本文基于情境关联论研究汉语谐音格的运用。谐音格表达的格式是由心智倾向性确定的。情境关联论是在继承我国传统文化的基础上和在认知科学发展的学术背景下形成的。它作为语言运用的一个通则,体现了语言运用的基本原理:任何成功的语言运用,话语主体的“情”同话语所涉及的“境”总是关联在一起的,而话语的接受主体也会对此关联感同身受,从而产生交际主体在此情此境中的词语表达和理解。这个过程落实为语言表达就是“物-情-词”的关联,可以概括为“情以物迁,辞以情发”,谐音格的表达就是以一对谐音的“辞”(词语)表达话语主体此时此刻的“情”。

This paper studies the usage of Chinese homophonic figure of speech from the perspective of Situation-Emotion Correlation Theory(SECT). The choice of homophonic expressions is determined by mental tendency. The SECT is formed under the guidance of traditional Chinese culture and in the light of the academic development of cognitive science. The idea of situation-emotion correlation gives a general rule of language use and reflects the basic principles of language use, which means that in any successful language use, the “feeling” of the speech subject is always related to the “situation” involved in the discourse, and the receptive subject of the speech will feel the same as if he himself experienced it in person. On the basis of this, the communicative subjects can express and understand the given expressions in the situation. This process is represented in language as emotion-scenery-diction correlation, which can be summarized as “Emotion changes with scenery and the diction goes with the emotion”. The expression of homophonic figure of speech means that a pair of homophonic “words” express the emotion of the discourse subject on the spot.
