摘　　要：流行语"悲催"源自东汉乐府诗《孔雀东南飞》"阿母大悲摧"句,从最初用于形容人的内心感受到指称一切事物的"不如意","悲催"的语义范围较以往发生了很大变化。以新浪网为语料库,运用抽样调查、综合分析等方法对近三年来"悲催"在媒体语言中的使用情况进行了考察,认为语用因素是促使"悲催"流行趋势增强的直接原因。其次,从认知角度揭示了"悲催"语义泛化的重要机制,即通过跨概念域系统映射的隐喻机制,"悲催"完成了从情感域向抽象域的映射,从而实现了语义的转移。此外,年轻人崇尚新奇的心理需求也促使"悲催"从传统走向流行。Catchword ＂Beicui＂ comes from the line ＂mother is strong of grief＂ in the poems ＂Peacocks flying to Southeast ward＂ during the Eastern Han Dynasty. From the initial, the term is used to describe people＇s feelings to everything that is unpleasant. The semantic range of ＂Beicui＂ has greatly been changed more than ever before. In the past three years, based on the Sina for corpus, the usage of ＂＇BeicuF was studied by using a sampling survey and comprehensive analysis. The results indicate that the pragmatic factors contributing to the promotion of the popular trend to enhance meanings of ＂BeicuF.
