Abstract In the study of cognitive linguistics, metonymy is a powerful cognitive instrument. It plays a very important role in human language use and reflects a significant form of human cognition. According to cognitive linguists, language is based on our experience of the world and the way we perceive and conceptualize it. It is believed that thought is embodied, that is, the structures used to put together our conceptual systems grow out of bodily experience and make sense of it. Moreover, the core of our conceptual system is directly grounded in perception, body movement and experience of a social character. Thought is imaginative, and this imaginative capacity allows for abstract thought to take the mind beyond what we can see and feel. Just like the metonymies are often based on bodily experience, the imaginative capacity is also embodied. In order to exemplify this subtle relationship between metonymy and embodied cognition, this paper briefly analyzes the cognitive mechanism of metonymy with respect to embodiment. 66556

摘要在认知语言学的研究中,转喻是一个强大的认知工具。它在人类语言使用中扮演着十分重要的角色, 反映了人类认知的重要形式。依照认知语言学家所言,
语言基于我们对于世界的经验感知,是我们感受世界并使之概念化的方式。人们相信,我们的思维是体验式的,即用来组成我们概念系统的结构成长于我们身体自身的体验以及对于这种体验的感知。此外,我们概念系统的核心是直接以感知、身体运动和社会角色的体验为基础的。思想是具有创造性的,这种具有创造性的能力让抽象的思想把我们带到所见和感觉以外的意识里。就像转喻通常是基于身体体验,这种创造性的能力也是体验式的。这篇论文为了阐明转喻和体验认知之间的微妙关系,对转喻的认知机制作了简要的分析。
