英漢昵稱情感表達方式的語用探究

摘要
親昵稱謂，又叫昵稱、愛稱，是用來表示喜愛、親昵的稱呼，是龐大的稱謂語家族的一個分支，是貫穿在交際活動中的一個非常重要的因素。每種語言中的稱呼形式都反映了說話的人和被稱呼的人的社會特征,也反映了他們之間的關系。漢英文化各自傳承著自己的歷史，經過漫長的歷史洗刷和積淀，各自張揚著迥異的文化個性。中西方文化存在很多不同之處，在情感表達方式上更是天壤之別。中國是含蓄并溫和，西方是直接并強烈。兩種文化的情感表達方式都綻放出自身的文化魅力。昵稱文化就是其中新生文化現(xiàn)象的一個方面，因此英漢昵稱的語用研究也成為解讀英漢個性文化的獨特視角。
這篇文章試圖從語用角度對昵稱及其的情感表達方式進行探究，主要涉及昵稱的分類，昵稱的形式，昵稱與文化，昵稱的情感透視，以及昵稱在情感語用世界中的變體這一新興語言現(xiàn)象。從此角度研究英漢昵稱，不僅可以弘揚傳統(tǒng)文化，增進彼此了解，而且對促進文化交流具有重要的現(xiàn)實意義。
