读书小札|《双语语料库界面下英汉语义韵对比研究》
李晓红博士的专著《双语语料库界面下英汉语义韵对比研究》秉承辛克莱关于扩展意义单位的理论框架，在英汉双语视角下探讨并揭示两种语言表达语义韵——隐含态度意义——的特征异同。在研究方法上，采用自下而上的语料库语言学研究范式，借助平行语料库和对比语料库中客观、丰富的语料证据，发掘和描述新的语言现象，概括新的语言型式。英汉、汉英双向平行语料库能够提供大量的双语对应证据，有助于拟定词语层级的对应。对比语料库——现代汉语语料库和英国国家语料库——用于发现以节点词为核心的短语层级意义单位，即包含搭配、类联接、语义趋向和语义韵各组合要素的扩展词汇单位。借助对比语料库中客观、丰富的语料证据能够发现凭直觉和经验无法发觉的语言聚合规律，揭示双语扩展词汇单位在形式、意义和功能层面的对应特征，最终确立高程度的双语对等。
小编通读了该书全文，发现《双语语料库界面下英汉语义韵对比研究》解决了3大难题：
（1）积极语义韵、消极语义韵和混杂（中性）语义韵的分类过于粗疏，该专著将语用引入，细化了积极和消极的具体语用范畴。
（2）对语义韵强度进行量化研究。
（3）基于上述定性和定量的语义韵研究成果，放置在英汉双语对比课题中，反思跨语言、跨文化的语义韵极性冲突、语义韵强度差异等问题，解决了翻译研究的经典课题“对等词中的假朋友”。对于词典编纂、翻译理论与实践和外语教学都有极高的参考价值。
