Abstract
The two sides of the Taiwan Strait have common ancestors and blood relations. The language and literature of both sides of the Strait are connected. Due to the reasons of history and geography, and long-term barrier, there are many differences in politics, economy, culture, education, social life, view, area culture, customs, etc, which are clearly reflected in the language practices. We chose a 302,939-character corpus from People’s Daily and United Daily News and analyzed the differences of cross-Strait news comments. We examined multiple language features, and concluded that the complexity and written register of People’s Daily are slightly higher, and United Daily News has a slightly richer vocabulary, more flexible language style, and more communicative language of the everyday. The subjective emotions of the writers of United Daily News are more intense, and sentences with emotional expressions are used to express their opinions and comments.
提要
海峡两岸, 同宗同源, 文脉相承, 血脉相连。但是, 由于历史地理等的原因和长时期的阻隔, 两岸在政治经济、文化教育、社会生活、思想观念、区域文化、风俗人情和外来影响等方面形成了一定的差异, 这些差异鲜明地体现在大陆普通话与台湾“国语”之间。文章从大陆《人民日报》和台湾《联合报》各提取302939字的语料, 借鉴Biber多特征语言分析方法, 对海峡两岸新闻评论语言进行了多角度的对比分析。通过考察多项语言特征, 并对其进行功能性解释。总体而言, 《人民日报》语言单位的复杂性和书面化程度相对略高;《联合报》的词汇丰富程度略高, 语言更灵活多样、更趋日常生活交际用语, 其撰写者的主观情感流露更浓烈, 更善用富有情感表达的句子发表言论以及进行评论分析。
