串讲内容：Introduction

部分：Lexicology

这门课算哪一种学科的分支:

Lexicology

is

a

branch

of

linguistics.

Lexicology和那些重要的学科建立了联系:Morphology

2)

Semantics

3)

Stylistics

4)

Etymology

5)

Lexicography研究lexicology

的两大方法:1)

Diachronic

approach

:

历时语言学2)

Synchronic

approach

:

共时语言学e.g.

wife

纵观历时语言学的方法论，woman

词义的变化算是词义变化的哪一种模式？

Woman

的词义的变化算Narrowing

or

第一章部分：What

is

word?

词具有哪些特点？词的特点也就是对词的名词解释。1)

A

word

is

a

minimal

free

form

of

a

language;2)

A

sound

unity

or

a

given

sound;3)

a

unit

of

meaning;4)

a

form

that

can

function

alone

in

a

sentence.

以上词的四个特点也就是词的名词解释词的分类（classification

of

a

word）

词根据发音可以分为哪两种词或者说词根据拼写可以分为哪两类词

1)

simple

words

2)

complex

words

单音节词例子：e.g.

Man

and

fine

are

simple多音节词例子：

e.g.

Management,

misfortune,

blackmail

management

可以次划分为manage

和

-ment

misfortune

可以次划分为mis-

和

fortune

blackmail

次划分为black

和

mail

What

is

the

relationship

between

sound

and

meaning?1)There

is

‘no

logical

relationship

between

the

sound

and

actual

thing.e.g.

dog.

cat2)The

relationship

between

them

is

conventional.3)

In

different

languages

the

same

concept

can

be

represented

by

different

sounds.What

is

relationship

between

sound

and

form?1)The

written

form

of

a

natural

language

is

the

written

record

of

the

oral

form.

Naturally

the

written

form

should

agree

with

the

oral

form,

such

as

English

language.2)This

is

fairly

true

of

English

in

its

earliest

stage

i.e.

Old

English

3)With

the

development

of

the

language,

more

and

more

differences

occur

between

the

two.

What

are

the

great

changes

that

causes

illogical

relationship

or

irregularity

between

sound

and

form?1)

The

internal

reason

for

this

is

that

the

English

alphabet

was

adopted

from

the

Romans,

which

does

not

have

a

separate

letter

to

represent

each

sound

in

the

language

so

that

some

letters

must

do

double

duty

or

work

together

in

combination.2)

Another

reason

is

that

the

pronunciation

has

changed

more

rapidly

than

spelling

over

the

years,

and

in

some

cases

the

two

have

drawn

far

apart.

3)

A

third

reason

is

that

some

of

the

differences

were

created

by

the

early

scribes.4)

Finally

comes

the

borrowing,

which

is

an

important

channel

of

enriching

the

English

vocabulary.要记住以上四句话中的关键词：

1)

influenced

by

Romans

2)

Pronunciation

changed

3)

early

scribes4)

你能不能举出外来语对英语发音,拼写造成不一致的例子有哪些？

e.g.

stimulus

(L)

,fiesta

(Sp)

,eureka

(Gr),

kimono

(Jap)外来语对英语造成的最大的影响就是‘sound

and

form

’不一致。What

is

vocabulary?Vocabulary

refers

to

the

total

number

of

the

words

in

a

language,

but

it

can

stand

for

all

the

words

used

in

a

particular

historical

period.Vocabulary

also

refers

to

all

the

words

of

a

given

dialect,

given

book,

a

given

discipline

and

the

words

possessed

by

an

individual

person.

Classification

of

Words

(本课的一个重点,

年年考试都考)What

is

the

classification

of

words

How

to

classify

words

in

linguistics

Three

criteria:

1)

By

use

of

frequency2)

By

notion

3)

By

origin

By

use

of

frequency

可划分为：1)

The

basic

are

also

known

as

are

also

known

as

empty

3)

Productivity

4)

Polysemy

5)

Collocability

要把握住‘All

words

?Answer

:

Content

words

What

is

native

words?

Answer

:

(1)

By

origin,

English

words

can

be

classified

into

native

words

and

borrowed

words.(2)

Native

words

are

words

brought

to

Britain

in

the

fifth

century

by

the

German

tribes:

the

Angles,

the

Saxons,

and

the

Jutes,

thus

know

as

Anglo-Saxon

words.(3)

Words

of

Anglo-Saxon

origin

are

small

in

number

,amounting

to

roughly

50,000

to

60,000,

but

they

form

the

mainstream

of

the

basic

word

stock

and

stand

at

the

core

of

the

language什么叫borrowed

words?

Answer:

(1)

words

taken

over

from

foreign

languages

are

know

as

borrowed

words

or

loan

words

or

borrowings

in

simple

terms.(2)

It

is

estimated

that

English

borrowings

constitute

80

percent

of

the

modern

English

vocabulary(3)

The

English

language

has

vast

debts

.In

any

dictionary

some

80%

of

the

entries

are

borrowed.什么叫Denizens?

Denizens

are

words

borrowed

early

in

the

past

and

now

are

well

assimilated

into

the

English

language.

In

other

words

they

have

come

to

conform

to

the

English

way

of

pronunciation

and

spelling,

such

as

port

from

portus

(L).‘Denizens’的例子都要记：Port

from

portus

(L),

cup

from

cuppa

(L),

shift

from

skipta

(ON),

shirt

from

skyrta

(ON),

change

from

changier

(F),

pork

from

porc

(F).什么叫Translation-loans

?

Translation-loans

are

words

and

expressions

formed

form

the

existing

material

in

the

English

language

but

modeled

on

the

patterns

taken

from

another

language,

such

as

‘

long

time

no

see

from

haojiumeijian

(Ch)什么叫Semantic-loans

?

words

of

this

category

are

not

borrowed

with

reference

to

the

form

,But

their

meaning

are

borrowed

,

in

other

words,

English

has

borrowed

a

new

meaning

for

an

existing

word

in

the

language

,such

as

the

word

dream

,which

originally

meant

’joy’

and

‘music

’,

and

its

modern

meaning

was

borrowed

later

from

the

Norse.

第二章：The

of

the

English

vocabularyThe

Indo-European

Language

Family

It

is

assumed

that

the

world

has

approximately

3,000(some

put

it

5,000)languages

,which

can

be

grouped

into

roughly

300

language

families

on

the

basis

of

similarities

in

their

basic

word

stock

and

grammar

900

words

of

origin

have

survived

in

名词解释:Morphemes

:

The

minimal

meaningful

units

in

a

language

are

known

as

morphemes.

In

other

words,

the

morphemes

is

’the

fish-fish简答题：

what

are

the

types

of

morphemes

?

(

答简答题时,名词解释)答案：Free

morphemes

and

bound

morphemes

Free

morphemes

:

1)

Free

morphemes

are

independent

of

other

morphemes

and

are

considered

to

be

free.

2)

These

morphemes

have

complete

meanings

in

themselves

and

can

be

used

as

free

grammatical

units

in

sentences.

3)

They

are

identical

with

root

words,

as

each

of

them

consists

of

a

single

free

root

words

,as

each

of

them

consists

of

a

single

free

root

4)

free

morphemes

are

free

roots.bound

morphemes:

1)

Morphemes

which

cannot

occur

as

separate

words

are

bound..2)

They

are

bound

to

other

morphemes

to

form

words.

3)

Bound

morphemes

include

two

types:

bound

root

and

affix

affix

分为两类:

inflectional

and

derivational

affixes.Inflectional

affixes

:

Affixes

attached

to

the

end

of

words

to

indicate

grammatical

relationships

are

inflectional,

thus

known

as

inflectional

morphemes.

Derivational

affixes:

1)derivational

affixes

are

affixes

added

to

other

morphemes

to

create

now

words.

2)

Derivational

affixes

can

be

further

divided

into

prefixes

and

suffixes.

root

:

1)

a

root

is

the

basic

form

of

a

word

which

cannot

be

further

analyzed

without

total

loss

of

identity.2)

the

root,

whether

free

or

bound,

generally

carries

the

main

component

of

meaning

in

a

word3)

a

’root

is

that

part

of

a

wordform

that

remains

when

all

inflectional

and

derivational

affixes

have

been

removed’stem

:

1)

a

stem

may

consist

of

a

single

root

morpheme

as

in

iron

or

of

two

root

morphemes

as

in

a

compound

like

handcuff.

2)

It

can

be

a

root

morpheme

plus

one

or

more

affixational

morphemes

as

in

mouthful,

underestimate.3)

Therefore,

a

stem

can

be

defined

as

a

form

to

which

affixes

of

any

kind

can

be

added.

问题：Stem

和

root

有一个最大的区别在哪里

(

连着两年没有考过)答案：

a

stem

can

be

defined

as

a

form

to

which

affixes

of

any

kind

can

be

added.

问题：请加以区别下面两个词的特征:

nation

,

dict

请加以理论的分析

Both

nation

and

dict

belong

to

roots,

nation

is

free

root,

which

can

function

alone

in

a

sentence,

Nation

as

a

free

root,

has

complete

meaning,

when

both

prefixes

and

suffixes

attached

to

it

are

removed,

nation

as

a

free

root,

still

remains

Dict

is

a

bound

root,

which

can

not

function

alone

grammatically,

dict

carries

the

fundamental

meaning

of

words,

dict

has

to

combine

with

the

other

morphemes

to

create

new

words

,

for

example

,

2)Concept(能够形成Concept的词必然有reference)

3)Sense(有sense的词未必具有concept,也未必具有reference)

(Conjunction,prepositions,adverbs,它们都是具有sense的词,但是未必具有reference,也未必具有concept,例如：if,but,probably:它们有sense,但没有concept)

(1)appreciativemeaning

(2)pejorativemeaning

Collocativemeaning中的例子要记好:pretty,handsome

Green搭配的例子记好:greenonthejob,greenfruit,greenwithenvy,green-eyedmonster.
