英语中借喻、借代、提喻的区别

借喻（Metonymy)即为借代，所以借喻、借代、提喻的区别即借代、提喻的区别：

一、内涵不同

metonymy(借喻)：借联想把一种事物的名称用来代替另一事物的名称，或由一种概念来代替另一种概念。

Synecdoche(提喻) ：以“部分代替全体” , “全体代替部分” ,“类概念代替种概念” 或“种概念代替类概念” 。

借喻强调两个事物密切相关，而提喻不但强调两事物相关，而且侧重整体和部分，类概念和种概念的互代。

eg1.He numbered the sails in the harbour. --风帆是船的一部分,代替整个船只。（借喻）

eg2.I don' t have to worry about the fuel and rice. --柴米来代替日用品的全体。（提喻）

二、表现形式及使用效果不同

1、借喻中本体和喻体联系紧密，但表面并不相似，有如下种类：

（1）以事物的明显标志代替事物本身

eg.To be afeard to tell greybeards the truth?

Greybeards 是老年人的特征，以此特征代替老年人。

（2）以工具代替动作或行为者

eg. The pen is mightier than the sw ord.

the pen 指 writing 或使用 pen 的人；the sword 指 military power 或使用 sword 的人。

（3）以人体的器官代替其功能

eg. Give every man thine ear and few thy voice.

上句中的 ear 代替 sense or power of hearing(听觉，听能)。

（4）以表示抽象的精神或性质的名词代替体现该 精神或性质的具体动作或事物

eg.And all the pavement streamed w ith massacre. --地面流遍了屠杀的鲜血。

上句中，用 massacre(屠杀)代替屠杀的结果(鲜血)。

（5）以有密切关系的一物代替另一物

eg.The whole school rushed noisily into the playground.

句中的 whole school 指代 all the students of the school。

2、提喻的表示形式主要有4种：

（1）以部分代替全体

eg.He discovered a bread-and-butter field in the agricultural w eeklies and trade journals.

bread and butter 原意为“涂黄油的面包” , 代替 “生计、生活资料、生活来源、赖以生存的东西。

（2）以全体代替部分。

eg. All the world-her world and his world-would think it better that they should part.

上句中的(all) the world 表示(所有)相识的人。

（3）类概念代替种概念

eg. I had begun to exploit my fellow -creatures. --我开始剥削我的伙计。

上句中的类概念creature(生物)代替种概念 man (人) 。

（4）种概念代替类概念

eg. Alas, that Spring should vanish with the Rose! --呀，可春天要同玫瑰一起消灭。

上句中，rose代替flow ersin general。

借代、提喻与相关修辞的差异

英语中的 metonymy 包括汉语中的借代和借喻。 synecdoche 也含有汉语中的借代，所以汉语中的借代 修辞格既存在于英语的 metonymy 中，也包含在 synecdoche之中。

英语中的 metonymy 和 synecdoche 不同于英语中的 simile(明喻)和 metaphor(隐喻)。前两种辞格强调两事物的相关，后两种辞格强调两事物在某一点上相似。

eg. ①You can' t force an ox to bend its head to drink.

多用来作隐喻，意思是强逼人家不愿作的事。

eg.②……, and there seems to be no time in her life w hen she can fold her hands and gaze about her from the privileged harbour of her old age.

《The lsle of Achill 》句中的 harbour 是“避风港”的意思，这里把一 个妇女的老年比喻成 harbour，指一个老年妇女应该享受优惠。

Synecdoche的英文定义

synecdoche [si'nekdəki]

n. 提喻法（一种修辞方法，以局部代表全部和以全部指部分）

metonymy [mi'tɔnimi, mə-]

n. [语言学]转喻

转喻(Metonymy)是指当甲事物同乙事物不相类似，但有密切关系时，可以利用这种关系，以乙事物的名称来取代甲事物，这样的一种修辞手段。转喻的重点不是在“相似”；而是在“联想”。转喻又称换喻，或借代。

例如1.The kettle boils.壶水开。

(用the kettle壶，表示 the water in the kettle 壶水)

2.He is fond of the bottle.他喜欢喝酒。

（用bottle装酒的瓶子，表示wine酒）

3.Grey hairs should be respected.老人应受到尊重。

（用grey hairs白发，表示 old people老人)

英语修辞中metonym 和synecdoche的区别

Metonymy 转喻

A figure of speech in which one word or phrase is substituted for another with which it is closely associated, as in the use of “ Washington” for “the United States government” or of “the sword” for “military power”.

The kettle is boiling. (water in the kettle)

He took to the bottle.他爱上了喝酒。 (wine in the bottle)

I’m reading Lu Xun. ( Lu Xun’s works)

He’s listening to Beethoven. (Beethoven’s works)

He is booked out for the whole season.他这个季演出的票全订出去了 。 (the tickets for his concerts)

When she entered high school, she would wear a wardrobe that no one else would be able to match.当她上中学时，她所穿的衣服任何一个人都没法比。

They will resort to the sword if the negotiation does no work.

She is the first violin in the band.她是乐队中的第一小提琴手。

Synecdoche 提喻

A figure of speech in which a part is used for the whole, the whole for a part, the specific for the general, the general for the specific, or the material for the thing from which it is made.

Young people should have more respect for gray hairs.

He saw some new faces in the classroom.

A fleet of ten sails \ To earn one’s bread \ To count heads

Many hands provide great strength.

The poor man had twelve mouths to feed.

Lend me your ears. ( give me your attention.)

Both are figures of speech used in rhetoric. They’re not the same thing, though metonymy is often interpreted so widely that synecdoche can be regarded as a special case of it.

As for Synecdoche, You use this when you speak of a part of something but mean the whole thing. When Patrick O’Brian has Captain Jack Aubrey tell his first lieutenant（陆军中尉） to “let the hands go to dinner” he’s employing synecdoche, because he’s using a part (the hand) for the whole man. You can also reverse the whole and the part, so using a word for something when you only mean part of it. This often comes up in sport: a commentator might say that “The West Indies has lost to England” when he means that the West Indian team has lost to the English one. America is often used as synecdoche in this second sense, as the word refers to the whole continent but is frequently applied to a part of it, the USA.

Metonymy is similar, but uses something more generally or loosely associated with a concept to stand in for it. When Americans speak of the Oval Office（美国总统办公室）, for example, they are really referring to the activity within it, the position or function of the President. It’s a linked term, and so a metonym. British writers refer similarly to the Crown（王冠）, when they’re really discussing the powers, authority and responsibilities of the monarchy（君主政体）, which is symbolized by the crown. The difference between synecdoche and metonymy is that in metonymy the word you employ is linked to the concept you are really talking about, but isn’t actually a part of it. Another example is the turf（草皮） for horse racing. But the distinction isn’t always obvious and often can’t be rigorously applied, and many people use metonymy to mean both.
