(1) (2) (3) (4) 二、 Vocabulary 词汇的定义

All the words in a language make up what is generally known as vocabulary.

一般来说,词汇指的是一种语言里所有单词的总和。 词的总和构成语言的

词汇。词与词汇之间的关系是个体与总体之间的关系。 三、

Sound&Meaning 发音和意义

The connection between the sound (form) and meaning is arbitrary ( 任意的 ) and conventional. 二者的关系是约定俗成、随意的

四、 Sound & Form 发音和形式

(正字的) (1) The written form of a natural language is the orthographical form.

record of the oral 自然语言的书写形式是口语形式的书写记录。

发音与形式不同的原因: (2) The reasons of differences occur between sound and form: ① ② 英语字母表来自罗马

English alphabet was adopted from the Romans 发音改变快 the pronunciation has changed more rapidly than spelling over the years. 速

③ ④ Differences created by professional scribes. 专业抄写员的不同

Chapter 3

一、Morphemes 词素

(1) 词素的定义:

It is the smallest functioning unit in the composition of words.

语素是最小的有意义的单位。它是语言中最小的构词单位。

(2) 词素的特点:

①All the morphemes have their own meanings, but they cannot be further divided,

所有的词素都有自己的意义;它们不能再细分了,否

otherwise they will not make any sense.

则将会没有任何意义。

②词素可能会有一些变。

Morphemes may have some variants. e.g. - ation. May also be

-tion, -sion,-ion, but they belong to the same suffix because they have the same meaning and

grammatical function.

形素和词素变体

二、Morphs and Allomorphs

(1) 形素的定义:

The phonetic or orthographic strings or segments which realize morphemes are termed

‘mor 体现词素的语音串和拼写字节被称为形素。

(2) 形素与词素的关系:

Morphemes are abstract units, which are realized in speech by discrete units known as morphs.

词素是抽象的单位,是由分立的形素在话语中具体实现的。

(3) 词素变体:

An allomorph refers to a member of a set of morphs, which represent one morpheme.

词素变体指一套形素中的一个成员,表征一个词素。

总结:语言中最小的不可再分的意义单位是词素。

morpheme 又可称为形位、语素等。词素是抽象的,它是

通过形素morph 表现出来的。词素还有变体形式,在语

言学中称为词素变体allomorph 。

三、Classifying Morphemes 词素分类

根据能否独立出现分类

(1) in terms of their capacity of occurring alone

Free vs. bound morphemes 自由词素/ 粘着词素

Free morphemes( 自由词素):

?

Morphemes which are independent of other morphemes are free. Free morphemes have

complete meanings in themselves and can be used as free grammatical units in sentences.

自由词素是能独立运用的词素,它有完整的意义,在句中充当一个自由的语法单位。

举例:man, wind, open, tour

自由词素都是词根, 也叫自由词根, 能用作词或作为构成新词的构词要素。

?

Bound morphemes( 粘着词素):

Morphemes which cannot occur as separate words are bound. They are bound to other

morphemes to form words or to perform a particular grammatical function.

粘着词素不能独立成词,只能依附于其他词素上以构成词或担当一定的语法功能。

粘着词素包括词根(粘着词根)和词缀。

举例:bound root: -dict -, -ced-

affix: -ion, -ist, -ic

根据能否构成新词分类

(2) on the basis of the capacity of forming new words

Derivational vs. inflectional morphemes 派生词素/ 屈折词素

Derivational morphemes( 派生词素)

?

Derivational morphemes are used to derive new words when they are added to another morpheme. In English derivatives and compounds are all formed by such morphemes.

派生词素附着于其它词素可派生出新词。英语中派生词都是由这样的词素构成的。

派生词素的特点:

改变词干的意义和词性表明单

词内的语义出现在一些词类里

的部分语素中

在任何屈折词缀添加之前出现

Inflectional morphemes( 屈折词素)

?

Inflectional morphemes indicate the syntactic relationships between words and function as grammatical markers. Inflectional morphemes are confined to suffixes.

屈折词素作为语法标记表示词的语法意义,

屈折词素的特点:不改变词干的意义和词

性表明句子中不同单词的句法和语义

关系

出现于一些大的词类里所有语素中

出现于单词的边缘

屈折语素只限于词缀。

on a semantic and syntactic basis 根据语义和语法分类

Content/lexical vs. grammatical morphemes 实义词素/ 语法词素

(3)

Lexical 词汇/ content 实义morphemes are morphemes which have a lexical content and are used for the construction of new words as in compound words and derivational morphemes

such as–s h-ii z p e,.

实义词素是拥有词汇意义并且用来构造新词,就像复合词和派生词。

?Grammatical morphemes function primarily as grammatical markers. They encompass both inflectional affixes( -s) and free morphemes ( in, and, do, have

语法词素主要作为语法标记,包含屈折词缀和自由词素。

四、Identifying Morphemes 词素的识别

How to identify morphemes?

They should be identifiable by their forms, meaning and distribution.

他们应该通过形式、意义、分布来识别。

functional words)

五、Morphemization and New Morphemes 词素化和新词素

(1) Morphemization is the process of creating a morpheme using a word, or part of a word.

词素化是通过一个词或者词的一部分来创造一个词素的过程。

(2) two ways of creating new morphemes:

①clipping

? ?front clipping

back cliping

e.g. e-, info-, and docu -

e.g. -net(from internet), -gate(from watergate)

②using an old form as a morpheme e.g. -speak (Clinton speak)

六、 Morpheme and Word -formation 词素和构词

In word -formation, morphemes are labeled root, stem, base and affix.

在构词法中 , 语素被分为词根、词干、词基和词缀。

① Affixes are forms that are attached to words or word elements to modify meaning or

function. All affixes are bound morphemes.

词缀都是粘着词素,依附于单词或其他构词材料构成新词或表示词的语法意义。

? Two types of affixes:

Inflectional affixes and Derivational affixes

屈折词缀和派生词缀

② A root is that part of a word form that remains when

all inflectional and derivational

affixes have been removed.

词根是所有屈折词缀和派生词缀被去掉后所剩余的那部分。

③ A stem is that part of the word

-form which remains when all inflectional affixes have been removed .

词干是所有屈折词缀被去掉后所剩余的那部分。

④ A base refers to a form to which affixes of any kind (both derivational and inflectional) can be added . It can be a root or a stem.

词基是任何一种词缀都可加在上面的形式。 它与词根有区

别, 因为它是可以从派生角度进行分析的形式,

在上面可以加上派生词缀。 因为派生词缀和屈折词缀都可 但是 词根则不容许做进一步的分析 。词基与词干也是不同的, 以加在词基上,而 举例:

individualistic

individualist

只有屈折词缀可以加在词干 上。

[stem, base] individual [stem, base] dividual [base]

divide [root, stem, base]

For examples, "coup d'état”, "résumé”, "régime”, etc. are all Aliens of French borrowings. 2. denizens Denizens are easily associated with already existing native words. They are successfully assimilated. They are foreign words which have been conformed to native English in accent, form (spelling) and even in adoption of an English affix. E.g. uncertain (the English prefix un- + certain, French by origin). 3. homophones Homophones are words identical in sound but different in spelling and meaning, e.g. sun, son; piece and peace; etc. 4. metonymy Metonymy is one way of meaning transference whereby the name of one thing is changed for that of another, to which it is related by association of ideas.

英语词汇学笔记--名词解释篇

Morpheme --- A morpheme is the minimal significant element in the composition of words. 3. Free morphemes or Content morphemes (Free root)--- They are morphemes that may constitute words by themselves : cat, walk. 4. Bound Morphemes or Grammatical morphemes--- They are morphemes that must appear with at least one other morpheme, either bound or free : Catts, walk+ing. 5. Bound root --- A bound root is that part of the word that carries the fundamental meaning just like a free root. Unlike a free root, it is a bound form and has to combine with other morphemes to make words. Take -dict- for example: it conveys the meaning of "say or speak" as a Latin root, but not as a word. With the prefix pre-(=before) we obtain the verb predict meaning "tell beforehand". 6. Affixes --- Affixes are forms that are attached to words or word elements to modify meaning or funtion. 7.

语言学考研笔记整理(共16页)

语言学考研笔记整理 一、语言和语言学 1.语言的本质 (1)自然属性:语言从本质上来说是一套符号系统。 (2)社会属性:是人类最重要的交际工具。 (3)心理属性:是人类进行思维的工具。 语言的自然属性从本质上来说是一套符号系统。 2.什么是符号?语言符号和其它符号的不同特点。 符号:用甲事物指代乙事物,甲即乙的符号。 语言符号的特点:①有声的;②成系统的;③分层次的装置,语音→音素→音节→语素→词;④音义结合是任意的,是约定俗成的(不可论证,无理据);⑤线条性:语言符号在输出时是一个接一个的,不能全盘端出。 语言符号与客观事物的关系。 3.语言最基本的社会功能:交际功能。 文字:是在语言的基础上产生的,是记录语言的书写符号。 符号:是形式和内容(意义)的统一体。 (1)语言符号的形式:声音(语音)是语言的物质外壳,听觉可感知。 (2)语言符号的内容:意义(语义)是人们对现实现象的概括反映。 (99年填空) 4.语言符号的特点:①任意性和强制性;②线条性;③系统性。 人的语言和动物语言有何不同? 简要说明语言符号的任意性和强制性。 答:①任意性:语言符号的音与义之间没有必然的、本质的联系,它们的结合是由社会“约定俗成”的。表现:某种具体语言的音义结合关系;形成人类语言多样性的一个重要原因。②强制性:符号的任意性知识是就创制符号时的情形说的。符号一旦进入交际,也就是某一语音形式与某一意义结合起来,表示某一特定的现实现象以后,它对使用它的社会成员来说就具有了强制性。任何人不能借口任意性而随意改变音义之间的结合关系。符号的音义结合是社会约定俗成的,它们之间的关系改变也要由社会来决定。
