时间是一个复杂而又重要的问题。结构主义语言学通过历时与共时的区分集中研究结构(空间),从而消解语言的时间维度。其实,要认知语言的本质,就必须在语言研究的过程中恢复时间这一重要维度。文章提出并初步论证名词的语义中存在时间因素,以此为语言中时间因素的进一步研究奠定基础。 Time is a complex and important issue. Structuralist linguistics focuses on the structure (space) through the diachronic and synchronic distinctions, thus dissolving the temporal dimension of language. In fact, to recognize the essence of language, we must restore the important dimension of time in the process of linguistic research. The article puts forward and preliminarily argues that there is a time factor in the semantics of nouns, which lays the foundation for the further study of the time factor in language.
