ˇAllthechildrendidn’tsleep.（重音落在all上，且使用降升调）这两个话语在语义上的差异也是违反了传统逻辑规律。语音规律的介事实上，这种突破一般逻辑规律的现象在其它语言中也时常可见。以汉语为例：今天街上好热闹。今天街上好不热闹。事实上，这种突破一般逻辑规律的现象在其它语言中也时常可见。以再看汉语中的“差点儿”和“差点儿没”两个表达法：他差点儿摔倒了。他差点儿没摔倒。再看汉语中的“差点儿”和“差点儿没”两个表达法：我差点儿通过了考试。

我差点儿没通过考试。如果用“差点儿”和“差点儿没”去修饰说话人希望实现的事情，那么“差点儿”含有惋惜希望的事情未能实现，而“差点儿没”是指庆幸希望的事情发生了。我差点儿通过了考试。如果用“差点儿”和“差点儿没”去修饰说2.Therearenoabsolutestandardsofcorrectnessinlanguageuses.2.Therearenoabsolutes秋浦歌白发三千丈，缘愁似个长。不知明镜里，何处得秋霜。单看“白发三千丈”一句，真叫人无法理解：白发怎么能有“三千丈”呢？愁生白发，人所共晓，而长达三千丈，该有多少深重的愁思。十个字的千钧重量落在一个“愁”字上。以此写愁，匪夷所思。奇想出奇句，不能不使人惊叹诗人的气魄和笔力。秋浦歌3.Useofstudyinglinguistics(pp.3-4)1)Tohaveanoverviewofhumanlanguage;2)Tounderstandthathumanlanguageshaveimportantfeaturesincommonthoughtheydiffergreatlyinmanydetails;3)Togoalongthepathleadingtothefinalprofessioneitherasateacherofforeignlanguagesorasaresearcheroflinguisticsortranslation(p.4)3.Useofstudyinglinguistics4.Scopeoflinguistics(pp.4-8)1)microlinguisticsVSmacrolinguisticsMicrolinguistics:Phonetics,Phonology,Morphology,Syntax,Semantics,Pragmatics.
