詈语的语用认知价值探讨

詈语在自然语言中广泛存在和使用是不争的事实，但长期以来詈语被视为教材编写和课堂教学的禁区。文章在探讨詈语定义和分类的基础上，对詈语在交际中的认知语用价值进行了实例论证。进而提出在语言教学中对詈语重新定位的问题。     

Reasoning with Intensional Negative Adjectivals: Semantics, Pragmatics, and Context

Intensional negative adjectives alleged , artificial , fake , false , former , and toy are unusual adjectives that depending on context may or may not be restricting functions. A formal theory of their semantics, pragmatics, and context that uniformly accounts for their complex mathematical and computational characteristics and captures some peculiarities of individual adjectives is presented.
Such adjectives are formalized as new concept builders, negation‐like functions that operate on the values of intensional properties of the concepts denoted by their arguments and yield new concepts whose intensional properties have values consistent with the negation of the old values. Understanding these new concepts involves semantics, pragmatics and context‐dependency of natural language. It is argued that intensional negative adjectives can be viewed as a special‐purpose, weaker, conntext‐dependent negationin natural language. The theory explains and predicts many inferences licensed by expressions involving such adjectives. Implementation of sample examples demonstrates its computational feasibility. Computation of context‐dependent interpretation is discussed.
The theory allows one to enhance a knowledge representation system with similar concept building, negation‐like, context‐dependent functions, the availability of which appears to be a distinct characteristic of natural languages.     

Why does language matter to artificial intelligence?

Artificial intelligence, conceived either as an attempt to provide models of human cognition or as the development of programs able to perform intelligent tasks, is primarily interested in theuses of language. It should be concerned, therefore, withpragmatics. But its concern with pragmatics should not be restricted to the narrow, traditional conception of pragmatics as the theory of communication (or of the social uses of language). In addition to that, AI should take into account also the mental uses of language (in reasoning, for example) and the existential dimensions of language as a determiner of the world we (and our computers) live in. In this paper, the relevance of these three branches of pragmatics-sociopragmatics, psychopragmatics, and ontopragmatics-for AI are explored.

“不是N的N”格式研究

现代汉语语法中"不是N的N"是一种特殊的构式,但已有的研究大多是从单一的角度分析变量的语义或者是构式义,尚未对其进行多角度的分析。尝试运用认知语言学中的构式理论,采用描写和解释相结合的方法,对这个结构进行多角度分析,旨在深化对汉语中这种新型表达式的认识。     

英语国际语理念指导下的高职大学英语教学

高职院校主要培养应用型人才,但目前高职院校的大学英语教学却没有其自身的特点,仍然基本是本科院校大学英语教学的微缩版,难度降低,课时减少。由于大学英语的教学没有针对性,与学生主修的专业没有关联,导致学生逐渐失去学习英语的兴趣。高职院校的大学英语应首先明确其定位,由于其应用人才培养的特点,应采用英语国际语的教学理念,强调英语交际能力的培养和学习者的全面发展。在这一理念下,采用相应的语言,文化和语用教学方法。     

设计语用学的范式研究

目的确定设计语用学研究范畴,建立设计语用学的研究范式,进而通过设计语用学理论发展对设计方法论提供新的理论依据。方法从设计符号传播语境视角出发,对设计方、用户和用户的社交对象之间的设计符号传播模式进行论述。结论结合整合营销传播理论和设计事理学理论,得出了设计语用学的研究范畴、研究意义、研究核心及整合产品设计营销传播与定义设计符号使用场景两种设计语用学的研究路径,完成了设计语用学的理论框架。
