摘　　要：虚拟位移是指句中主语虽未产生任何移动,但却可用位移动词来表达的语言现象。本文认为语法转喻是虚拟位移构式形成的动因。虚拟位移是有理据的,反映了人类经验运动的本质和思维经验的一种体验性;虚拟位移不仅"以动写静",更是转喻思维方式的体现,因此转喻思维是虚拟位移构式建构的认知理据。Motion is one of the fundamental concepts in the cognitive make-up of humans. The description and understanding of motion events have been explored by many linguists over the years and from different perspectives. Fictive motion constructions are dynamic constructions involving entities which, although static, are related to motion in various ways. This paper discusses the cognitive motivation of fictive motion constructions which involve a metonymic motion of an entity or an abstract concept in a space, and shows that fictive motion reflects the motion nature of human experience and human thinking.

关 键 词：虚拟位移构式 转喻思维 理据
