of respondents toward the negative meaning of Chinese lexicology when a social individual is asked to made some judgment on several groups of words demonstrates that the attitudes and acknowledgement vary a lot with the social background of the respondents. Utilizing heretical discourse theory,a following analysis examines the relevance between the change of prestige relationship of a given speaking mass and the different identity of individual,it suggests that such subjective identity of the prestige and it's change also casts a profound effect on the deterioration or amelioration of some words,and so does the modern mass communication.
