尼泊尔语中的禁忌语和委婉语
Linguistic Taboos and Euphemisms in Nepali
摘要:
世界各地的语言都有一些词语、短语和行为--禁忌--在公共交流中被避免,认为它们淫秽或扰乱社会的社会、宗教和道德价值观。然而,人们故意使用这些语言禁忌和其他语言结构来做出伤害,贬损和淫秽的评论。要建立一套通用的冒犯性或禁忌性术语几乎是不可能的,因为冒犯性完全由不同的因素决定,如社会物理环境、说话者和听众的关系以及词汇选择。在本文中,我们提出了一个详细的语料库为基础的研究在尼泊尔语的攻击性语言。我们确定并描述了超过18种不同类别的语言冒犯,包括政治,宗教,种族和性别。我们讨论了12种常见的委婉语,如同义词、隐喻和迂回。此外,我们介绍了一个手动构建的数据集,超过1000个进攻和禁忌的条款流行的当代扬声器。对攻击性语言和资源的深入研究将为攻击性语言检测和语言学习等下游任务提供基础。
英文摘要:
Languages across the world have words, phrases, and behaviors -- the taboos -- that are avoided in public communication considering them as obscene or disturbing to the social, religious, and ethical values of society. However, people deliberately use these linguistic taboos and other language constructs to make hurtful, derogatory, and obscene comments. It is nearly impossible to construct a universal set of offensive or taboo terms because offensiveness is determined entirely by different factors such as socio-physical setting, speaker-listener relationship, and word choices. In this paper, we present a detailed corpus-based study of offensive language in Nepali. We identify and describe more than 18 different categories of linguistic offenses including politics, religion, race, and sex. We discuss 12 common euphemisms such as synonym, metaphor and circumlocution. In addition, we introduce a manually constructed data set of over 1000 offensive and taboo terms popular among contemporary speakers. This in-depth study of offensive language and resource will provide a foundation for several downstream tasks such as offensive language detection and language learning.
