对隐喻语言的研究已经表明抽象性和情感性之间的联系，就隐喻性而言;然而，以前的工作仅限于单词和句子层面，到目前为止，还没有实证研究建立在话语层面上也是如此的程度。本文探讨了人类注释者认为哪些文本和感知特征对话语和表达的隐喻性很重要，并更具体地解决了两个研究问题。第一，隐喻感知的语篇是否比字面感知的语篇更抽象、更情绪化？第二，一个隐喻性的表达之前是一个更隐喻/抽象/情感的上下文比一个同义的字面选择？我们使用了一个由1,000个语料库提取的话语组成的数据集，众包的注释者（1）提供了他们认为话语更隐喻还是更字面的判断，（2）系统地列出了触发他们在（1）中做出决定的词汇术语。我们的研究结果表明，隐喻语篇比字面语篇更具有情感性，在一定程度上也更抽象。然而，无论是隐喻性还是前面话语的抽象性和情感性似乎都没有在触发同义隐喻还是字面表达之间的选择方面发挥作用。我们的数据集可以在https://www.ims.uni-stuttgart.de/data/discourse-met-lit上找到。
Research on metaphorical language has shown ties between abstractness and emotionality with regard to metaphoricity; prior work is however limited to the word and sentence levels, and up to date there is no empirical study establishing the extent to which this is also true on the discourse level. This paper explores which textual and perceptual features human annotators perceive as important for the metaphoricity of discourses and expressions, and addresses two research questions more specifically. First, is a metaphorically-perceived discourse more abstract and more emotional in comparison to a literally- perceived discourse? Second, is a metaphorical expression preceded by a more metaphorical/abstract/emotional context than a synonymous literal alternative? We used a dataset of 1,000 corpus-extracted discourses for which crowdsourced annotators (1) provided judgements on whether they perceived the discourses as more metaphorical or more literal, and (2) systematically listed lexical terms which triggered their decisions in (1). Our results indicate that metaphorical discourses are more emotional and to a certain extent more abstract than literal discourses. However, neither the metaphoricity nor the abstractness and emotionality of the preceding discourse seem to play a role in triggering the choice between synonymous metaphorical vs. literal expressions.
