초록
This article is a development of Hoey’s (2005) claim that each sense of a polysemic word behaves differently with regard to its collocations and colligations. If one sense used the primings of another, the result would be either humour or a change of meaning. This article, however, pinpoints an exception, which are polysemes with literal and metaphoric senses. A corpus-based case study of three such words, called lexical metaphors, presents strong evidence that the metaphoric senses of these lexemes are actually primed to inherit, rather than avoid, some of the contextual traits of the literal sense. This study examines the collocations and colligations of a polysemous noun (flavour), a verb (pepper) and an adjective (pregnant), using the British National Corpus for evidence.
Abstract
This article is a development of Hoey’s (2005) claim that each sense of a polysemic word behaves differently with regard to its collocations and colligations. If one sense used the primings of another, the result would be either humour or a change of meaning. This article, however, pinpoints an exception, which are polysemes with literal and metaphoric senses. A corpus-based case study of three such words, called lexical metaphors, presents strong evidence that the metaphoric senses of these lexemes are actually primed to inherit, rather than avoid, some of the contextual traits of the literal sense. This study examines the collocations and colligations of a polysemous noun (flavour), a verb (pepper) and an adjective (pregnant), using the British National Corpus for evidence.
