Abstract:

In the history of shipping, empty boats often have to load ballast stones, but it is not only empty boats that load ballast stones. In the interpretation of “yacang shi” in the Modern Chinese Dictionary (7th edition), “empty boats” should be changed to “boats”. Marine solid ballast constitutes a concept system, in which the original meaning of “ballast stone ”and “ballast iron (ballast iron) ”is significantly different in semantic features, usage context and terminology character, in the interpretation of “yacang shi”, the component “cast iron” should be deleted.

Key words: “ yacang shi”, term meaning, metaphor meaning, concept system
