【摘要】：海事英语作为专门用途英语对促进人类的文化交流和各国的海事贸易往来变得不可缺少。由于海事英语本身的特殊性,作为有别于普通英语的更具工具性的语言,海事英语词汇有很强的专业特色。海事英语中的多义词现象,即在普通英语有着熟知的普通意义的单词,在海事英语中却有着完全不同的专业上的意义,是这一特色的重要组成部分。本文选取海事英语常见的多义词作为研究对象。作者搜集相关数据,自建200万字语料库,并运用BNC普通英语语料库作为对比语料库,从词汇学、语义学及语料库语言学角度对海事英语常见的多义词进行分析,并揭示其特点。通过研究分析其分布、词义、词源、搭配及类联接。得出海事英语常见的多义词具有以下特点:1.海事英语和普通英语中多义词的分布不同。动词性多义词在海事英语预料库中出现频数极低,普通英语语料库中的高频名词性多义词,除pin、jacket、lock和rack外,在海事英语语料库中使用频数也较高。2.海事英语中多义词的词义多与航海、轮机、航运相关,属于科技英语词汇。3.在所研究的目标词中,大多数多义词源于古法语和拉丁语。4.海事英语中多义词多与具有海事相关词义的词搭配。5.海事英语中动词性多义词的类联接型式多为动宾结构,名词性多义词多与介词和修饰词构成类联接。本研究有助于海事英语的学习以及英语词典的编写。
