摘要: 温觉是人类最基本的体验，由温觉引申出的隐喻映射是认知语言学研究的重要课题。本文旨在系统揭示汉英温觉词“(温)暖/warm”的隐喻映射模式及其异同成因，从认知语言学的视角出发，借助概念隐喻理论，系统梳理汉英温觉词“(温)暖/warm”基于身体认知的隐喻映射。研究发现，“(温)暖/warm”可共同映射至态度域、关系域、心理域、色彩域与行为域，同时还存在各自特有的隐喻映射个性，但共性大于个性且个性映射呈不对称分布的格局。汉英温觉词“(温)暖/warm”的隐喻映射之所以同异并存，可以从认知、语言、文化与环境四个层面加以阐释，研究丰富了温觉词隐喻对比研究的图景，凸显了具身经验在概念建构中的作用。
Abstract: Temperature perception is one of the most fundamental human experiences, and the metaphorical mappings derived from it constitute a significant topic in cognitive linguistics. This paper aims to systematically reveal the metaphorical mapping patterns of the Chinese and English temperature terms “(wen) nuan/warm”, as well as their similarities and differences, by adopting a cognitive linguistic perspective and applying Conceptual Metaphor Theory to analyze the body-based metaphorical mappings of these terms. The study finds that both “(wen) nuan” and “warm” can be mapped onto domains such as attitude, relationship, psychology, color, and behavior, while each also exhibits unique metaphorical characteristics. However, commonalities outweigh individual differences, and the domain mappings of “(wen) nuan/warm” generally show an asymmetric distribution pattern. The coexistence of similarities and differences in the metaphorical mappings of these terms across Chinese and English can be explained at four levels: cognition, language, culture, and environment. This research enriches the landscape of comparative studies on temperature-related metaphors and highlights the role of embodied experience in conceptual formation.
