| dc.description.abstract | The Hakkas in Taiwan and other ethnic groups are not only different in language, but also culturally and cognitively. Of course, the living environment and life experience are different. Does it create a difference in vocabulary between Hakka and other ethnic groups? The life experience depends on the human senses, such as sight, hearing, taste, smell, touch, and the human body can directly feel the human things in the surrounding environment. However, vocabulary about body parts often uses the understanding of metaphor and metonymy concepts to convey the way of thinking and feeling. ‘’Metaphor’’ plays an important role in rhetoric. It is ubiquitous in everyday language, linguistics, philosophy, education, and is one of the most commonly used rhetoric methods. Traditionally, people’s understanding of metaphor is often limited to the rhetoric of language.However,in 1980, George Lakoff and Mark Johnson put forward different views in the book《Metaphor We Live By》. They believe that the key to truly determining language metaphor lies in thinking and culture in life. Pi-Jung Huang (2010) pointed out that the concept represented by body words is the meta-concept of the human cognitive world, occupying the foundation and core position in the vocabulary system. Therefore, this thesis is based on the most familiar body and explores the conceptual metaphor of the vocabulary related to body parts.
Feng-Fu Huang、Li-Chung Tsai、Hsiu-Ying Liu(2001) and Yu(2002) researched the metaphorical phenomena of body parts, which classify all corpus according to the body parts as the external, inner and abstract parts of the body, and mainly discusses the inner (invisible) part of the body, in addition to the inner ＂heart＂, ＂liver＂, ＂intestine＂ and ＂gall bladder ＂ of the body, this thesis also discusses ＂ The metaphor and metonymy of ＂belly＂ in Hakka dialect has the special expression of container metaphorical space, in addition to the use of body parts to ＂belly＂ metaphor as ＂inside and within＂ the concept of azimuth, it is worth in-depth discussion. Finally, the cognitive thinking of the ancestors ′ words is discussed by using the method of lexical inversion, and cognitive thinking can be reflected in the vocabulary. Use specific descriptions to express abstract ideas, with body parts and organs as a specific description, point out the organs abstractly to express the emotion and character.
