英语词汇学200要点(不过都难啊!)

1. 外来词分为四类:1 Denizens ,cup from cuppa , port form portus 2) Aliens garage , d cor 3) Translatione -oans e.g. long time no see 4) Sema ntic- loa ns.e.g. dream.

2. Motivation 分类:onomatopoeic motivation, morphological motivation, semantic motivation, etymological motivation. Types of meaning: grammatical ?& lexical ?;con ceptual ?& associative ?(conno tative ?,stylistic ?,affective ?,collocative ?,)

多义关系及两种研究方法:Polysemy is a com mon feature peculiar to all n atural la nguage that one word has two or more sen ses or meanin gs. Diachr onic approach is an approach to polysemy which studies how a word derived its differe nt meanings from its primary meaning in the course of time.

3.Synchronic approach is an approach to polysemy which studies the coexiste nee of various meanings of the same word in a certa in historical period of time.

4. Primary meaning is the only meaning that a word had when it was first created.

5. Derived meanings are the meanings that a word gets from the primary meaning at differe nt stages of its developme nt in the course of time.

6. 同形同音异义关系Homonymy is one of the features of words that a word is differe nt in meaning from ano ther, but either ide ntical both in sound and spelli ng or ide ntical only in sound or spelli ng with the other Homonyms gen erally fall into three classes: perfect homonyms (same n ame); homographs (same spell ing) and homoph on es( some sound). Perfect homonyms are those words ide ntical both in sound and spelli ng, but differe nt in meaning, e.g. bear /bea/ (n) a large heavy ani mal; bear

/bea/ (v) to put up with. Homographs are the words ide ntical only in spelli ng but differe nt in sound and meaning, e.g. saw / / (v) to scatter seeds; sow /sau/ (n) female adult pig. Homoph ones refer to the words ide ntical only in sound but differe nt in spelli ng and meaning, e.g. dear /dia/ (n) a loved pers on; deer /dia/ (n) a kind of ani mal.

7. 同形同音异义词与多义词的区另U Perfect homonyms and polysema nts are fully ide ntical with regard to spell ing and pronun ciati on. This creates the problem of differe ntiati on. The fun dame ntal differe nee betwee n homonyms and polysema nts lies in the fact that the former refers to differe nt words which happe n to share the same form and the latter is the one and same word which has several dist in guishable meanin gs. One importa nt criteri on is to see their etymology, i.e. homonyms are from differe nt sources whereas a polysema nt is from the same source which has acquired differe nt meanings in the course of developme nt. The sec ond prin cipal con siderati on is sema ntic related ness. The various meanings of a polysema nt are correlated and conn ected to one cen tral meaning to a greater or lesser degree, e. g. n eck (See 6.1 Polysemy) . On the other hand, mea nings of differe nt homonyms have no thi ng to do with one ano ther. I n dicti on aries, a polysema nt has its meanings all listed un der one headword whereas homonyms are listed as separate en tries.

8. 同义关系Synonyms are words which share the same or n early the same meaning with each other but differe nt in sound and spelli ng. There are absolute synonyms and relative synonyms which result from borrow ing, dialects and regi onal

En glish, figurative and euphemistic use of words, coin cide nee with idiomatic expressi ons. There exists the differe nee betwee n or among synonyms in terms of their deno tati on, conno tati on or applicati on. Absolute synonyms or complete synonyms are words which are ide ntical in meaning in all its aspects. Relative synonyms or n ear-s ynonyms are similar or n early the same in deno tati on, but embrace differe nt shades of meaning or differe nt degrees of a give n quality.

9.Sources of Synonyms l) Borrow ing 2)Dialects and regi onal En glish 3) Figurative and euphemistic use of words 4) Coin cide nee with idiomatic expressi ons

10. 如何区分同义词?IDiffere nee in deno tati on2 Difference in conno tati on 3 Difference in applicati on

11. What are the characteristics of antonyms?

12.1) Antonyms are classified on the basis of sema ntic oppositi on 2) A word which has more tha n one meaning can have more tha n one antonym. 3) Antonyms differ in sema ntic in clusi on. 4) Con trary terms are gradable antony ms, differi ng in degree of inteni sty, so each has its own corresp onding opposite.

13.上下义关系:Hyponymy deals with the relationship of semantic inclusion.That is, the meaning of a more specific word is in eluded in that of ano ther more gen eral word. Superordi nates refer to some gen eral words; subord in ates denote those more specific words. Hyponymy can be described in terms of tree-like graphs, with higher-order superordi nates above the lower subord in ates. But their status either as superord in ate or subord in ate is relative to other terms. For example, horse, dog, pig are subordi nates in relati on to ani mal, but superord in ates of mare, hound and boar, Ani mal itself becomes a subord in ate of

creature. And creature in tur n becomes

14. 词义变化的种类There are five types of meaning, changes exte nsion, n arrow ing, degradati on, elevati on, and tran sfer among which exte nsion and n arrowi ng are the most com mon. Chan ges in meaning can be acco un ted for from extra-li nguistic factors (historical reas on, class reas on, and psychological reas on) and in tra-l in guistic factors (shorte ning, the in flux of borrow ing, and an alogy).

15. 词义的扩大Exte nsion is a process by which a word with a specialized sense is gen eralized to cover a broader or less

16. definite https://www.360docs.net/doc/ab11686683.html,pare the following ;词义的缩小Narrowing is a process by which a word of wider meaning acquires

a specialized sense 词义的升华Elevation is a process by which a word moves from a derogatory or neutral sense to a neutral and/or appreciative sense 词义的降格Degradation is a process by which a word of reputation slides into a pejorative use,;词义的转移Transfer is a process by which a word denoting one thing changes to refer to a different but related thi ng. Paper serves as an example. This word formerly deno ted an Africa n pla nt papyrus, which was once used to make paper. I n moder n times, paper is made from rags, wood, straw and the like, but the product has retai ned the same

n ame. There is associated tra nsfer. There are other kinds of tran sfer, such as, con crete to abstract, abstract to con crete and tran sfer of sen sati on.

17. 语境的种类:非语言语境。语言语境:词汇语境和语法语境。There are two types of contexts: lin guistic con text and extra-li nguistic (or non-li nguistic con text). Extra-li nguistic con text refers to those situati ons and features which are not directly a part of the Ian guage in use but which either con tribute in con vey ing a message or have an in flue nee on Ian guage use. Lin guistic or I ntra-li nguistic con text is further subdivided into lexical con text and grammatical con text. By lexical

con text we mea n the words that occur together with the word in questi on. By grammatical con text we mea n that the meanings of a word may be in flue need by the structure in which it occurs.

18. 语境的作用:Three major functions of context: elim in ati on of ambiguity, in dicati on of referen ts, provisi on of clues for in ferr ing word-mea ning. Con text an be summed up as follows:1) defi niti on 2) expla nati on 3) example 4) synonymy 5) Antonymy 6)hyp onymy 7) releva nt details 8) word structure

19. 英语习语的特点The characteristics of idioms in clude sema ntic unity and structural stability.

20. 英语习语的分类Accord ing to the criteri on of their grammatical functions, we classify them into idioms nominal in

n ature, idioms adjectival in n ature, idioms verbal in n ature, idioms adverbial in n ature, and sentence idioms. The stylistic features are characterized with colloquialisms, sla ng, and literary expressi ons.

21. 英语习语的使用The use of idioms i nvolves their stylistic features, rhetorical features , and variati ons of idioms.

22. 英语习语的修辞色彩The rhetorical features of idioms are represented with phonetic manipulation ( alliteration 头韵法and rhyme 叠韵),lexical manipulation ( reiteration 复用,repetition 重复and juxtaposition 反义词叠用),figures of speech ( simile 明喻,metaphor 暗喻,metonymy 转喻,synecdoche借代,personification 拟人,euphemism 委婉)

23. 英语习语的变异形式In the variati ons, additi on, deleti on, replaceme nt, positi on-shift ing and dismemberi ng are

in volved in the cha nges in idioms con stitue nts .

24. Associative meaning :1) associative meaning is the sec on dary meaning suppleme nted to the con ceptual meaning. 2)It differs from the con ceptual meaning in that it is ope n-en ded and in determ in ated. 3)It is liable to the in flue nee of such factors as culture , experie nee, religio n, geographical regi on, class backgro un d,educati on, etc. 4)Associative meaning comprises four types : conno tative, stylistic, affective, and collocative.

25. Metonymy 禾口Synecdoche 修饰有何区另S ? Both metonymy and synecdoche involve substitution of names, yet they differ in that the former is a case of using the n ame of one thi ng for ano ther closely associated with it and the latter is that of substitut ing part for the whole and vice versa.

26. 词典的种类There are four types of dictionaries with their features mentioned in this parts: (1) monolingual and bili ngual dicti on aries, (2) lin guistic and en cyclopedic dicti on aries, (3) un abridged, desk and pocket dicti on aries, (4) specialized dictio naries. A mon oli ngual dictio nary is a dictio nary which is writte n in one Ian guage.

27. A bilingual dictionary is one in which two Ian guages are in volved.

28. A linguistic dictionary is a dictio nary which aims at defi ning words and explai ning their usages in the Ian guage.

29. An encyclopedic dictionary is one in which en cyclopedic in formati on is provided along with the gen eral in formati on as

in a lin guistic dictio nary .

30. An encyclopedia is a diet ionary which only provide en cyclopedic in formati on concerning each headword.

31. An unabridged dictionary is an un shorte ned dict ionary with at least 200,000 headwords that can supply a great qua ntity of basic, in formati on about a word.

32. A desk dictionary is a medium-sized dict ionary con tai ning words ranging from 50,000 to 150,000.

33. A pocket dictionary is a dict ionary which has about 50,000 en tries or fewer.

第一章

37. 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 Ianguage;2)

A sound unity or a give n sound ;3) a un it of meanin g;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

38. 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, blackmailma nageme nt 可以次划分为man age 禾口-ment misfort une 可以次划分为mis-禾口fortun eblackmail 次划分为black 禾口mail

39. What is the relationship between sound and meaning?

1) There is ‘ no logical relati on ship betwee n the sound and actual thin g.e.g. dog. Cat

2) The relati on ship betwee n them is conven ti on al.

3) In differe nt Ian guages the same con cept can be represe nted by differe nt soun ds.

40. What is relationship between sound and form?

1) The writte n form of a n atural la nguage is the writte n record of the oral form. Naturally the writte n form should agree with the oral form, such as En glish Ian guage.

2) This is fairly true of En glish in its earliest stage i.e. Old En glish

3) With the developme nt of the Ian guage, more and more differe nces occur betwee n the two.

41. What are the great changes that causes illogical relationship or irregularity between sound and form?

1) The internal reas on for this is that the En glish alphabet was adopted from the Roma ns, which does not have a separate letter tore prese nt each sound in the Ian guage so that some letters must do double duty or work together in comb in ati on.

2) Another reason is that the pronunciation has changed more rapidly than spelling over the years, and in some cases the two have draw n farapart.

3) A third reason is that some of the differences were created by the early scribes.

4) Fin ally comes the borrow ing, which is an importa nt cha nnel of en richi ng the En glish vocabulary.

要记住以上四句话中的关键词:

1) in flue need by Roma ns2) Pronun ciati on cha nged3) early scribes4) borrow ing

42. 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), kimo no

(Jap)外来语对英语造成的最大的影响就是‘ sound and form不一致。

43. What is vocabulary? Vocabulary refers to the total nu mber of the words in a Ian guage, but it can sta nd for all the words used in a particular historical period. Vocabulary also refers to all the words of a give n dialect, give n book, a give n discipli ne and the words possessed by an in dividual pers on.

45. What is the classification of words? How to classify words in linguistics?

Three criteria :1) By use of freque ncy 2) By no ti on 3) By orig in

By use of frequency 可划分为:1) The basic word stock 2) Non basic word vocabulary

By notion 可划分为:1) Content word2) Functional word Content words are also known as notional words . (Content words 的另U

称)Functional words are also known as empty words, or form words. (Functional words 的另U称)Functional words

possesses a characteristic of basic word stock, i.e. stability 46.Accord ing to Stuart Roberts on ,et al (1957),* ( 年年考试必考) t he nine functional words , namely :and , be , have , it , of , the , to , will ,you

47. What are the characteristics of basic word stock?

1) All national character2) Stability3) Productivity4) Polysemy5) Collocability

要把握住‘ All natio nal character词,就是和我们日常生活息息相关的,最普通词

48. 稳定性是基本词的一个很大特点,请你举例说明? e.g. ma n, woma n , fire, water …e.g. machi ne, video, teleph one bow, chariot , kni ght Stability is relative, not absolute.

49. 根据词的use frequency划分出的基本词之外,还有一类词叫作None basic vocabulary,非基本词有几大特点?或者是

几大分类 ? 1) Termino logy e.g. son ata, algebra2) Jarg on e.g. Bottom line ( Jarg on ) 3) Slang e.g. smoky, bear ( Slang ) 4)

Argot e.g. persuader5) Dialectal words e.g. stati on ( AusE = ranch ) bluid ( ScotE= blood)6) Archaisms e.g. wilt (will)7) Neologisms e.g. email ( Neologisms )beaver 是girl 的slang 表达方式,但是二者之间存在着Stylistic differenee

50. Which constitutes the larger number among English vocabulary, content or functional words ? Answer : Content words What is n ative words? An swer : (1) By origi n, En glish words can be classified into n ative words and borrowed words.(2) Native words are words brought to Brita in in the fifth cen tury by the Germa n tribes: the An gles, the Saxons, and the Jutes, thus know asA nglo-Sax on words. (3) Words of An glo-Sax on origi n are small in nu mber ,am oun ti ng to roughly 50,000 to 60,000, but they form the mai nstream of the basic word stock and sta nd at the core of the Ian guage

51. 什么叫borrowed words?Answer: (1) words taken over from foreign Ianguages are know as borrowed words or loan words or borrow ings in simple terms.(2) It is estimated that En glish borr owings con stitute 80 perce nt of the moder n En glish vocabulary (3) The En glish Ian guage has vast debts」n any dictio nary some 80% of the en tries are borrowed.

52 什么叫Denizens?Denizens are words borrowed early in the past and now are well assimilated into the English Ianguage. In other words they have come to conform to the En glish way of pronun ciati on and spelli ng, such as port from portus

(L). ‘ Denizefts例子都要记:Port from portus (L), cup from cuppa (L),shift from skipta (ON), shirt from skyrta (ON), change

from cha ngier (F), pork from porc (F).

53 什么叫Translation-loans ?T ranslation-loans are words and expressions formed form the existing material in the English

Ian guage but modeled on the patter ns take n from ano ther Ian guage, such as ‘ long time no see from haojiumeij

54 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, En glish has borrowed a new meaning for an exist ing word in the Ian guage ,such as the word dream ,which originally meant ' joy ' and ‘ music ' , and its modern meaning from boerotoedslate

第二章:The development of the English vocabulary

The In do-Europea n Lan guage Family It is assumed that the world has approximately 3,000(some put it5,000)la nguages ,which can be grouped into roughly 300 Ian guage families on the basis of similarities in their basic word stock and grammar .

In flect ional affixes : Affixes attached to the end of words to in dicate grammatical relati on ships are

in flect ion al, thus known as in flect ional morphemes. Derivational affixes: 1)derivati onal affixes are affixes added to other morphemes to create now words.2) Derivati onal affixes can be further divided into prefixes and suffixes. root : 1) a

root is the basic form of a word which cannot be further an alyzed without total loss of ide ntity. 2) the root, whether free or bound, gen erally carries the main comp onent of meaning in a word

3) a ' root is that part of a word form that remains when all inflectional and derivational affixes have been removed' stem? a stem may con sist of a si ngle root morpheme as in iron or of two root morphemes as in a compo und like han dcuff.

2) It can be a root morpheme plus one or more affixatio nal morphemes as in mouthful, un derestimate. 3) Therefore, a stem can be defi ned as a form to which affixes of any kind can be added.

Introduction 绪论 0.1 The nature and Domain of English lexicology 英语词汇学的定义及研究范围 Lexicology is a branch of linguistics, inquiring into the origins and meanings of words. 词汇学是语言学的一个分支,研究词汇的起源和意义。 English lexicology aims at investigating and studying the morphological structures of English words and word equivalents, their semantic structures, relations, historical development, formation and usages. 英语词汇学研究英语词汇的形态结构、词的对应及其语义结构、词义关系、词的历史演变、词的构成及词的用法等。 English lexicology is a theoretically-oriented course. 英语词汇学是一门理论性课程。 It is chiefly concerned with the basic theories of words in general and of English words in particular. 该课程主要论述词汇学的基本理论,特别是英语词汇的理论知识。 However, it is a practical course as well, for in the discussion, we shall inevitably deal with copious stocks of words and idioms, and study a great many usage examples. 但是,英语词汇学也是一门实践性课程,在该书的论述中,我们将遇到大量的词汇和习语,学习大量词汇用法实例。 Naturally, there will be a large quantity of practice involved. 当然,同时还要接触到大量的词汇练习。 0.2 Its Relation to Other Disciplines 英语词汇学与其它学科的关系 English lexicology itself is a subbranch of linguistics. 英语词汇学是语言学的一个分支。 But it embraces other academic disciplines, such as morphology, semantics, etymology, stylistics, lexicography. 但它却与其他学科相关,如形态学、语义学、词源学、文体学和词典学等。 Each of them has been established as a discipline in its own right. 而这些学科都各成一门学科。 Morphology is the branch of grammar which studies the structure or forms of words, primarily through the use of morpheme construct. 形态学是语法学的一个分支,主要通过运用词素(形位)结构研究词的结构或形式。 This is one of the major concerns of lexicology, for we shall discuss the inflections of words and word-formation and examine how morphemes are combined to form words and words to form sentences. 这是词汇学研究的主要内容之一,因为研究词汇就必需讨论的屈折变化和构词法,考察词素如何构成词、词如何构成句子。 Etymology is traditionally used for the study of the origins and history of the form and meaning of words. 词源学研究词的形式和意义的起源及其历史变化。 Modern English is derived from the languages of early Germanic tribes with a fairly small vocabulary. 现代英语源于词汇量颇小的古日尔曼语。 We shall study how this small vocabulary has grown into a huge modern English vocabulary and explain the changes that have taken place in the forms and meanings of words. 我们将研究这门词汇量很小的语言是如何发展成为词汇量庞大的现代英语,并解释英语词汇的形式和意义是如何变化的。 Stylistics is the study of style. 文体学研究文体。 It is concerned with the user’s choices of linguistic elements in a particular context for special effects. 主要对语用者在特定语境中如何选择语言要素(即如何选择用词、句型等)以达到特定的表达效果进行观察研究。 Among the areas of study: lexis, phonology, syntax, graphology, we shall concentrate on lexis, exploring the stylistic values of words. 在文体学所研究的词汇、音系学、句法学和书写法范围中,我们主要研究词汇,探讨词汇的文体价值。Lexicography shares with lexicology the same problems: the form, meaning, origins and usages of words, but they have a pragmatic difference. 词典学和词汇学探讨同样的问题:词汇的形式、意义、词汇的起源及用法,但两者在语用上还有差异。 A lexicographer’s task is to record the language as it is used so as to present the genuine picture of words to the reader, providing authoritative reference, whereas the student of lexicology is to acquire the knowledge and information of lexis so as to increase their lexical awareness and capacity of language use. 词典学家的任务是实录词汇的用法并把词汇用法的真实情形呈现给读者,为其提供权威性的参考;而词汇学家则是研究词汇的知识和信息,以增强读者对词汇的了解和语言的使用能力。 Though English lexicology has a wide coverage of academic areas, our task is definite and consistent. 英语词汇学的研究范围很大,但我们的任务是明确而系统的。 That is to study English words in different aspects and from different angles. 即从不同角度研究英语词汇的各个方面。0.3 Method of Study 英语词汇学的研究方法 There are generally two approaches to the study of words, namely synchronic and diachronic. 一般来说,词汇研究有两种

研究影响英语词汇语义变化的因素

研究影响英语词汇语义变化的因素 摘要:这篇论文的目的是分析影响英语词汇语义变化的因素。其原因是多种多样的。本文试图从词汇的角度阐释在不同的方面,词的语义变化,为何会发生词的语义变化。语义变化的原因是什么? 这篇文章主要介绍影响因素的两个方面:语外因素和语内因素。语外因素包括历史因素,阶级因素,心理因素,社会因素。语内因素包括词义扩大,词义缩小,褒义化,贬义化。 关键词:英语词汇;语内因素;语外因素 Abstract: This articler aims to analyze the influential factors that effect the semantic change of the English vocabulary. The reasons are various. From a lexical perspective,this paper analyzes the semantic change of words in different respects as why semantic change of words happens. What factors that influence the semantic change? This article mainly introduces two aspects of the factors: extra-linguistic factors and linguistic factors. Extra-linguistic factors contain historical factors, class factors, psychological factors, social factors. Linguistic factors consist of generalization, specialization, amelioration, pejoration, transference. Key words: English vocabulary; internal-linguistic factor; extra-linguistic factor 0. 引言 众所周知,人类社会在不断转变,语言作为人类交流和表达思想的工具也在发生变化。在语言发展的过程中,不断淘汰旧的词汇,而新的词汇如雨后春笋般出现。本文研究的重点就是词的语义变化,例如:从词汇的角度探讨语义变化的因素。通过从不同的方面分析语义变化,一些实际价值接踵而至:对于英语学习者而言获得更加完整的英语单词意义的理解相当有帮助。 考虑到英语词汇中语义变化的研究,很多语言学家致力于发现语义变化的规则,例如:Lehmann简要定义了词汇意义变化被定义为语义变化,因为我们需要定义语义学结构整体的特点。Sommerfelt 从社会环境的角度处理词的意义。然而Bloomfield 声明语义变化应该被定义为只是改变词汇意义的创新性。 然而,以前关于英语词汇语义变化的研究存在一些缺点。例如:很少谈论受因特网的影响,语义变化给英语带来的后果是没有空间来说明。因此,本文将会强调语义变化是如何发生的。 1. 语外因素 1.1 历史因素 由于语义学的原因一些词的意义被词义缩小或扩大。语义变化被看成是由于文化修饰
