摘要

本研究确定了学术界和媒体中与Covid-19相关的术语，并从话语动力学的角度追溯了其在20个月内的发展。跨语料库比较发现，两个语料库在使用与Covid-19相关的术语方面存在显著差异，从而表明两个社区对同一社会事件的特殊性。动态分析揭示了语料库中术语使用的非线性轨迹和专业语篇构建的演变发展模式。分析表明，术语的使用随着社会的变化而变化，这有助于我们理解术语发展的动态。在方法论上，本研究进一步证明了话语动态方法在分析社会事件的语言特征方面的可行性。

A discourse dynamics exploration of terminology for Covid-19 in professional and public discourse

Abstract This study identified terminology used in academia and media relating to Covid-19 and traced its development across 20 months from a discourse dynamics perspective. The cross-corpus comparison identified significant differences between the two corpora in the use of terminology relating to Covid-19, thereby signaling the particularities of the two communities towards the same social event. The dynamic analysis reveals a non-linear trajectory in the use of terminology in both corpora and an evolving developmental pattern in the construction of the specialized text. The analysis shows that the use of terminology evolves with social change, which can contribute to our understanding of the dynamics of terminology development. Methodologically, this study further demonstrates the viability of discourse dynamic approaches in analyzing the linguistic features of a social event.

期刊介绍： Terminology is an independent journal with a cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary scope. It focusses on the discussion of (systematic) solutions not only of language problems encountered in translation, but also, for example, of (monolingual) problems of ambiguity, reference and developments in multidisciplinary communication. Particular attention will be given to new and developing subject areas such as knowledge representation and transfer, information technology tools, expert systems and terminological databases. Terminology encompasses terminology both in general (theory and practice) and in specialized fields (LSP), such as physics.
