Prototype

原型

A term used in semantics and psycholinguistics for a typical member of the extension of a referring expression. Prototype semantics involves the development of criteria for the definition of prototypical meaning, with particular reference to the way that the ‘radial set’ of overlapping meanings interrelate, and the nature of category membership and boundaries.

语义学和心理语言学用来指一个指称词语外延义的典型成员。原型语义学旨在制定一些标准来界定原型意义，特别关注“辐射集”中互有交叠的意义相关联的方式以及范畴成员资格和范畴边界的性质。
