Paraphrase

释义句

 

A term used in linguistics for the result or process of producing alternative versions of a sentence or text without changing the meaning. One sentence may have several paraphrases, e.g. The dog is eating a bone, A bone is being eaten by the dog, It’s the dog who is eating a bone, and so on. Most semantic theories would treat all these sentences as having a single semantic representation (though variations in focus and presupposition could differentiate them). Linguists use syntactic paraphrase as a major procedure for establishing certain types of transformational relations.

 

语言学用来指不改变一个句子或篇章的意义而变换其措辞形式的结果或过程。一个句子可以有多个释义句,例如The dog is eating a bone“狗在啃一块骨头”,A bone is being eaten by the dog“有一块骨头狗正在啃”,It’s the dog who is eating a bone“正在啃一块骨头的是那条狗”等等。大多数语义学理论认为这些句子有一个共同的语义束征式(尽管可用焦点和预设来区别)。语言学家将句法释义作为一个重要手段来确立某些类型的转换关系。
