本文运用认知识解理论对英语形名结构的静态组合关系进行探讨,发现认知主体在采用形容词修饰名词时,会运用范畴、视角、突显、详略度等不同识解维度。如此,一方面形容词对所计量名词起着范畴定位功能;另一方面当形容词和名词组合时,名词的各种特质角色常得到形容词语义特性激活而突显。此外,英民族在运用形容词修饰名词时,常带有一定视角倾向。

This paper uses cognitive theory to discuss the static combination of the English name structure. It is found that when using adjectives to modify nouns, cognitive agents apply different dimensions of understanding, such as category, perspective, prominence, and detail. In this way, on the one hand, the adjective plays a category orientation function to the measured noun; on the other hand, when the adjective and the noun are combined, the various trait characters of the noun are often highlighted by the activation of the semantic properties of the adjective. In addition, the British nation in the use of adjectives modified nouns, often with a certain perspective.
