Введение диссертации2005 год, автореферат по филологии, Мозжухин, Кирилл Евгеньевич

В настоящее время лингвистика уделяет повышенное внимание проблемам нестандартной речи, изучению ее особенностей и характерных черт в связи с тем, что в современном языке наблюдается широкое распространение сленга. Сленг является, пожалуй, наиболее противоречивой частью нестандартной речи, и английский язык здесь не является исключением. Это и определило предмет настоящего исследования -морфологические и лексико-семантические особенности современного сленга американских студентов. Изучением этого лингвистического явления занимались и продолжают заниматься многие видные ученые: Э. Партридж, С.Б. Флекснер, Дж.Е. Лайтер, X. Менкен, К. Эбл, В.А. Хомяков, А.Д. Швейцер, И.Р. Гальперин, М.М. Маковский, Ю.К. Волошин и другие. Особенность сленга заключается в его "открытости, незамкнутости по отношению к другим сферам общенационального языка" и в том, что "элементы этой лексики входят в жаргоны, арго, просторечие" [Скворцов, с. 16].

Объектом данного исследования является сленг, употребляемый в речи студентами Калифорнийского университета, Сан-Диего, США.

Целью данного исследования является изучение характерных особенностей современного американского сленга, употребляемого студентами Калифорнийского университета в городе Сан-Диего, США (UCSD), на лексическом материале статей студенческой газеты "The Koala", издаваемой в данном вузе. Редколлегия данной газеты целиком состоит из студентов университета, которые сами употребляют сленг; в ней в достаточном количестве присутствуют разнообразные сленгизмы; язык газеты максимально приближен к устной разговорной речи, где единицы сленга используются в реальном общении; газета доступна, можно проанализировать целый ряд номеров, выпущенных в течение последних нескольких лет. Таким образом, данную газету целесообразно использовать для изучения и анализа современного американского студенческого сленга. Нами был проанализирован целый ряд других американских студенческих газет на предмет возможности их использования в качестве достоверных источников современного американского студенческого сленга, однако их использование оказалось нецелесообразным ввиду практически полного отсутствия в них сленговой лексики.

Поставленная цель предполагает решение ряда специфических задач, к числу которых относятся следующие:

- выявить характерные черты сленга, позволяющие отделить его как от смежных с ним лексических пластов, так и от литературного языка;

- проанализировать лексический состав сленга американских студентов с целью выявления в нем элементов специального университетского и общего американского сленга;

- сгруппировать лексические единицы сленга в тематические группы, которые отражают сферы употребления современного американского студенческого сленга;

- проанализировать имеющийся лексический материал с точки зрения словообразования и выявить типичные способы образования сленгизмов в этом материале;

- показать, какие изменения в словарном составе студенческого сленга произошли за 18 лет с момента издания словаря "American Slang", исходя из утверждения о том, что сленг является наиболее подвижным пластом лексики.

Актуальность данного исследования обусловлена все возрастающим интересом лингвистов к исследованию различных аспектов сленга, который является частью разговорной речи английского языка. Ряд исследователей проводили и проводят изучение сленгов других социальных и возрастных групп, в основном, языков криминального мира, военных, а также общего американского сленга (А.Д. Швейцер, Ю.К. Волошин, Р. Чепмэн, Р. Спирс,

С.Б. Флекснер). Между тем, важно представлять себе современное состояние такой социально значимой и многочисленной части американского общества, какой являются студенты университетов и колледжей. В нашем исследовании мы предприняли попытку охарактеризовать основные черты лексики современного сленга, являющегося частью разговорной речи студентов Калифорнийского университета в городе Сан-Диего, США.

Научная новизна настоящего исследования заключается в том, что в работе впервые предпринята попытка анализа современной студенческой сленговой лексики в направлении от речи к языку с целью как можно точнее отразить реальную речевую ситуацию в американском варианте английского языка, в то время как большая часть исследований в области сленга, с которыми мы познакомились в ходе работы, проводилась на основе данных различных словарей, которые дают достаточно объективную картину, сложившуюся в языке, однако, к сожалению, не показывают, каким образом единицы сленга употребляются в реальных речевых ситуациях.

Материалом для данного исследования послужили около 400 статей из студенческой газеты "The Koala" (Калифорнийский университет). Чтобы получить более полное представление о предмете исследования, мы сочли уместным, помимо сленгизмов из статей "The Koala", использовать для анализа наиболее популярные сленговые слова и выражения, полученные нами в ходе непосредственного анкетирования студентов UCSD в 2000 году. В данной работе используются следующие методы исследования: сравнительно-сопоставительный (используется внутри одной языковой системы с целью сопоставления сленговой и литературной лексики английского языка), статистический, метод контекстуального анализа. Кроме того, для первичного сбора лексического материала использовался метод анкетирования, то есть метод лингвистического эксперимента.

В диссертации применяется следующая методика исследования. В ходе анализа статей газеты "The Koala" путем сплошной выборки были отобраны единицы сленга, которые прежде всего были объединены в * тематические группы, отражающие сферы коммуникации студентов носителей сленга.

Далее отобранные единицы сленга были проанализированы с точки зрения особенностей их образования. Словообразовательный анализ проводился на морфологическом и семантическом уровнях с целью выделения и характеристики наиболее активных и продуктивных способов образования сленгизмов.

Статистический анализ полученного лексического материала I проводился с целью выяснения количественного соотношения тематических групп, а также процентного соотношения различных видов словообразования в сленге.

Теоретическая значимость работы заключается в том, что в ней развивается и уточняется ряд положений, связанных с изучением неформальной разговорной лексики и сленга в современном английском языке. Выводы, сделанные в настоящей работе, могут служить материалом для проведения широкомасштабного сравнительного исследования речи американских студентов с целью определения тенденций развития студенческой сленговой лексики в США на современном этапе.

Практическую значимость работы определяют результаты анализа, которые могут быть использованы в теоретических курсах по лексикологии германских языков, в спецкурсах по словообразованию, фразеологии и стилистике современного английского языка, социологии и социолингвистике, а также в лексикографической практике при составлении словарей американского сленга.

Исходя из результатов проведенного исследования, на защиту выносятся следующие положения:

1. Сленг как лексический пласт обладает рядом характеристик, которые ^ дают возможность отделить его как от литературного языка, так и от смежных лексических пластов.

2. Сленг студентов американских вузов состоит из единиц общего (внеучебная лексика) и специального (учебная лексика) сленга.

3. Лексические единицы сленга студентов представлены рядом тематических групп, которые отражают различные стороны жизни университетского сообщества.

4. Образование новых лексических единиц в американском I студенческом сленге происходит теми же способами, что и в литературном английском языке.

5. Важную роль в создании сленгизмов на современном этапе языкового развития играет семантическое словообразование.

6. В сленге существует ядро, лексические единицы которого переходят от одного поколения говорящих к другому без изменения своих значений.

Апробация результатов исследования. Практические и теоретические материалы исследования использовались во время проведения семинаров по курсу "Лексикология английского языка" со студентами третьего курса Mill У. Имеются три публикации, отражающие основные положения диссертации.

 

Заключение научной работыдиссертация на тему "Сленг в речи студентов американских университетов"

Результаты исследования показали, что в лексико-семантическом словообразовании в сленге заметную роль играет метафора. Метафорический перенос значения происходит на основе сходства внешних характеристик, функций и аналогии, в большинстве случаев основанной на психологических ассоциациях между обозначаемыми явлениями. В каждом случае выделены признаки, на основе которых произошел метафорический перенос значения. Всего нами выделено 64 случая метафорического переноса значения, что составляет 9,32% от общего числа JIE, упомянутых в исследовании.

Помимо отдельных слов, в американском студенческом сленге присутствует большое количество фразеологических единиц (всего 95, что составляет 12,16% от общего числа сленгизмов в нашем исследовании). ФЕ разделены по семантическому признаку на фразеологические сращения и фразеологические единства. Количественно преобладают сращения - для них, как и для сленга в целом, характерна большая эмоциональная окрашенность, например, six ways from Sunday "in every possible manner"; to cut the mustard "to be able to do something requiring youth or vigor"; drop dead "unusually striking, sensational". Наиболее типичная модель образования ФЕ -"V+N" (to hit the books, to kick ass, to take the cake — всего 27 единиц). Больше всего фразеологических единиц выполняют функцию глагола (53 единицы). Среди ФЕ, как и в случае с JIE, на первом месте стоит подгруппа "Межличностные отношения".

Анализ изменений сленговой лексики за последние 18 лет, проведенный путем сопоставления значений сленгизмов, упомянутых в словаре "American Slang" (1987), и сленгизмов, использованных в нашем исследовании, показал, что 50,96% слов сохранили свои значения в современном сленге. 59 JIE (7,55% от общего числа) подверглись семантическим изменениям - приобрели конкретизированные или, наоборот, обобщенные значения, образовали новые значения в результате метафорического переноса.

ЗАКЛЮЧЕНИЕ

В проведенном диссертационном исследовании мы анализировали сленг в речи студентов американских университетов, в частности, Калифорнийского университета, который находится в городе Сан-Диего, США. Источником сленговой лексики являются статьи студенческой газеты "The Koala", издающейся в данном вузе.

Основные характеристики сленга дают возможность сформулировать следующее определение сленга: это исторически сложившийся нестандартный разговорный, подвижный и экспрессивно окрашенный слой лексики, носящий часто шутливый и грубоватый оттенок.

Отнесение лексических единиц к тому или иному пласту разговорной речи вызывает закономерные трудности, так как в последнее время наметилась тенденция расширения нормы английского языка в США, в результате чего фамильярно-разговорная лексика вошла в стандарт и стала нормативной, а сленг становится все более открытым, в результате чего все большее количество носителей языка употребляет сленг в своей речи. С этой проблемой сталкиваются составители словарей американского сленга, которые все чаще используют помету "informal" для обозначения тех слоев лексики, которые традиционно помечались как "slang" и "colloquial". Тем не менее, отобранный нами лексический материал удовлетворяет определению сленга, данного в теоретической главе работы, а многие лексические единицы упоминаются в современных словарях общего американского сленга.

Многие исследователи ставят знак равенства между понятиями "сленг" и "жаргон", однако мы считаем возможным говорить о совпадении понятий "специальный сленг" и "жаргон" в силу сходства их основных характеристик. Хотя для описания разговорной речи отдельных групп российского общества традиционно используется термин "жаргон", в последнее время он все чаще заменятся термином "сленг". Так, появились исследования и словари сленга российских компьютерщиков, наркоманов, молодежи.

Данное нами определение специального сленга сближает его с так называемыми вульгаризмами. Так как в нашем определении сленга отмечается его грубоватый оттенок и нестандартный характер, мы не видим оснований рассматривать вульгаризмы отдельно от сленга.

Среди причин популярности сленга среди студентов можно назвать то, что сленг создается прежде всего в молодежной среде и определяет принадлежность говорящего к той или иной группе, будь то молодежь в Ч> целом, студенческое сообщество или представители братства (fraternity) внутри студенческого коллектива. В отличие от других специальных сленгов, студенческий сленг - открытая, незамкнутая система, так как, с одной стороны, она вбирает в себя лексику жаргонов и других специальных сленгов, а с другой, наиболее популярные специальные сленгизмы становятся частью общего сленга.

В своем диссертационном исследовании мы анализировали сленг на материале студенческой газеты "The Koala". Мы отдаем себе отчет в том, что письменная речь не является типичной для сленга. Использование единиц сленга в газетной статье является отклонением от нормы и несет, как правило, стилистическую нагрузку. В целом ряде газет единицы сленга употребляются именно для создания стилистического эффекта, однако газета "The Koala" является исключением. Мы считаем большой удачей, что нам удалось найти студенческую газету, язык которой максимально приближен к устной разговорной речи, где единицы сленга используются так, как они употребляются в реальном общении, в устной речи.

Путем сплошной выборки из статей газеты "The Koala" были выделены единицы сленга, которые отражают либо учебную, либо внеучебную жизнь студентов, а, следовательно, относятся либо к специальному университетскому, либо к общему американскому сленгу. Учебная лексика, выделяющая студентов в отдельную социальную группу внутри американского общества, составляет специальный университетский сленг. Внеучебная лексика, связанная с бытовой и социальной жизнью студентов составляет общий американский сленг, присутствующий в речи большинства американцев. Так как лексика специального сленга создается и употребляется не только студентами, но и преподавателями, следует называть ее специальным университетским сленгом. При этом лексика общего сленга, как и следовало ожидать, употребляется в статьях газеты более широко и составляет большую часть анализируемой сленговой лексики студентов (около 96%).

Помимо материала газеты "The Koala" в диссертации используются результаты анкетирования, которое было проведено среди студентов Калифорнийского университета в Сан-Диего во время стажировки в США в 2000 году. В работе также широко используются данные современных словарей американского сленга (всего 12 словарей) для проверки и уточнения данных исследования.

Изучение лексики сленга проводилось с точки зрения ее тематики, способов словообразования и семантических изменений. Рассмотрение лексического материала с тематической точки зрения позволяет сделать вывод о том, что сленговая лексика студентов охватывает широкий круг тем. Так как наибольшее количество сленгизмов, употребляемых членами какой-либо группы, относится к темам, наиболее важным для членов данной группы, наиболее частотными в нашем лексическом материале стали следующие тематические подгруппы: "Отрицательное отношение к кому-ил и чему-либо" (81 сленгизм), "Наркотики" (67 сленгизмов) и "Алкогольные напитки" (56 сленгизмов). Можно утверждать, что именно такие тематические группы характерны для речи студентов Калифорнийского университета в Сан-Диего, однако в частном проявляются общие закономерности, поэтому можно утверждать, что данные тематические группы типичны для американских студентов в целом. В статьях газеты присутствует большое количество сленгизмов, относящихся к теме сексуальных отношений, однако они были исключены из рассмотрения. Сленговая лексика, связанная с учебой, отмечена в нашем материале более низкой частотностью, что закономерно, так как мы исследуем реальные речевые ситуации. Мы предполагаем, что данная тема не является частотной и среди студентов других американских вузов, однако мы не располагаем Ф точными данными, так как для этого необходимо провести исследование сленговой лексики студентов других вузов.

Студенческая сленговая лексика изобилует синонимами, так как сленг - это творчество. Каждое новое поколение носителей языка пытается выразить себя через язык, создавая новые единицы сленга, особенно в тех областях, которые по тем или иным причинам важны для современного общества. В результате такого словотворчества в сленге студентов, как показал анализ, можно констатировать наличие развернутых ^ синонимических рядов. Кроме того, можно говорить о тенденции перехода наиболее популярных и часто употребляемых специальных сленгизмов в общий сленг, а оттуда в разговорную речь. Так, многие слова, относящиеся к специальному университетскому сленгу и называющие различные учебные предметы, стали частью общего американского сленга (bio, lit, Phil и др.).

Анализ сленговой лексики с точки зрения способов словообразования свидетельствует о том, что сленг использует те же способы словообразования, что и современный английский язык в целом. Так, наиболее популярными способами словообразования в сленге являются словосложение (128 JIE, из которых 35 являются фразовыми глаголами), сокращение (54 JIE) и конверсия (25 JIE). При этом большую роль в образовании сленгизмов играют полуаффиксы, а некоторые лексические единицы меняют свой знак оценки на противоположный при добавлении к ним определенного артикля (таких случаев в нашем материале два).

Семантическое словообразование также характерно для сленговой лексики. Сленгизмы могут образовываться в результате метафорического переноса значений слов литературного языка (таких случаев 35) на основе таких признаков как внешний вид и функция, а также аналогия, основанная на психологических ассоциациях между обозначаемыми явлениями.

Что касается изменения семантики сленгизмов во временном аспекте, I" то за последние 18 лет многие J1E получили новые значения в результате метафорического переноса. Кроме того, новые значения некоторых J1E возникли в результате конкретизации или обобщения более ранних значений.

Несмотря на утверждения многих исследователей сленга о том, что сленговая лексика быстро выходит из употребления, половина сленгизмов в нашем материале в период с 1987 по 2005 год не только не вышла из употребления, но и сохранила свои значения. Это свидетельствует о том, что в лексике сленга можно выделить ядро и периферию. В ядро входят наиболее . устойчивые сленгизмы, которые в неизменном виде переходят от одного поколения говорящих к другому без изменения своих значений.

Помимо отдельных слов, сленг изобилует фразеологическими единицами, большинство из которых (58 из 74) являются фразеологическими сращениями, которым свойственна высокая степень идиоматичности и образности.

Мы отдаем себе отчет в том, что материал и выводы, представленные в диссертации, основываются на данных лишь одного университета, поэтому сленговая лексика студентов других университетов, особенно та ее часть, которая отражает собственно университетские реалии, может отличаться от данных нашего исследования.

Проведенное исследование никоим образом нельзя считать окончательным. Результаты данной работы можно использовать при изучении и сопоставлении сленговой лексики других социальных групп или студентов других университетов. Такого рода сопоставление дает возможность сделать вывод о том, какие общие и различные черты студенческая сленговая лексика имеет в разных учебных заведениях и регионах, то есть получить полную картину состояния современного американского сленга в речи студентов университетов, которой мы не располагаем. Хочется выразить надежду, что данная работа станет первым шагом на пути к крупномасштабному изучению сленга американских студентов как во временном, так и в территориальном аспектах:
