Abstract

Clothing, food, housing and transportation are an important part of our daily life and they are also the basic guarantee of human survival. Among them, “intersect” is an important link between interpersonal communication and activities, which realizing the smooth transmission of people and things. The language of transportation is a relatively rigorous language, with strict standards and a unified form to ensure that the information can be conveyed accurately and without ambiguity. In recent years, with the rapid development of society, language has also made breakthroughs, and gradually some traffic words are no longer limited to the original semantics, but have produced new semantics and usage. This paper will analyze the new meaning of traffic language based on the theory of conceptual metaphor, find its source and target domains, and explore the semantic pragmatics, so as to provide reference for the application and development of transportation language.
