【摘要】 由Sperber 和Wilson(1986/1995)创建的关联理论从认知的角度提出,话语的产生是一个明示的过程。说话人的关联假设决定话语方式的选择。Verschueren(1999)认为,语用学是从认知、社会和文化的角度对语言使用规律进行研究的学科。因此,话语的产生是一个对认知、社会和文化语境进行顺应(adaptation)的过程。本文在吸取上述两个理论各自优点的基础上,提出一个新的语用理论模式:关联—顺应模式。此模式在强调语言认知关联功能的同时,使认知、社会和文化语境具体化,使关联理论解释的充分性和顺应理论的描述充分性得到和谐统一。新模式对语用学理论的建设和对语用学的实证研究有积极的借鉴作用.更多还原

【Abstract】 Sperber and Wilson (1986/1995) hold that communication is an ostensive-inferential process. The communicator抯 presumption of relevance decides his/her choices of styles. Verschueren (1999:7) claims that communication is an adaptation process and pragmatics is a general cognitive, social and cultural perspective on linguistic phenomena in relation to their usage in forms of behaviour. Therefore, using language consists in the continuous making of linguistic choices in terms of variability, negotiability and adaptability (Verschueren, 1999: 12). On the basis of the two theories, the aim of the present paper is to argue for the possibility of a new model of communication from the speaker抯 point of view. This model achieves adequacy in terms of description and explanation which the relevance theory and the adaptation theory fall short of.更多还原
