pragmatics%homonym%system%mechanism of use
Words, derivation of symbols, are a part played in human affairs by language of all kinds, and especially of their influ?ence on thought. According to The Triangle of Reference, words/symbols are endowed with references, some of which are one-on-one connected, and some of which are one-on-multiple colligated, modulated by social convention. Phenomena of using homonym are ubiquitous while the system of using it is still opaque. The multiple meaning of homonym is considered to have a pragmatic mechanism in which the implementing process of utterer and the construing pattern of hearer are regulated and formu?lated. This paper is tentatively cogitating polysemy in a system of pragmatic utility and tabling a pragmatic mechanism of hom?onym for better understanding and academic contribution of it.
