摘要语言是民族文化的重要组成部分,不同的民族有不同的历史,文化,风俗,这些不同表现在各民族的语言中。称谓语是语言系统中较小的一部分,却担当着重要的社交礼仪与交流的功能。它不仅仅是一种语言现象,还是一种社会,文化现象,是一个民族历史文化,风俗习惯等的集中体现。称谓语在日常生活中是人际关系的桥梁,在跨文化交流中也发挥了极其重要作用。它的使用往往在一开始就决定了交际活动能否顺利愉快的进行,其使用不当会阻碍交际活动,甚至导致交际失败。尤其在跨文化交际活动中,了解并掌握英汉称谓系统的差异并根据交际语境选择恰当的称谓语是成功进行跨文化交流的前提条件之一。本文试图以礼貌原则为理论基础,对比研究中西方称谓语的差异,以期促进中西方文化的交流与融合。
