Study On The Retreat Phenomenon Of Contemporary Chinese Neologism From 2009 To 2010

Since 2005,the Ministry of Education and the State Language Commission have published the "Report on the Living Conditions of Chinese Language" every year.Since 2007,the Commercial Press has published the Chinese Neologism of the previous year,including new words of the year.At present,the study of neologism has shown a diversified trend.However,most scholars focus on the static changes of neologism,and pay little attention to the dynamic changes of neologism.There are few studies on the retreat phenomenon of neologism,which has not attracted widespread attention in academic circles.With the help of theoretical knowledge of lexical semantics,dynamic research on linguistic phenomena,corpus linguistics,psycholinguistics,sociolinguistics,and applied linguistics,this paper will investigate the recurrence of 1,196 Chinese neologism from 2009 to 2010 in the seven years from2011 to 2017,dividing the main types of Chinese recessive neologism,in order to reveal the linguistic features and retreat of Chinese neologism.This paper mainly analyzes the linguistic characteristics of the retreat of contemporary Chinese neologism from four aspects: phonetics,semantics,rhetoric and grammar.The study found that multi-syllable words,homophonic words,transliterated words and acronyms tend to retreat in the phonetic features.In the semantic features,it is mainly divided into the retreat of the old words and the retreat of the disappearance of the semantic background.In the characteristics of rhetoric,the words created by the imitation of the words,the words created by the metaphor,and the words exaggerated tend to retreat.In the grammatical features,the group of words produced by analogy is more likely to retreat.The research results show that the reasons for the retreat of Chinese neologism are mainly divided into external reasons of language and internal reasons of language.From the external reasons,the retreat of social hot spots,the influence of online media and the psychological factors of language users have caused the retreat of Chinese neologism.The internal reasons are mainly based on the economic principles and normative principles of language,and promote the retreat of Chinese neologism.
