汉字是表意文字,在更大程度上跟它所代表的客观对象之间具有性质上的象似性。以早期汉字形体(主要是甲骨文)为例,打通传统“六书”分类法的界限,汉字构形总体上具有形象象似、标记象似、数量象似三种类型。文字层面象似性的论证在一定程度上丰富了语言象似性理论,在汉字的构形中认知发挥了主体作用。 Chinese characters are ideographic characters, to a greater extent, they are of the same nature as the objective objects they represent. Taking the early Chinese character (mainly Oracle) as an example, we can break the line of the traditional “Six-book” taxonomy. Generally speaking, the Chinese character has three types: image icon, label icon and number icon. The demonstration of pictorial iconicity enriches the linguistic iconicity theory to a certain extent, and cognition plays a dominant role in the formation of Chinese characters.
