ABSTRACT

This paper aims to establish the category of conventional expressions which denote emotional meanings definitely by considering the expressions' typicality as a conventional expression and the typicality of meanings of 'emotion', and to present the list of the phrases qualified to be in that category. First, an emotion expression having combinational conventionality can be considered as a sort of a meaningful phrase unit. When a phrasal expression satisfying this condition expresses an 'emotional' meaning, it is probably a conventional emotion expression. Next, those expressions are divided into 2 kinds by semantic features: the typical conventional emotion expressions and the non-typical conventional emotion expressions. A typical conventional emotion expression could express its emotional meaning only as a whole phrase; Furthermore, the phrase itself includes a emotional meaning as a conventionally coded meaning; and, the phrase expresses non-intentional emotion caused by stimuli.
