本文探讨了偏好语义学(PS)与不良形式的关系,以及偏好语义学与隐喻的关系。区分了两类“优惠”,即声明性和程序性优惠。PS框架检查方面的概念,良好的和不良的形式,和两个标准的不良的形式进行了区分,这两个都拥有的PS:一个绝对的标准,对应于传统的概念,良好的和不良的形式,和一个相对的标准,不。的策略和语义表示,他们所产生的比较关于他们的对应人类的理解(诚然肤浅的PS表示的浅薄)和他们的能力,以产生正确的句子翻译。我们的结论是,由于许多个人和扩展隐喻的歧义,两大类隐喻表征策略是必要的。一个控制机制,使用这两种主要类型的策略,并允许暂时的语义表示的隐喻歧义。
This paper is about the relationships between Preference Semantics (PS) and ill-formedness, and between Preference Semantics and metaphor. Two types of "preference", declarative and procedural, are distinguished. The PS framework is examined with respect to notions of well- and ill-formedness, and two criteria for ill-formedness are distinguished, both of which are possessed by PS: an absolute criterion that corresponds to conventional notions of well- and ill-formedness, and a relative criterion that does not.Four possible strategies are described for representing ill-formed input in general, and metaphors in particular. The strategies and the semantic representations produced by them are compared regarding their correspondence to human understanding (admittedly superficial given the shallowness of the PS representation) and their ability to produce correct sentence translations. We conclude that, because of the ambiguity of many individual and extended metaphors, two broad types of metaphor representation strategy are needed. A control mechanism is described that uses both these major types of strategy and that permits the temporary semantic representation of metaphorical ambiguity.
