语言学-名词解释
1. Language is a scientific system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication.2. Minimal pairs are the word forms which differ from each other only by one sound. In other words, when two different forms re identical in every way except for one sound segment that occurs in the same place in the string; the two words are called minimal pairs.3. A morpheme is the smallest linguistic unit that carries grammatical and/or semantic meaning.4. IPA: A phonetic transcription is an economical means for capturing sounds on paper, that is, a method of writing down speech sounds in a systematic and consistent way. The best-known system, the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), has been developing since 1888.5. SLA: second language acquisition to refer to the process of acquiring or learning an additional language after the learner has acquired his or her mother tongue.6. Linguistics is the science of language for all human societies, and is defined as the systematic study of language.7. Diachronic study: the description of the historical development of a language. Linguistic study in the 19th century was primarily concerned with the diachronic description.8. Synchronic study: the description of a particular state of a language at a single point of time. The priority of synchronic description is a characteristic of most twentieth-century linguistic theories.9. Syntagmatic relation: the relations between units which combine to form sequences10. Paradigmatic relation: oppositions which produce distinct and alternative terms11. Competence refers to the knowledge that native speakers have of their language as system of abstract formal relations. That is the ideal language user’s knowledge of the rules of his language.12. Performance refers to what we do when we speak or listen, that is, the actual realization of this knowledge in utterances.13. A corpus refers to a collection of linguistic data, either complicated as written texts or as a transcription of recorded speech.14. A phonetic transcription is an economical means for capturing sounds on paper, that is, a method of writing down speech sounds in a systematic and consistent way.15. Phoneme is the minimum phonemic unit that is not further analyzable into smaller units. It is the basic unit in phonological analysis.16. Sound patterns refer to the set of sounds that occur in a given language, the permissible arrangements of these sounds in words, and the processes for adding, deleting, or changing sounds.17. Stress is the pronunciation of a word or syllable with more force than the surrounding words or syllables.18. Pitch is a suprasegmental quality which extends over individual segments and longer stretches of speech.19. Inflection refers to the process of adding an affix to a word or changing it in some other way according to the rules of the grammar of a language.20. Proverbs are normally in the form of a sentence. A proverb is often a short sentence that people often quote and use to give advice and state some general human life experience and problem.21. Synonymy: words or expressions with the same or similar meaning are said to be synonymy.22. Homonymy refers to cases where lexemes with the same phonological or morphological shape have different meanings.23. a speech act:An action performed by the use of an utterance to communicate is called a speech act.24. Dialect refers to any regional, social or ethnic variety of a language.25. Register refers to the functional variety of language that is defined according to its use in context. Registers vary according to the three parameters of context: field, tenor and mode (Halliday, 1978).26. Language planning refers to a deliberate attempt, usually at the level of the state or government administration, to affect language use in order to prevent or to solve some problems of communication.27. Hyponymy is used to refer to a specific—general semantic relationship between lexical items.1. What is the scope of linguistics? Answer: there are six branches of linguistics. 1)Phonetics is the study of human speech sounds.2)Phonology is the study of sound patterning.3)Morphology is the study of the internal structures of the form of words.4)Syntax is the study of sentence structure.5)Semantics is the study of meaning.6)Pragmatics studies how speakers use language in ways which can not be predicted from linguistic knowledge alone.2. What are the differences between Langue and Parole? Please analysis the distinctions of Langue and Parole.Answer: This distinction is proposed by Saussure in his Course in General Linguistics.Langue: the abstract system; a collective body of knowledge; a kind of common reference manual; acquired by all members of a community of speakers; relatively stable and systematic.Parole: the particular actualities of individual utterance; the contingent executive side of things; the relatively superficial behavioral reflexes of knowledge; the use of language in utterances; subject to personal or situational constraints.3. Please describe the three kinds of Origin of Language?Answer:1) Creation (Devine Origin) Almost every religion has stories about how man received language from god. The divine origin theorists propose that in the beginning there was one language from one source, which later became corrupted into many languages.2) Evolution:Men evolved from lower forms of life; language, too, evolved. 3) Invention:The invention theory believes that there is a natural connection between the forms of language and the essence of things.4.Please describe the semantic relations briefly.Answer: (1) synonymy and antonymy:Words or expressions with the same or similar meaning are said to be synonymous. Antonymy is the relationship of oppositeness of meaning. (2) meronymy and hyponymy: Meronymy is a term used to describe a part-whole relationship between lexical items. Hyponymy is used to refer to a specific—general semantic relationship between lexical items. (3) polysemy and homonymy: When a single lexeme has several meanings, it is called polysemic.Homonymy refers to cases where lexemes with the same phonological or morphological shape have different meanings.5. In 1967, linguist Grice proposed the term of the cooperative principle and its maxims. Then please describe the cooperative principle and its maxims.Answer: According to cooperative principle, the participants in a conversation normally communicate in a maximally efficient, rational and cooperative way. They should speak sincerely, relevantly and clearly, while providing sufficient information.Four maxims:(1)The maxim of qualityTry to make your contribution one that is true, especially: (i) do not say what you believe to be false and (ii) do not say that for which you lack adequate evidence.(2)The maxim of quantity.Make your contribution as informative as is required for the current purposes of the exchange and (ii) do not make your contribution more informative than is required.(3)The maxim of relevance.Make your contribution relevant.(4)The maxim of manner.Be perspicuous, and specifically: (i) Avoid obscurity of expression; (ii) Avoid ambiguity; (iii) Be brief (avoid unnecessary prolixity) and (iv) Be orderly.6. What are the major differences between acquisition and language learning?Acquisition is called as the spontaneous internalization of rules and formulas. First language acquisition is also called mother tongue acquisition. Acquisition takes place in the speech community where one’s first language or second language is spoken. It is often natural, without much focus on form. The learning of English by speakers of other languages in the United States is an example of second language acquisition.Foreign language learning is usually takes place in the speech community where one’s first language is spoken. It is a conscious process through formal school-like settings and requires time for processing, for example, the learning of English in China.7. Is the language arbitrary? Please analyze the concept of arbitrariness.Answer: Language is Arbitrary Saussure regards the linguistic sign as a two-sided psychological entity. Concept and sound-image are replaced by signified所指and signifier能指respectively. Arbitrariness is the result of the need to express and code a wide range of meanings. The speaker of a language, based upon the convention established in the speech community, associates linguistic signs with things and concepts. For example, there is no connection between the word tree and the plant it signifies. It can equally be called shù in Chinese and arbre in French.8. What is register? And please describe its three parameters.Answer: Register refers to the functional variety of language that is defined according to its use in context. Registers vary according to the three parameters of context: field, tenor and mode.(1) Field refers to the social action. It involves what is happening, the nature of the social action that is taking place and what the participants are engaged in. Field is the linguistic reflection of the role of the language use with a definite purpose in the situation in which a text has occurred. (2) Tenor refers the role structure. It involves: who is taking part, the nature of the participants, their status and roles, and the type of role relationship between the participants.(3) Mode refers to the linguistic channel and the rhetorical mode. Mode reflects the relationship of the language use to the medium of transmission. (Halliday, 1978)9. What are the Politeness Principle and its maxims?Answer: Leech (1983:132) develops the face theory further and formulates the politeness principle.a) Tact maxim:Minimize cost to other; Maximize cost of selfb) Generosity maxim:Minimize benefit to self; Maximize praise of otherc) Approbation maxim:Minimize dispraise of other; Maximize dispraise of selfd) Modesty maxim:Minimize disagreement between self and other; Maximize sympathy between self and othere) Agreement maxim:Minimize disagreement between self and other; Maximize agreement between self and otherf) Sympathy maxim: Minimize antipathy between self and other; Maximize sympathy between self and other.10. Please analyze the distinctions between Free and bound morphemes.Answer: If a morpheme can constitute a word (free form) by itself, it is called a free morpheme, like room, bottle, stand, large. If a morpheme has meaning only when connected with at least another morpheme, it is bound, like un- in unlucky, and the plural –s in bags.A bound morpheme is also called an affix in the sense that it is always added to another morpheme. Affixes can be further divided into prefixes, suffixes and infixes. e.g. dis- in disorder; mini- in minibus; en- in ensure;-ful, in useful; -less in careless; -e- in men and women; -i- in mice and lice; -ee- in feet and teeth.11. Specifically, what do the inflectional morphemes include in modern English, and what do these inflectional morphemes indicate? Answer: Inflectional morphemes include in modern English indicate case and number of nouns, tense and aspect of verbs, and degree of adjectives and adverbs. Specially, modern English inflectional morphemes include:-’s, indicating the possessive case of nouns;-(e)s, indicating the plural form of noun;-(e)s, indicating the simple present tense of verbs sgreeing with a third person sigular subject;-ed, indicationg the past tense of verbs;-ing, indicating the progressive aspect of verbs;-er, indicating the comparative degree of adjectives and adverbs;-est, indicating the superlative degree of adjectives and adverbs.12. Please explain the Nature of Language as clearly as you can.Answer: The nature of language has 6 characteristics:1) Language is Systematic; 2) Language is Symbolic; 3) Language is Arbitrary;4) Language is primarily vocal;5) Language is Human Specific;6) Language is Used for Communication.13. What are the major differences between Speech and Writing?Answer: Linguists regard the spoken languages as primary, not the written.1) Speech is prior to writing historically.2) Genetically, children always learn to speak before they learn to write.This is not to deny the importance of writing:1) With writing, messages can be carried through space.2) With writing, messages can be carried through time.3) Oral messages are subject to misunderstanding distortion.Everything considered, speech is believed to be more representative of human language than writing. Written language has a life of its own. Speech has the restriction of both time and space.14. What are the major differences between Competence and Performance?Answer: This distinction was proposed by American linguist Chomsky in the 1950s.Competence refers to the knowledge that native speakers have of their language as system of abstract formal relations. That is the ideal language user’s knowledge of the rules of his language.Performance refers to what we do when we speak or listen, that is, the actual realization of this knowledge in utterances.A speaker’s competence is stable but his performance is often influenced by psychological and social factors.16. What may language varieties include? Describe them clearly.Answer: Language varieties may include lingua franca, pidgin, and creole.(1) Lingua franca通用语------ the general term that serves as a means of communication between different groups of speakers. It can be internationally used language like English, or the mother tongue of one of the groups.(2) Pidgin洋泾浜------ a contact language that arises in situations where speakers of different languages can not understand each other’s first language or native language and, thus, need to develop a common means of communication. Linguistically, pidgins are characterized by a limited vocabulary, a greater use of paraphrase and metaphor, a simplified phonological system, and a reduced morphology and syntax.(3) Creole 克里奥尔语------ creoles are former pidgins whose functional and grammatical limitations and simplification have been eliminated and which now function as full-fledged, standardized native languages.17. What is dialect and its subdivisions of a language?Answer: Dialect refers to any regional, social or ethnic variety of a language. All languages spoken by more than one small homogeneous community are found to consist of two or more dialects.Dialects are subdivisions of a language.1) Regional Dialects --- the language variety used in a geographical region. When people are separated from each other geographically, dialectal diversity develops.2) Social Dialects --- is used to describe differences in speech associated with various social groups or classes. Whereas regional dialects are geographically based, social dialects originate among social groups and are related to a variety of factors. Social dialect could be further distinguished by gender, age, ethnic group, religion, and class.3) Standard Dialect--- refers to a special variety of language that has no connection with a particular region or social class.18. What are register and the three parameters?Answer: Register refers to the functional variety of language that is defined according to its use in context. Registers vary according to the three parameters of context: field, tenor and mode (Halliday, 1978).(1) Field refers to the social action. It involves what is happening, the nature of the social action that is taking place and what the participants are engaged in. Field is the linguistic reflection of the role of the language use with a definite purpose in the situation in which a text has occurred. (2) Tenor refers the role structure. It involves: who is taking part, the nature of the participants, their status and roles, and the type of role relationship between the participants.(3) Mode refers to the linguistic channel and the rhetorical mode. Mode reflects the relationship of the language use to the medium of transmission.15. What are the Leech’s Seven Types of Meaning? Describe them clearly.Answer: According to Leech (1981), there exist seven types of meaning, five of which are included in the associative meaning.(1) Conceptual meaning: 概念意义it is called “denotative”or “cognitive”meaning. This refers to the definition given in the dictionary. For example, man can be defined by the contrastive features [+Human], [+Male], [+Adult], as distinct from girl, which can be defined as [+Human], [-Male], [-Adult].(2) Associative meaning:联想意义it refers to the meaning associated with the conceptual meaning, which can be further divided into following five types.(i) Connotative meaning. 内涵意义This is the communicative value attributed to an expression over and above is purely conceptual meaning. For example, woman with unappreciable properties such as frail, prone to tears, cowardly, irrational, inconstant, as well as virtues like gentle, compassionate, hardworking, sensitive.(ii) Social meaning: it is refers o what is communicated of the social circumstances of language use, including variations like dialect, time, topic, and style.(iii) Affective meaning:情感意义it is what is communicated of the feelings and attitudes of the speaker/ writer towards the listener/reader/and /or what he or she is talking about. E.g. idiot conveys one’s despise or describes sth. as “marvelous”to express o ne’s positive evaluation.(iv) Reflected meaning: it is the meaning when we associate one sense of an expression with another. For example, the word dear in certain context is used in the sense “expensive” but also alludes to the sense of “beloved”.(v) Collocative meaning搭配意义: This refers to what is communicated though association with words which tends to occur in the environment of another words. Both pretty and handsome can be used to mean “good-looking”but differ in the range of nouns with which they can co-occur or collocate. For example, pretty can go with girl, woman, flower, garden, color, village, etc. while handsome can collocate with boy, man, car, car, vessel, overcoat, airliner, typewriter, etc.(3) Thematic meaning 主题意义This is what is communicated by the way in which the message is organized in terms of order and emphasis.。

语言学名词解释
语言学名词解释1、语言:语言是一个音义结合的符号系统,是人类独有的、最重要的交际工具,同时也是思维工具。
2、言语:言语就是说话和所说出来的话。
话(言语)都是由某种语言的词按照这种语言的规则组合起来的,它有声音和意义两个方面,但它毕竟不是这种语言本身,而说话即运用语言的行为也不是语言本身。
3、音素:从语音的自然属性角度划分出来的最小语音单位。
是用对比的方法从音节中切分出来的。
音素的不同取决于音质的不同,i和ü音质不同,所以是两个音素。
4 、音位:音位是特定语言或方言中具有区别词的语音形式进而区别意义作用的最小语音单位。
分音质音位和非音质音位两种类型。
5 、音节:音节是自然感觉到的最小单位。
但还不是最小的语音单位。
音节是语音结构的基本单位,也是自然感觉到的最小语音片断。
音节是由音素构成的,一个音节可以由一个音素构成,如汉语的“阿”[A]:也可以由几个音素构成,如汉语的“钱”[??ian]。
如果说音素一般人在自然状态下是感觉不到的话,那音节则是能感觉到的,比方说“走”[tsou],,一般汉族人都能感到是一个音节,至于问它包含几个音素,那是专业人员的事,一般人不一定知道。
6 、国际音标:国际语音学会1888年制定并开始使用的一套音标符号,是目前世界上最通行的记录音素的符号。
其制定的基本原则是:一个音素只用一个音标表示,一个音标只表示一个音素。
7 、音位变体:音位变体是同一个音位的不同的变异形式,是音位在特定语音环境中的具体体现或具体代表。
音位变体又可分为“条件变体”和“自由变体”。
8 、区别特征:就是一个音位与另一个音位相互区别的发音特征。
9 、语流音变:语流音变就是音位与音位组合时,受邻音的影响或由于说话时快慢、高低和强弱的不同而产生的语音变化。
常见的语流音变有同化、异化、弱化和脱落。
10 、语素:语素是语言单位中最小的音、义结合体,也是最小的语法单位。
根据是否直接成词可分为成词语素、不成词语素两种;根据是否具有词汇意义分实语素和功能语素两类。
语言学概论名词解释
语言学:是以语言作为专门研究对象的一门独立的科学;从方法上分为历史语言学、比较语言学、历史比较语言学、描写语言学;从研究对象上可分为个别语言学和普通语言学;19C 初的历史比较语言学标志着语言学的诞生。
语文学:是为给古代文化遗产,即政治历史文学等方面的经典书面著作作注释,目的是使人们可以读懂古书的一门尚未独立的学科。
“小学”:中国传统的语文学,围绕阐释和解读先秦典籍来展开研究,形成了文字学、音韵学、训诂学,分别探讨和研究汉字的字形、字音、字义。
专语语言学:以某种具体的语言为研究对象的语言学。
共时语言学、历时语言学:根据语言体系的稳固和变化,把语言研究分为共时的和历时的研究,。
共时语言学研究的是在特定时期内相对稳固的语言体系,如对现代汉语的研究;历时语言学研究的则是描写语言体系的历史演变,如对汉语发展史的研究。
普通语言学:是对人类语言从理论方面进行研究的一门学科,它探索各种语言所共有的规律以及各种语言在结构上的共同特点。
历史语言学:用历史的方法来考察语言的历史演变、研究它的变化规律的语言学。
比较语言学:用比较的方法,对不同的语言进行对比研究,找出它们相异之处或共同规律的语言学。
表层结构、深层结构:表层结构和深层结构相对,表层结构赋予句子以一定的语音形式,即通过语音形式所表达出来的那种结构,表层结构是由深层结构转换而显现的;深层结构是赋予句子以一定的语义解释的那种结构。
索绪尔:现代语言学的创始人,代表著作是《普通语言学教程》。
(简单要加补充) 语言的社会功能语言:就其本质而言,语言是一种音义结合的符号系统;就其社会功能来说,语言是一种特殊的社会现象,是人类最重要的交际工具和必不可少的思维工具。
言语:是对语言的运用,是语言的行为和结果。
说话:是人们运用语言工具表达思想所产生的结果。
思维:是人脑能动地反映客观现实的机能和过程。
根据思维活动的不同形态可分为三种类型:直观动作思维、形象思维、抽象思维。
语言学的名词解释
语言学的名词解释引言语言学是研究语言的结构、规律和变化的学科。
作为一门学科,语言学涉及广泛的领域,涵盖了词汇、语法、语音、语义等多个方面。
在语言学研究中,有许多重要的名词需要解释,这些名词有助于我们理解语言学的基本概念和理论。
本文将介绍几个语言学中常用的名词,并对其进行解释。
语音学1. 语音语音是指人类使用声音来进行交流和表达意思的能力。
在语音学中,语音是指语言的声音单位,包括语音的产生、分类和描述等方面。
2. 语音学语音学是研究语音的学科。
它研究语音的产生、传播、感知和分类等问题,对语音的音素、音节、音系等进行描述和分析。
3. 音素音素是语言中最小的音位单位。
一个音素可以通过替换使一个音与另外一个音有所区别。
音素可用于建立音位对比,对研究语音的差异和系统性做出描述。
4. 音节音节是语言中的基本语音单位。
它由一段连续的声音组成,包括一个或多个音素。
音节在构成词语时具有重要的作用,不同语言对音节的组合和结构有不同的规律。
语法学1. 语法语法是描述语言结构和规则的学科。
它研究语言中单词和句子之间的关系,以及语言的句法规则。
语法可以分为句法、词法、句子成分等多个层面。
2. 句法句法是语法学中研究句子结构和组织的分支。
它研究句子的成分和关系,包括主谓结构、宾语、修饰语等。
3. 词法词法是语法学中研究词汇和词法规则的分支。
它研究词汇的构成和分类,包括词根、词缀、词义等方面。
4. 句子成分句子成分是组成句子的不可再分的最小单位。
在句子中,包括主语、谓语、宾语、定语、状语等多个句子成分,它们各自具有不同的语法功能。
语义学1. 语义语义是研究词义和语言意义的学科。
它研究词汇和句子的意义,以及语言表达的信息和引申。
2. 语义学语义学是研究语言意义的学科。
它研究语言中的词义、句义、语境等方面的问题,揭示词语和句子的真正含义。
3. 词义词义是一个词所具有的意义。
在语义学中,词义可以通过定义、例句和语境等方式来解释和理解。
