摘要

在这篇文章中，我证明了在美拉尼西亚的语言中，骨是一种普遍存在的词汇-语义关联，但它的语言表达是高度多样化的;在表达骨骼和力量之间的联系时，语言沿着词汇到小句的渐变分布，在美拉尼西亚观察到大量基于这种联系的语言特定成语。我认为，这种词汇-语义关联的惊人现实在词汇语义类型学的自顶向下方法中很容易被忽略，例如，依赖于单词列表数据库，或者局限于单一词汇意义的狭窄搜索域。

Baring the bones: the lexico-semantic association of bone with strength in Melanesia and the study of colexification

Abstract In this article I demonstrate that there is a pervasive lexico-semantic association bones are strength in the languages of Melanesia, but that its linguistic expression is highly varied; languages are scattered along a lexical-to-clausal cline in their expression of the association between bone and strength, with a large number of language-specific idioms based on the association to be observed in Melanesia. I argue that the striking areality of this lexico-semantic association is readily missed in top-down approaches to lexical semantic typology that rely, for instance, on databases of word lists, or on narrow search domains limited to the meanings of simplex lexemes.

期刊介绍： Linguistic Typology provides a forum for all work of relevance to the study of language typology and cross-linguistic variation. It welcomes work taking a typological perspective on all domains of the structure of spoken and signed languages, including historical change, language processing, and sociolinguistics. Diverse descriptive and theoretical frameworks are welcomed so long as they have a clear bearing on the study of cross-linguistic variation. We welcome cross-disciplinary approaches to the study of linguistic diversity, as well as work dealing with just one or a few languages, as long as it is typologically informed and typologically and theoretically relevant, and contains new empirical evidence.
