Key: The limited range of sounds that are used in human language communication, . the speech sounds.

Key: a collection of abstract sound features, unlike a phone, (which is a speech unit), it is a phonological unit; allophones are actual realization of a phoneme in different phonetic context.

morphemes

Key: Inflectional morphemes are morphemes that are used to indicate the grammatical relations and categories, such as-ed,-(e)s,-est in English.

Key: Reference is what a linguistic form refers to in the real world; it is a matter of the relationship between the form and the reality. For example, if we say, "The dog is barking," we must be talking about a certain dog known to both the speaker and the hearer in the situation. The actual dog the word "dog" refers to in this particular situation is the reference of the word "dog".

act

Key: Locutionary act refers to the act of uttering words, phrases, and clauses. It is the act of conveying literal meaning by means of syntax, lexicon and phonology. For example, by saying "You have left the door wide open", the locutionary act performed by the speaker is that he has uttered all the words and expressed what the words literally mean.

Key: Hyponymy refers to the sense relation between a more general, more inclusive word and a more specific word. The word which is more general in meaning is called the superordinate, and the more specific words are called its hyponyms. Hyponyms of the same superordinate are co-hyponyms to each other.

dialect

Key: An ethnic dialect is a social dialect of a language, often cutting across regional differences. It is spoken mainly by a less privileged population that has experienced some form of social isolation, such as racial discrimination or segregation.

Key: Registers are language varieties appropriate for use in particular speech situations, in contrast to language varieties that are associated with the social or regional grouping of their customary users. For this reason, registers are also known as situational dialects.

10. linguistic context

Key: Linguistic context is concerned only with the probability of one word’s co-occurrence or collocation with another, which forms part of the “meaning”, and an important factor in communication.

11. competence

Key: According to Chomsky, competence refers to the ideal language user's knowledge of the rules of his language.

12. Diachronic linguistics

Key: Diachronic linguistics is the a way of referring to the approach which studies language change over

various periods of time and at various historical stages.

13. Allomorph

Key: The different phones that can represent a phoneme in different phonetic environments are called the allophones of that phoneme. Allophones are positional variants of a phoneme.

14. narrow transcriptions

Key: The way to transcribe speech sounds by using letter-symbol with diacritics to represent the finer differences between the variations of the same sound. This is called “narrow transcription”.

15. lexeme

Key: Lexeme is postulated as the abstract unit which refers to the smallest unit in the meaning system of a language that can be distinguished from other smaller units.

16. grapheme

Key: A grapheme is the minimal contrastive unit in the writing system of a language.

17. morpheme

Key: The morpheme is the smallest unit in terms of relationship between expression and content, a unit which cannot be divided without destroying or drastically altering the meaning, whether it is lexical or grammatical. 18. root

Key: A root is the base form of a word which cannot be further analyzed without total loss of identity.

19. assimilation

Key: Assimilation refers to the change of a sound as a result of the influence of an adjacent sound.

20. tone language

Key: Tones are pitch variations, which are caused by the differing rates of vibration of the vocal cords. In some languages, pitch variations can distinguish meaning just like phonemes. Such languages are called "tone languages".

21. ideolect

Key: Idiolect is a personal dialect of an individual speaker characteristic of his geographical location, social and educational background, and personal preference in using the language.

22. dialect

Key: Dialect takes into account all variations of a language related to the user, which mainly involves geographical, social and personal factors.

23. free variation

Key: If two sounds occurring in the same environment do not contrast, that is, the substitution of one for the other does not produce a different word form, but merely a different pronunciation of the same word, then the two sounds are in free variation.

24. perlocutionary act

Key: perlocutionary act is the making of a statement, offer, promise, etc. in uttering the sentence, such effects being special to the circumstances of utterance.

25. the maxim of quality

Key: The maxim of quality: Say what you believe to be true and that you have enough evidence for.

26. Diglossia

Key: Diglossia refers to the coexistence of two different varieties of the same language in a speech community with each serving a particular social function and used for a certain situations.

27. bilingualism

Key: Bilingualism refers to a linguistic situation in which two standard languages are use either by an individual or by a group of speakers.

28. code-switching

Key: A speaker does not necessarily have to follow a particular variety or dialect all the time in the course of communication. He may change from the standard language to the non-standard language, he may shift his subject matter which dominates the incidence of vocabulary, he may move from one point on the formality scale to another point. This linguistic behavior is referred to as code-switching.

29. tenor of discourse

Key: When we consider the variation relating to what the user is trying to do with language, whether teaching, persuading, advertising or instructing, we are dealing with addressee relationship, contextually categorized as tenor of discourse.

30. syntactic category

Key: Syntactic category refers to a word or phrase that performs a particular grammatical function such as the subject and object. Words and phrases are organized to the syntactic categories they belong to. Apart from sentences and clauses, a syntactic category usually refers to a word (called a lexical category) or a phrase (called a phrasal category) that performs a particular grammatical function. Constituents that can be substituted for one another without loss of grammaticality belong to the same syntactic category.

V. Discuss the following questions:

1. Explain the following definition of linguistics: Linguistics is the scientific study of language.

Key: Linguistics investigates not any particular language, but languages in general. Linguistic study is scientific because it is based on the systematic investigation of authentic language data. No serious linguistic conclusion is reached until after the linguist has done the following three things: observing the way language is actually used, formulating some hypotheses, and testing these hypotheses against linguistic facts to prove their validity.

2. What features of human language have been specified by C. Hockett to show that it is essentially different from any animal communication system

Key: Arbitrariness--- a sign of sophistication only humans are capable of

Creativity--- animals are quite limited in the messages they are able to send

Duality--- a feature totally lacking in any animal communication

Displacement--- No animal can “talk” about things removed from the immediate situation

Cultural transmisson--- Details of human language system are taught and learned while animals are born with capacity to send out certain signals as a means of limited communication.

3. What are the three branches of phonetics How do they contribute to the study of speech sounds

Key: Articulatory, auditory, and acoustic phonetics.

Articulatory phonetics describes the way our speech sounds and how they differ.

Auditory phonetics studies the physical properties of speech sounds, and reaches the important conclusion that phonetic identity is only a theoretical ideal.

Acoustic phonetics studies the physical properties of speech sounds, the way sounds travel from the speaker to the hear.

4. What is voicing and how is it caused

Key: An articulatory dimension of speech sound production. It distinguishes meaning in many languages such as English; therefore it is a phonological feature. It is caused by the vibration of the vocal cords.

5. What is a phone How is it different from a phoneme How are allophones related to a phoneme

Key: Phone--- a speech sound, a phonetic unit.

Phonology---a collection of abstract sound features, a phonological unit.

Allophones---actual realizations of a phoneme in different phonetic contexts.

6. What is a minimal pair and what is a minimal set Why is it important to identify the minimal set in a language

Key: Minimal pair---Two sound combination identical in every way except in one sound element that occurs in the same position.

Minimal set---A group of sound combinations with the above feature.

By identifying the minimal pairs or the minimal set of a language, a phonologist can identify its phonemes.

7. What are suprasegmental feature How do the major suprasegmental features of English function in conveying meaning

Key: Suprasengmental features---phonological features above the sound segment level.

The major suprasegmental features in English---word stress, sentence stress, intonation.

8. What are the main features of the English compounds

Key: Orthographically a compound can be written as one word, two separate words with or without a hyphen in between.

Syntactically, the meaning of a compound is idiomatic, not calculable from the meanings of all its components. Phonetically, the word stress of a compound usually falls on the first element.

9. Morpheme is defined as the smallest unit in terms of relationship between expression and content. Then is morpheme a grammatical concept or a semantic one What is its relation to phoneme Can a morpheme and a phoneme form an organic whole

Key: Since morpheme is defined as the smallest unit interms of relationship between expression and content, it at the same time covers the grammatical and the semantic aspect of linguistic unit. A morpheme may overlap with a phoneme, such as I , but usually not, as in pig, in which the morpheme is the whole word, . an independent, free morpheme, but the phonemes are/p/, /I /, and /g/.

10. Why is it important to know the relationships a sign has with others, such as syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations

Key: As the relation between a signifier and its signified is arbitrary, the value of a sign cannot be determined by itself. To know the identity of a sign, the linguist will have to know the signs it is used together with and those it is substitutable for. The former relation is known as syntagmatic and the latter paradigmatic.

11. How can the surface structure become the sole responsible structure for semantic interpretation

Key: This is mainly achieved by the introduction of trace theory. That is, after the movement of any element, there will be a trace left in the original position, which is represented by the better t in the tree diagram. And the deep structure information concerning the underlying syntactic relations between words, such as the subject in the passive is the logical object, will be captured by the trace in the surface structure.

12. Why do we say tree diagrams are more advantageous and informative than linear structure in analyzing the constituent relationship among linguistic elements Support your statement with examples.

Key: In addition to revealing a linear order, a constituent structure tree has a hierarchical structure that groups words into structural constituents and shows the syntactic category of each structural constituent, and consequently is believed to most truthfully illustrate the constituent relationship among linguistic elements. For example, the phrase " the old men and women" may have two interpretations, . the adjective "old” may modify the noun "men", or the following two nouns "men and women". Linear order analysis cannot tell this difference, so it is ambiguous. Whereas, the constituent or tree diagrams analysis can make this difference clear. So, we say tree diagrams are more advantageous and informative than linear structure analysis.

NP NP

NP NP NP NP

The old men and the women the old men and the old women

13. What is sense and what is reference How are they related

Key: Sense refers to the inherent meaning of a linguistic form, which is a collection of semantic meanings, abstract and decontextualized. Reference is what a linguistic form refers to in the real world; it is a matter of the relationship between the form and the reality.

14. Explain with examples “homonymy,”, “polysemy”, and “hyponymy”.

Key: Homonymy---identical in form (either in sound or in spellin, or in both) but different in meaning, . night-knight, lead n., bank (a financial institution)-bank (side of a river)

Polysemy---one form having more than one meaning, . earth our planet, the soil on its surface Hyponymy---relation of semantic inclusion between a word which is more general and a word which is more specific, . furniture- table.

15. In what way is componential analysis similar to the analysis of phonemes into distinctive features

Key: In the light of componential analysis, the meaning of a word consists of a number distinctive meaning features; the analysis breaks down the meaning of the word into these features; it is these different features that distinguish word meaning. Similarly, a phoneme is considered as a collection of distinctive sound features; a phoneme can be broken down into these distinctive sound features and it is these sound features that distinguish different sounds.

16. How are sentence meaning and utterance meaning related, and how do they differ

Key: Utterance-meaning is based on sentence-meaning; the former is concrete and context-dependent and the latter is abstract and decontextualized.

17. What are the five types of illocutionary speech acts Searle has specified What is the illocutionary point of each type

Key: Representative---stating what the speaker believes to be true

Directive---trying to get the hearer to do something

Commissive—committing the speaker himself to some future action

Expressive---expressing feelings or attitude towards an existing state

Declaration---bringing about immediate changes by saying something

18. What distinction, if any, can you draw between bilingualism and diglossia

Key: Bilingualism refers to a linguistic situation in which two standard languages are used in a speech community; whereas in a diglossic community, two varieties of language are used for different situations, one being more standard and higher, and used for more formal matters, and the other less prestigious, and used for colloquial situations.

语言学概论试题及答案

语言学概论试题及答案 语言学概论作业1 导言、第一章、第二章 一、名词解释 1、历时语言学——就各种语言的历史事实用比较的方法去研究它的“亲属”关系和历史发展的,叫历时语言学。 2、语言——语言是一种社会现象,是人类最重要的交际工具和进行思维的工具。就语言本身的结构来说,语言是由词汇和语法构成的系统。 3、符号——符号是用来代表事物的一种形式,词这样的符号是声音和意义相结合的统一体。任何符号都是由声音和意义两方面构成的。 4、语言的二层性——语言是一种分层装置,其底层是一套音位;上层是音义结合的符号和符号的序列,这一层又分为若干级,第一级是语素,第二级是由语素构成的词,第三级是由词构成的句子。 5、社会现象——语言是一种社会现象和人类社会有紧密的联系。所谓“社会”,就是指生活在一个共同的地域中,说同一种语言,有共同的风俗习惯和文化传统的人类共同体。语言对于社会全体成员来说是统一的、共同的;另一方面,语言在人们的使用中可以有不同的变异、不同的风格。 二、填空 1、结构主义语言学包括布拉格学派、哥本哈根学派、美国描写语言学三个学派。 2、历史比较语言学是在19世纪逐步发展和完善的,它是语言学走上独立发展道路的标志。 3、人的大脑分左右两半球,大脑的左半球控制语言活动,右半球掌管不需要语言的感性直观思维。 4、一个符号,如果没有意义,就失去了存在的必要,如果没有声音,我们就无法感知,符号也就失去了存在的物质基础。 5、用什么样的语音形式代表什么样的意义,完全是由使用这种语言的社会成员约定俗成。 6、语言符号具有任意性和线条性特点。 7、语言的底层是一套音位,上层是符号和符号的序列,可以分为若干级,第一级是语素,第二级是词,第三级是句子。 8、语言系统中的所有符号,既可以同别的符号组合,又可以被别的符号替换,符号之间的这两种关系是组合和聚合。 9、组合是指符号与符号相互之间在功能上的联系,聚合是指符号在性质上的归类。 三、判断正误(正确的打钩,错误的打叉) 1、文字是人类最重要的交际工具。(×) 2、地主阶级和农民阶级之间没有共同语言,这说明语言是有阶级性的。(×) 3、在现代社会,文字比语言更加重要。(×) 4、现代社会,沟通的方式很多,语言的重要性日渐削弱。(×) 5、语言是思维的工具,没有语言,人类就无法思维。(√) 6、语言和思维互相依存,共同发展。(√) 7、任何一种符号,都是由内容和意义两个方面构成的。(×) 8、从本质上看,语言其实是一种符号系统。(√)
