Research On Chinese Animal Idioms

Idioms are important clusters in the Chinese vocabulary system.Animal idioms are a special kind of idioms.Specific research on animal idioms can not only confirm the general characteristics of idioms,but also help to reveal the uniqueness of idioms.Where.The paper makes a systematic and multi-angle study on animal idioms from the aspects of structural relationship,meaning generation,metaphor mechanism,cultural connotation and semantic rhyme,in order to provide data and path for the deep and detailed study of animal idioms.Help with correct application and provide reference for the classification of idioms.The paper is divided into six parts.The first part is the introduction.Firstly,the definition of animal idioms is defined,and the four-character idioms containing the names of animals are taken.According to this,912 idioms are selected from the Chinese Dictionary of Chinese Idioms and the Dictionary of Chinese Idioms,and are divided into one according to the number of animals.Idioms of species,two,three,and four animals.Secondly,it summarizes the research status of animal idioms in the academic circle by means of literature review,finds the inadequacies in animal idiom research,and points out the research value of the topic in linguistics,semantics,culture,metaphor and practical application..Finally,the research methods applied in the writing process of the article are clarified.The second part is the structural analysis of animal idioms.The grammatical structure of animal idioms is divided into five general structures: union,partiality,supplementation,verbobject,and subject-predicate.There are four special types of structure,such as linkage,system,intention,and contraction,and the distribution of structure types.The situation was quantitatively investigated.In addition,this section also examines the relationship between the structure of animal idioms and the steps.The third part is the analysis of the meaning of animal idioms.The physical characteristics of animals are related to the surface and deep semantics of animal idioms.They can be directly selected and applied in the surface semantics,and there are metaphors,descriptions and extensions between them and deep semantics.Animal constituents,by their own characteristics,can bring semantics or emotional or image color when participating in the constituent language.Synonymous and antisense relations are two important types of animal idiom semantic clustering,and there are various constituent types within the two.From the perspective of semantic relations,there are semantic role types such as acting,accepting,adorning,genitive,way,and tools between the components of animal idioms and other components,and there is an imbalance in distribution;The examination of the semantic role can also show the distribution relationshipbetween the composition of the animal and the grammatical structure and grammatical components.The fourth part is a metaphorical analysis of animal idioms.Under the guidance of metaphor theory,this part divides the types of source and target domains according to the corresponding relationship between animal idiom surface layer,deep semantics and source domain and target domain.The source domain is generally animal-related content or action behavior.The target domain points to people,things,behaviors or reasons.The application of metaphor in animal idioms can play a role in the construction of idioms and the expression of language.The fifth part is the analysis of the cultural connotation of animal idioms.This chapter first analyzes the zodiac,farming,facial and ritual cultures displayed in the animal idioms,and then counts the frequency of the animals appearing in the corpus,and selects the animal idioms from the high frequency of "horse","tiger","fish" and "dog." The idioms of animal components such as "Dragon" analyze the cultural connotations behind specific animals.The sixth part takes the two parts of "cluster" and "carriage","one arrow and two sculptures" and "one stone and two" as examples to analyze the semantic rhyme.With the rich corpus in well-known corpus,the context,word collocation and feelings Color analysis and summary,to understand the semantic tendency of word combination,and to make suggestions for synonym analysis and dictionary compilation.The final conclusion part summarizes the full text,pointing out the innovation points and deficiencies.There are two main points of innovation: one is the multi-angle study of rich corpus;the other is the semantic analysis of animal idioms under the guidance of semantic rhyme theory.Of course,the corpus of semantic rhythm analysis can be enriched.
