许多语言学家认为文化和语言结构之间没有联系。这项研究回顾了一些支持词汇连接的文献,其他连接的假设,以及对这类假设的批评观点。准确地说,这种联系是运用功能语言学和语法化原则建立的。使用49种语言的世界范围内的概率样本,对文化和指示语的语法编码之间的联系进行了检验,并在统计上发现在很大程度上得到了证实。文中还就如何推广本研究中使用和发展的一些概念提出了建议。
Many linguists have believed that there is no connection between culture and language structures. This study reviews some of the literature supporting vocabulary connections, hypotheses for other connections, and critical views of this type of hypothesis. Precisely such a connection is developed employing a functional view of language and grammaticization principles. Using a world-wide probability sample of forty-nine languages, an association between culture and the grammatical coding of deictics is tested and statistically found to be corroborated to a very significant extent. Suggestions are included on how some of the concepts used and developed in this study might be extended.
