摘要
本研究以150英語有關快樂的諺語為研究標的˙這些蒐集自不同網站的語料，經過語法（辭彙、句型結構及語意表達等層面）做比較性的分析。其結果如下：
a) 大部分句型結構在語詞與句型方面與其他語句並沒有太大的差異，但是格言在句法與語意之間關係非常的緊密。
b) 比喻型的句子不僅想表達其雙關的語義，也要表達句中所隱含的寓意及文化。
本研究在理論上，顯示格言與其他語句並非不同，而在句子精簡與語意對稱上，才能顯出其特性。就經驗上來說，本研究對英文教育與語言文化分析上有所貢獻。

Abstract
This research was focused on the syntactic and semantic features of parallel sayings about happiness in English. Each aspect would explore what revealed in terms of lexical words, syntactic structure, and sematic expressions. The data to be examined was essentially a mini corpus composed of more than150 samples which listed in the appendix part. Most of the examples were available in online websites, books, literature, magazine, etc... These findings emerging were, to the effect, (a) Most sayings were written in a well-organized syntactic structure, no matter what lexica adopted, to show deep semantic expressions. (b) Figurative languages were crafted for not only the ambiguous purposes of literary expressions, but also put the attempts to combine idiomatic and cultural backgrounds in writing. What was implied further in this study would be twofold in a nutshell. Theoretically, linguistic structure conveyed more diversified in appearance than in essence. Empirically, however, the findings of this study contributed to the interesting and innovative field for English teaching and learning in pedagogy and linguistic analysis in cultures.
Keywords: Syntactic features, Semantic features, Parallelism, sayings
