摘要：

指类句是指明一类事物某一特征的句子。指类句的工作定义是:以隐性全称判断的形式,相对于一定的语用需要,为指明一类事物的某一特征而作出的特设判断。有些指类句存在反例,而指类句的特点是容忍反例。一个挑战性的问题是:指类句为什么可以容忍处于矛盾关系的反例?这个问题的澄清,对于如何认识和刻画事物的特征和属性,进行规律性的陈述,至为重要,这些正是指类句研究的认知-语用意蕴。

关键词: 指类句, 容忍反例, 认知-语用意蕴

Abstract:

A generic sentence (GS) is a statement denoting a particular feature of a class of things, which is realized in an ad hoc judgment expressed in the form of an implicit universal sentence about the particular trait of the class of things selected in relation to a certain pragmatic motivation. Counterexamples (C) may occur in a GS, and the C and the GS are in the relation of contradiction, thus arises a challenging question why the C can be tolerated in a GS. The clarification of the issue is of great importance to the understanding and description of the features and properties of things concerned as well as the capturing of their regularity, which points to the cognitive-pragmatic implications of such studies.
