Abstract The Lexical Constructional Model (LCM) describes ironic constructions as containing echoes that invoke two contrasting situations: expected and real. The reconciliation of the contrast, which happens at the implicational level, gives rise to specific meaning effects in terms of speaker’s emotional reaction (see Ruiz de Mendoza & Galera Masegosa, 2014). The present study elaborates on these insights showing that echoing and contrast can cooperate in non-ironic constructions. In these cases, however, a full-fledged interpretation of the speaker’s reaction happens at the illocutionary level as bearing the value of an indirect invitation to the hearer to assess the truth value of the expected situation. Hence, the collaboration of echoing and contrast in non-ironic constructions may effect conceptual change/development. This is consistent with yet another observation made by the LCM; namely, that the cooperation of echoing and contrast operations in ironic constructions involves a concept-building operation (Ruiz de Mendoza, 2017).

非ironic结构中的回声对比组合

摘要词汇构造模型（LCM）将具有讽刺意味的构造描述为包含回声，从而引起两种相反的情况：预期和真实。对比的调和发生在暗示的层面上，在说话者的情感反应方面产生了特定的意义效果（参见Ruiz de Mendoza和Galera Masegosa，2014）。本研究详细阐述了这些见解，表明回声和对比度可以在非离子性结构中协同工作。但是，在这些情况下，对演讲者反应的完整解释发生在语言层面，因为它间接地邀请了听众以评估预期情况的真实价值。因此，在非爱奥尼克结构中回声和对比的合作可能会影响概念上的改变/发展。这与LCM的另一项观察结果是一致的；也就是说，在讽刺建筑中回声和对比操作的合作涉及概念构建操作（Ruiz de Mendoza，2017）。
