摘要在所有的语义领域中,颜色词吸引了最多的关注,特别是从类型学的角度来看。然而,还有更多的东西有待发现。非洲语言(RefLex)的跨语言词汇数据库的搜索揭示了一些以前未被发现的区域colexification模式和共享的词汇结构模式在遗传平衡的样本401种语言。本文阐述了颜色词的几个地域性特征:(1)地域性特征在语言外环境中的传播(刺槐豆- Parkia biglobosa -作为黄色的词汇来源);(ii)两种聚合现象,一种基于共享的词汇构建模式,包括一个用于水的术语,另一种基于共享的共词化(红色和成熟与绿色和不成熟);(iii)一个区域模式的词汇扩散的颜色表意文字,一个类别,迄今被认为是难以借用。
Abstract Of all the semantic domains, colour terms have attracted the largest amount of attention, notably from a typological point of view. However, there is much more to be discovered. A search of the cross-linguistic lexical database of African languages (RefLex) reveals several previously undetected areal colexification patterns and shared lexico-constructional patterns in a genetically balanced sample of 401 languages. In this paper, we illustrate several areal characteristics of colour terms: (i) the spread of an areal feature due to a common extra-linguistic setting (locust bean – Parkia biglobosa – as the lexical source of yellow); (ii) two convergence phenomena, one based on a shared lexico-constructional pattern including a term for water, and one based on shared colexifications (red and ripe vs. green and unripe); and (iii) an areal pattern of lexical diffusion of colour ideophones, a category which has thus far been considered difficult to borrow.
