江西理工大学本科毕业论文TheDifferencesofAddressFormsinEnglishandChineseandtheirCultureConnotation学院:TheFacultyofForeignStudy专业:English班级:Class071学生姓名:指导教师:江西理工大学2011届本科生毕业设计(论文)1摘要称谓语是发话人用来称呼交际对方的用语,它是一种语言现象,但其功能远不仅如此。称谓语的使用,反应出特定的社会现象和文化内涵。中国拥有五千多年的悠久历史,中国发展至今,保留着大量的称谓语,这些称谓语都反应了一个时代的特征和文化内涵。如今,随着中国的对外开放以及加入WTO,中国与外界的联系也越来越密切、深入、广泛。同时,中国的现代化发展也使中国在国际上的地位日渐提高,影响力逐渐扩大,全世界开始关注中国,并开始研究和学习中国语言。然而英语仍然是世界通用语言,大多数的发达国家都是英语系国家,因此我们很有必要学习其先进的文化、知识和技术。本文通过收集、归纳中英称谓语,研究和学习中英称谓语的差异,分析其反映的文化内涵,从而达到学习双方文化的目的,利于双方文化交流沟通。关键词:称谓语;差异;文化内涵江西理工大学2011届本科生毕业设计(论文)2AbstractAddressformsarethelanguagesusedbythespeakerstocalltheotherpeopleofaconversation.Theyarethephenomenaoflanguage,buttheyhavemuchmorefunctions.Addressformsreflecttheparticularsocialphenomenonandcultureconnotation.Chinahasalonghistoryofmorethan5000years.Tillnow,thereexistagreatnumberofaddressforms.Theseaddressformsallreflectthecharacteristicsofanageandthecultureconnotation.Nowadays,withtheChineseopeningtotheoutsideandjoiningintoWTO,itrelateswiththeoutsideworldmoreclosely,moredeeply,morecomprehensively,atthemeantime,thedevelopmentofChinesemodernizationimprovesChinesestatusgraduallyovertheworld,andChineseinfluencesbecomewider.AllthecountriesovertheworldstarttopayattentiontoChina,andstarttostudyandlearnChineselanguage.ButEnglishisstillthecommonusedlanguageovertheworld,andthelanguageofthemostdevelopedcountriesisEnglish.Soitsquitenecessaryforustolearntheiradvancedcultures,knowledge,technologies.ThisthesisfocusoncollectingtheaddressformsofEnglishandChinese,studyingandlearningthedifferences,andanalyzingthecultureconnotationreflectedinthem.Soastoreachthegoaloflearningtheculturesofbothsides,andmaketheexchangingandcommunicationsofdifferentculturesmoreconveniently.Keywords:Addressforms;Differences;Cultureconnotation江西理工大学2011届本科生毕业设计(论文)3ChapterIIntroductionLanguageisacarrierofculture,anditalsoreflectsonecountrysculturalcharacteristics.Addressformisanelementoflanguageandaveryimportantbaseofcommunication.Itsproperuseisthefoundationofmaintainingpeoplesconvenientcommunication.WiththedevelopmentoftheworldandtherisingofChina,thecommunicationsbetweentheculturesofChinaandwesterncountriesbecomemoreandmore.HowtoresearchandstudytheproperuseofaddressformswillplayanimportantroleinthecommunicationsbetweentheChinesecultureandwesternculture.Atpresent,lotsofexpertsandscholarshavestudiedthetopicandmanybooksandpapershavewrittenthetopic,theseworksaremainlyemphasizingontheaddressformsinChineseandEnglish,andthedifferencesbetweentwolanguages.Theseworksarecomprehensiveandtheyhaveachievedgreatsuccesses.Thistopicinthisthesisarebasedonpredecessorsworks,andthepurposeofwritingthisthesisistoraisemyownviewsandideasonaddressforms.Besidesthepredecessorsworks,thisthesiswillalsoraisethegeneralizationandwesternizationofChineseforms.Thedevelopmentofsocietybringspeoplenewideaandnewmind,andlotsoftraditionaladdressformschangetheiroriginalmeaningswiththetimegoing.Also,withtherapidproccedingofInternetandinformationtech,alotofnewaddressformshavebeencreatedandusedinourdailylife.Meanwhile,afterChinasentryintoWTO,culturesofwesterncountriesflowintoChinaandaffectevenimpactChinesecultureandpeoplesmind,peoplestarttoadjusttheirlifeincludingaddressformstoaccordwiththeinternationalstandards.SoitisquitenecessarytoanalysethephenomenaofgeneralizationandwesternizationofChineseaddressforms,andfindouttheorigin.Itwillhelpustounderstandourownhistoryandculture,thentheworld.江西理工大学2011届本科生毕业设计(论文)4ChapterIIThedefinitionofaddressformandthefunctions2.1.DefinitionAccordingtotheexplanationinModernChineseDictionary,addressformreferstothenamesbasedonthekinshiporotherrelationsamongthepeopleandpeoplesstatusesandprofessions.Addressformreflectslanguage,anditalsoreflectsthesocialcultures.Inanylanguages,addressformplaysanimportantroleinsocialintercourses.Thetheoryofsociolinguisticsputsthattheuseofaddressformshouldbelimitedintheframeofethnicculture.Andtheaddressformdependsontherelationsofsimilarityordissimilarity,therelationsofascendance,coherencerelationsandotherrelations.Itshouldproperlyrecognizetherelationsamongtherolesinparticularsituations.Itshouldalsoobeythebehavioralnormsofspeechrolesexpectedbythesociety.Addressformcanbepartedintwobranches:kinshipaddressformandsocialaddressform.2.2.FunctionsIninterpersonalcommunications,addressformsconsistofthreeaspects:addressformsforbothsidesofcommunication,addressformsforspeakersown,andaddressformsforothers.JoshuaFishmanraisedthetheoryofregisterintheresearchofsociolinguistics.Heputtheuseofaddressformsintofiveregisters:familyregister,friendregister,religionregister,educationregister,workregister.Fishmanconsidersthatpeoplecanchoosetheaddressformsindifferentsituationsbasedonthefiveregisters.Theauthorthinksthatthefunctionsofaddressformsaretomaintainthecoherenceofspeechesandclearanceofmeaningsandtomakethepropagationsofinformationbetweencommunicativesidesmorefluentlyandconveniently.Thefeaturesareasfollowing:(1)Addressformshelptobuildnewhumanrelations,expressthewilltogetclose,orjustbeusedasanaddressforms,orexpressthewilltobeaw
