南华大学, 语言文学学院, 湖南衡阳 421001
| 摘 要： | 随着经济全球化的深入，国家之间的交流日益密切。语言作为世界各国沟通和交流的工具，发挥着重要作用。英语是世界通用语，汉语是世界上使用人口最多的语言之一。两种语言都具有重大影响力。近年来，女性地位有所提高，但不论是在网络上还是在社会生活中，性别歧视词语仍然层出不穷。英语和汉语中都存在性别歧视词语。本文以模因论为基础，从性别歧视构词模因，性别歧视词义模因和性别歧视词序模因三个方面探讨英语和汉语中性别歧视词语的产生、传播、崛起与消亡机制。英语和汉语中的性别歧视词语模因的形成与传播有共通之处，但也由于政治、经济和文化环境的不同而呈现出各自的特点。性别歧视构词模因、性别歧视词义模因和性别歧视词序模因的形成与传播受性别歧视观念的影响，性别歧视词语模因又会促使性别歧视观念的形成。基于模因的形成与传播机制，本文提出三个性别歧视词语模因的消弭策略：建立性别平等意识、阻断性别歧视词语模因的传播过程和加强性别平等教育。本研究旨在揭示英语和汉语中性别歧视词语模因的产生、传播、崛起和消亡机制，为中国和各国之间的友好交流扫除障碍，同时促进男女平等对话。 |

An Analysis of Sexist Words in English and Chinese from the Perspective of Memetics
School of Languages and Literature, University of South China, Hengyang 421001, China
| Abstract: | With the development of economic globalization, the exchanges between countries are getting more frequent than before. Language plays an important role as a tool for communication among countries. English is known as linguine franca, while Chinese is one of the most populous languages in the world. Both languages are hugely influential aroud the world. Nowadays, women's status has improved. However, whether on the Internet or in social life, sexist words still emerge endlessly. Sexist words exist in both English and Chinese. Based on memetics, this paper discusses the generation, spread, rise and extinction mechanism of sexist words in English and Chinese from three perspectives: sexist word formation meme, sexist meaning meme and sexist word order meme. The formation and spread of sexist word memes in English and Chinese have something in common, but they also bear their own characteristics due to the differences of political, economic and cultural environment. Sexist ideas and sexist word memes interact with each other. The formation of sexist word memes is influenced by sexist ideas, while sexist word memes will promote the formation of sexist ideas. Based on the formation and transmission mechanism of memes, the paper proposes three elimination strategies of sexist word memes: establishing gender equality awareness, blocking the transmission process of sexist memes and strengthening gender equality education. This paper aims to reveal the mechanism of the generation, spread, rise and extinction of sexist word memes in English and Chinese, so as to remove the obstacles for friendly exchanges between China and other countries, and promote equal communication between men and women. |
