TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: "Metaphor Comprehension - A special mode of language

Each generalized metaphor contains a recognition network, a basic mapping, additional transfer mappings, and an implicit intention component. It is argued that the method reduces metaphor interpretation from a reconstruction to a recognition task. | Metaphor Comprehension - A special mode of Language processing Extended Abstract Jon M. Slack Open University . The paper addresses the question of whether a complete language understanding system requires special procedures in order to comprehend metaphorical language. To answer this question it is necessary to delineate the processes involved in metaphor comprehension and to determine the uniqueness of such processes in the context of existing language understanding systems. 1. DEFINING THE PROBLEM For the purposes of this paper a metaphor is defined as a linguistic input containing elements which result in a mismatch at the semantic level which the language understanding system attempts to interpret. For example the sentence Billboards are warts on the landscape . 1 results in a semantic mismatch represented by the sentence Billboards are not a member of the category warts . 2 which is encountered when the underlying conceptual . structure is built for the sentence. However the mismatch need not be restricted to elements of the same sentence. Even though the elements of a particular sentence may not result in a semantic mismatch the whole sentence itself can be metaphorical with respect to its linguistic context. In this case the semantic mismatch is encountered when the interpreter has difficulty connecting the conceptual representation of the sentence to the existing structure representing the context. Metaphor comprehension is defined as the process of mapping input metaphors onto connected conceptual representations. A model of metaphor comprehension is defined as the set of processes required to interpret elements of linguistic input which semantically mismatch their linguistic context. The mismatching elements are referred to as the vehicle of the metaphor while the linguistic context is known as the topic of the metaphor. 2. BUILDING A MODEL OF METAPHOR COMPREHENSION For the purposes of describing the model only sentences which contain both the vehicle
