A Comparative Analysis of the Modern Chinese “喝” and the Vietnamese “Uống”

摘要: “喝”与“uống”分别是现代汉语和越南语的餐饮用语和动词中最具国际代表性的，代表了中越两国的不同语言传统文化，千百年来中越两国有着很多的历史共同点，但由于自然地理环境的不同，使得两国文化也存在着一定的差异。本文通过对比现代汉语中的“喝”和越南语中的“uống”，深入探讨了两者在语义和用法上的异同。研究发现，这两个动词虽然在基本含义上相似，均表示液体摄入行为，但在表达方式、句法特征和语义范围上存在显著差异。本文还分析了这些差异反映的文化背景和语言结构差异，并揭示了它们在实际使用中的特定情境。研究结果对中越语言学习者理解和掌握这类动词的运用具有一定的指导意义。

Abstract: “Drink” and “uống” are the most internationally representative food terms and verbs in modern Chinese and Vietnamese, respectively, representing the different languages and traditional cultures of China and Vietnam. This article compares the modern Chinese word for “drink” and the Vietnamese word for “uống”, and delves into the similarities and differences in semantics and usage. The study found that although the two verbs were similar in basic meaning, both denoting the act of liquid ingestion, there were significant differences in expression, syntactic features, and semantic range. The paper also analyzes the cultural background and linguistic structural differences reflected by these differences, and reveals the specific contexts in which they are used in practice. The results of this study have certain guiding significance for Chinese and Vietnamese language learners to understand and master the use of such verbs.
