Abstract

What is the Meaning of B(b)oer in 2022? This article investigates the meaning of the words Boer and boer in Afrikaans. The study is the result of an incident in 2015 when the Afrikaans Language Commission considered the possibility of omitting the word Boer from the Afrikaanse woordelys en spelreëls. The rationale was that other race sensitive items, such as hotnot, kaffer and koelie, had been scrapped from the word list long ago. The proposal to omit Boer created havoc. In the following discussion, the encyclopaedic approach to meaning is used to determine what Boer and boer currently mean. An investigation into the lexical meaning of these two words is supplemented by highlighting one of the assumptions of the encyclopaedic approach to meaning, namely that encyclopaedic knowledge is dynamic in nature and furthermore that meaning is always constructed in the context of use. The current day use and meanings of Boer and boer are indicated via examples from newspaper articles, literary texts, lyrics, a brand name as well as the corpus of the Language Commission. A radiating lattice diagram for the words Boer and boer is provided to show how the various meanings of the words are related to one another and how they form a polysemous semantic network. Keywords: boer, encyclopaedic approach, polysemy, radiating lattice diagram, semantics

2022年B（B）是什么意思？

2022年B(B) over意味着什么?本文探讨了布尔和布尔这两个词在南非荷兰语中的含义。这项研究是2015年南非荷兰语委员会考虑从南非荷兰语中删除“布尔”(Boer)一词的可能性的结果。省略布尔的提议造成了严重破坏。在接下来的讨论中，百科全书式的意义分析方法被用来确定布尔语和布尔语目前的含义。在对这两个词的词汇意义进行调查的同时，还强调了百科全书式的意义研究方法的一个假设，即百科全书式的知识本质上是动态的，而且意义总是在使用的语境中构建的。通过报纸文章、文学文本、歌词、品牌名称以及语言委员会的语料库中的例子，可以说明布尔语和布尔语的当前用法和含义。提供了单词Boer和Boer的辐射晶格图，以显示单词的各种含义如何相互关联以及它们如何形成多义词语义网络。关键词:波尔，百科全书式方法，一词多义，辐射格图，语义
