Abstract|摘要
當代新聞與社群媒體的語境中,女性經常面臨許多隱喻式的障礙,例如「玻璃天花板」(glass ceiling)和近年提出的「玻璃懸崖」(glass cliff),這些隱喻不僅形塑了女性在業界的晉升與留任困境,也反映出深層的社會現象。這引發了一個重要問題:我們日常語言中源於「戰爭」(WAR)或「播種」(PLANT)等概念隱喻,是否同樣蘊含性別意義?本演講將探討這一命題,並參考近期研究成果,透過本體論框架(ontological frameworks)與搭配詞分析(collocational analysis)來檢視這些隱喻在語言中的使用情況(Ahrens & Jiang, 2020; Ahrens et al., 2024)。此外,講者將深入剖析女性在政治領域中如何運用隱喻策略,並探討這些性別化隱喻如何影響女性在不同領導環境中的定位與發展。

Abstract|摘要
本講座聚焦於語料庫語言學(Corpus Linguistics, CL)在研究工作場所口語言談及跨文化專業溝通中的應用與方法論發展。傳統上,語料庫語言學的研究多集中於書面文本的分析,但本次講座的重點轉向對口語特徵的探討,包括韻律與語音元素。講者將展示方法論的進步如何支持對更複雜語言現象的深入研究,特別是在真實語境中的應用。講者還將探討如何開發、建構及註釋與職場話語相關的專門語料庫,並聚焦於跨文化專業溝通所面臨的挑戰與機遇。講者結合既有的語料庫語言學方法與計算方法,提出了一種結合量化語料分析與質性話語詮釋的迭代研究模型。其應用面向包含在客服中心的應答(Friginal, 2009, 2023)、航空業無線電話的通訊(Friginal, Mathews, & Roberts, 2019),及輔助溝通系統使用者(AAC)於工作領域上的對談(Light & McNaughton, 2022;Pickering et al., 2019)。
此外,講者將介紹最新的人工智慧(AI)與自然語言處理(NLP)技術,探討其如何革新語料庫開發及應用方式,進而影響語言研究的範疇與方法。講者特別提出了一種整合定量語料分析與定性話語詮釋的迭代研究模型,旨在為語料庫語言學研究提供更全面且精緻的視角。這場講座將為專業溝通、跨文化溝通、應用語言學及專業英語(English for Specific Purposes, ESP)等領域的研究人員與及相關業者帶來更深入地探究及增加學術研究的能量。
