ABSTRACT: Color
is both a general concept which interrelates with other concepts and a category
which encompasses various subcategories. Chinese and English are of different
language systems which result in the potential differences in language
cognition. The present research aims to reveal the differences and similarities
of the same concept in different cultures like English and Chinese by comparing
color as a concept and a category between English and Chinese on the basis of
the Historical Thesaurus of Oxford
English Dictionary.
