日语作为外语的学习者在写作中经常会出现一些不符合其语境风格的词汇。一个可能的原因是现有词典中缺乏关于词的含义和用法标签的信息。本研究考察了日语学习词典、日语词典和同义词词典中的内涵信息和语域标注的现状,并提出了一种可能的词语描述分析方法。研究发现,日语学习词典和日语本族语词典使用不同的语域标签,并从不同的角度分配。在同义词的情况下,在其使用的上下文中介绍它们似乎比仅仅列出它们更有用。最后,本文以现代书面语平衡语料库(BCCWJ - Gendai Nihongo Kakikotoba Kinkoo Koopasu)为例,说明语料库是词汇语域分析的重要语言资源。
Writing by learners of Japanese as a foreign language often contains words that do not fit the style of their context. One possible reason for this is the lack of information on word connotation and usage labels in existing dictionaries. The present study examines the current state of connotational information and register labels in Japanese learner’s dictionaries, Japanese language dictionaries and dictionaries of synonyms, and proposes a possible technique for analysing the words’ descriptions. The study reveals that Japanese learner’s dictionaries and dictionaries for Japanese native speakers use different register labels and assign them from a different perspective. In the case of synonyms, presenting them in their context of use appears to be more useful than only listing them. Finally, the Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese (BCCWJ - Gendai Nihongo Kakikotoba Kinkoo Koopasu) is used to show how corpora can be a very important linguistic resource for the analysis of lexical register.
