认知语言学提出语言与人的认知能力有着密切的相关性和系统性,强调人的经验和认知能力在语义解释中的作用。比喻是人们头脑中相似的表象联想。一方面,面对相同的物质世界,中日两国人民有着相似或相同的认知能力,因此,在中日两种语言中,存在完全对应或基本上对应的比喻表达;另一方面,由于语言体系、自然环境、文化背景方面,中日两国人民对于世界的认知又是不同的。 Cognitive linguistics proposes that language and cognition are closely related and systematic, emphasizing the role of human experience and cognitive ability in semantic interpretation. Metaphor is a similar representation in the minds of people. On the one hand, in the same material world, people in China and Japan have similar or identical cognitive abilities. Therefore, in the two languages ​​of China and Japan, there is an expression of parable that corresponds exactly or basically to the other. On the other hand, Language system, natural environment and cultural background, the awareness of the world between the two peoples is different again.
