I present a computational level account of how people combine concepts, and I use this account to evaluate current models of conceptual combination. Constrained by this account, I then provide an algorithmic level description of how people combine concepts. The algorithmic level account highlights the importance of two additional processes (comparison and construction) in explaining how some concepts combine and change. I then show that the interpretation of nominal metaphors involves these processes as well. Current approaches to metaphor understanding emphasize the importance of one or the other of these processes, but not both.
我提出了一个关于人们如何组合概念的计算水平解释，并使用这个解释来评估当前的概念组合模型。受这个解释的限制，我随后提供了一个关于人们如何组合概念的算法水平描述。这个算法水平的描述强调了两个额外的过程（比较和构建）在解释某些概念如何组合和变化方面的重要性。我随后表明，对名词语义的解释也涉及到这些过程。当前的隐喻理解方法强调了这些过程中的一个或另一个的重要性，但不是两个都强调。
