LinguisticsChapter 1 Introduction: Language and Linguistics●What is language?⏹Different definitions of language◆Language is a system whose parts can and must be considered in theirsynchronic solidarity. (de Saussure, 1916)◆[Language is] a set (finite or infinite) of sentences, each finite in lengthand constructed out of a finite set of elements. (Chomsky, 1957)◆Language is a purely human and non-instinctive method ofcommunicating ideas, emotions and desires by means of voluntarilyproduced symbols.⏹Each of the definitions above has pointed out some aspects of the essence oflanguage, but all of them have left out something. We must see themulti-faceted nature of language.⏹As is agreed by linguists in broad terms, language can be defined as asystem of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication.●Features of human language⏹Creativity◆Language provides opportunities for sending messages that have neverbeen sent before and for understanding brand new messages.◆The grammar rules and the words are finite, but the sentences areinfinite. Every speaker uses language creatively.⏹Duality◆Language contains two subsystems, one of sounds and the other ofmeanings.◆Certain sounds or sequences of sounds stand for certain meanings.◆Certain meanings are conveyed by certain speech sounds or sequencesof speech sounds.⏹Arbitrariness◆The relationship between the two subsystems of language is arbitrary.◆There is no logical connection between sound and meaning.⏹Displacement◆There is no limit in time or space for language.◆Language can be used to refer to things real or imagined, past, present orfuture.⏹Cultural transmission◆Culture cannot be genetically transmitted. Instead, it must be learned.◆Language is a way of transmitting culture.⏹Interchangeability◆All members of a speech community can send and receive messages.⏹Reflexivity◆Human languages can be used to describe themselves.◆The language used to talk about language is called meta-language.●Functions of language – three meta-functions⏹The ideational function◆To identify things, to think, or to record information.⏹The interpersonal function◆To get along in a community.⏹The textual function◆To form a text.●Types of language⏹Genetic classification⏹Typological classification◆Analytic language –no inflections or formal changes, grammaticalrelationships are shown through word order, such as Chinese andVietnamese◆Synthetic language –grammatical relationships are expressed bychanging the internal structure of the words, typically by changing theinflectional endings, such as English and German◆Agglutinating language – words are built out of a long sequence of units,with each unit expressing a particular grammatical meaning, such asJapanese and Turkish●The myth of language – language origin⏹The Biblical account◆Language was God’s gift to human beings.⏹The bow-wow theory◆Language was an imitation of natural sounds, such as the cries ofanimals, like quack, cuckoo.⏹The pooh-pooh theory◆Language arose from instinctive emotional cries, expressive of pain orjoy.⏹The yo-he-ho theory◆Language arose from the noises made by a group of people engaged injoint labour or effort – lifting a huge hunted game, moving a rock, etc.⏹The evolution theory◆Language originated in the process of labour and answered the call ofsocial need.●What is linguistics?⏹Linguistics is the scientific study of language.◆Observing & questioning◆Formulating hypotheses◆Verifying the hypotheses◆Proposing a theory⏹Branches of linguistics◆Internal branches: intra-disciplinary divisions●Phonetics●Phonology●Morphology●Syntax●Semantics◆External branches: inter-disciplinary divisions●Pragmatics●Psycholinguistics●Sociolinguistics●Applied linguistics●Computational linguistics●Neurolinguistics⏹Features of linguistics◆Descriptive◆Dealing with spoken language◆SynchronicChapter 2 Phonetics●What is phonetics?⏹Phonetics is termed as the study of speech sounds.⏹Sub-branches of phonetics◆Articulatory phonetics – the production of speech sounds◆Acoustic phonetics – the physical properties of speech sounds◆Auditory phonetics – the perceptive mechanism of speech sounds●The speech organs⏹Where does the air stream come from?◆From the lung⏹What is the function of vocal cords?◆Controlling the air stream⏹What are the cavities?◆Oral cavity◆Pharyngeal cavity◆Nasal cavity●Transcription of speech sounds⏹Units of representation◆Segments (the individual sounds)⏹Phonetic symbols◆The widely used symbols for phonetic transcription of speech sounds isthe International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).◆The IPA attempts to represent each sound of human speech with a singlesymbol and the symbols are enclosed in brackets [ ] to distinguishphonetic transcriptions from the spelling system of a language.◆In more detailed transcription (narrow transcription) a sound may betranscribed with a symbol to which a smaller is added in order to markthe finer distinctions.●Description of speech sounds⏹Description of English consonants◆General feature: obstruction◆Criteria of consonant description●Places of articulation●Manners of articulation●V oicing of articulation◆Places of articulation●This refers to each point at which the air stream can be modified toproduce a sound.⏹Bilabial: [p] [b] [m] [w]⏹Labiodental: [f] [v]⏹Interdental: [ ] [❆]⏹Alveolar: [t] [d] [s] [z] [l] [n] [r]⏹Palatal: [☞] [✞] [t☞] [d✞] [j]⏹Velar: [k] [g] [☠]⏹Glottal: [h]◆Manners of articulation●This refers to how the air stream is modified, whether it iscompletely blocked or partially obstructed.⏹Stops: [p] [b] [t] [d] [k] [g]⏹Fricatives: [s] [z] [☞] [✞] [f] [v] [ ] [❆] [h]⏹Affricates: [t☞] [d✞]⏹Liquids: [l] [r]⏹Glides: [w] [j]⏹Nasals: [m] [n] [☠]◆V oicing of articulation●This refers to the vibrating of the vocal cords when sounds areproduced.⏹V oiced sounds⏹V oiceless sounds⏹Description of English vowels◆General feature: without obstruction◆Criteria of vowel description●Part of the tongue that is raised⏹Front⏹Central⏹Back●Extent to which the tongue rises in the direction of the palate⏹High⏹Mid⏹Low●Kind of opening made at the lips●Position of the soft palate◆Single vowels (monophthongs) and diphthongs●Phonetic features and natural classes⏹Classes of sounds that share a feature or features are called natural classes.⏹Major class features can specify segments across the consonant-vowelboundary.⏹Classification of segments by features is the basis on which variations ofsounds can be analyzed.Chapter 3 Phonology●What is phonology?⏹Phonology is the study of sound systems and patterns.⏹Phonology and phonetics are two studies different in perspectives, which areconcerned with the study of speech sounds.⏹Phonology focuses on three fundamental questions.◆What sounds make up the list of sounds that can distinguish meaning ina particular language?◆What sounds vary in what ways in what context?◆What sounds can appear together in a sequence in a particular language?●Phonemes and allophones⏹ A phoneme is a distinctive, abstract sound unit with a distinctive feature.⏹The variants of a phoneme are termed allophones.⏹We use allophones to realize phonemes.●Discovering phonemes⏹Contrastive distribution – phonemes◆If sounds appear in the same environment, they are said to be incontrastive distribution.◆Typical contrastive distribution of sounds is found in minimal pairs andminimal sets.● A minimal pair consists of two words that differ by only one soundin the same position.●Minimal sets are more than two words that are distinguished by onesegment in the same position.◆The overwhelming majority of the consonants and vowels representedby the English phonetic alphabet are in contrastive distribution.◆Some sounds can hardly be found in contrastive distribution in English.However, these sounds are distinctive in terms of phonetic features.Therefore, they are separate phonemes.⏹Complementary distribution – allophones◆Sounds that are not found in the same position are said to be incomplementary distribution.◆If segments are in complementary distribution and share a number offeatures, they are allophones of the same phoneme.⏹Free variation◆If segments appear in the same position but the mutual substitution doesnot result in change of meaning, they are said to be in free variation.●Distinctive and non-distinctive features⏹Features that distinguish meaning are called distinctive features, and featuresdo not, non-distinctive features.⏹Distinctive features in one language may be non-distinctive in another.●Phonological rules⏹Phonemes are abstract sound units stored in the mind, while allophones arethe actual pronunciations in speech.⏹What phoneme is realized by what allophones in what specific context isanother major question in phonology.⏹The regularities that what sounds vary in what ways in what context aregeneralized and stated in phonology as rules.⏹There are many phonological rules in English. Take the following ones asexamples.●[+voiced +consonant] – [-voiced]/[-voiced +consonant]_●[-voiced +bilabial +stop] – unaspirated/[-voiced +alveolar +fricative]_●Syllable structure⏹ A syllable is a phonological unit that is composed of one or more phonemes.⏹Every syllable has a nucleus, which is usually a vowel.⏹The nucleus may be preceded by one or more consonants called the onsetand followed by one or more consonants called the coda.●Sequence of phonemes⏹Native speakers of any language intuitively know what sounds can be puttogether.⏹Some sequences are not possible in English. The impossible sequences arecalled systematic gaps.⏹Sequences that are possible but do not occur yet are called accidental gaps.⏹When new words are coined, they may fill some accidental gaps but theywill never fill systematic gaps.●Suprasegmental features⏹Features that are found over a segment or a sequence of two or moresegments are called suprasegmental features.⏹These features are distinctive features.⏹Stress◆Stress is the perceived prominence of one or more syllabic elements overothers in a word.◆Stress is a relative notion. Only words that are composed of two or moresyllables have stress.◆If a word has three or more syllables, there is a primary stress and asecondary stress.◆In some languages word stress is fixed, i.e. on a certain syllable. InEnglish, word stress is unpredictable.⏹Intonation◆When we speak, we change the pitch of our voice to express ideas.◆Intonation is the variation of pitch to distinguish utterance meaning.◆The same sentence uttered with different intonation may expressdifferent attitude of the speaker.◆In English, there are three basic intonation patterns: fall, rise, fall-rise.⏹Tone◆Tone is the variation of pitch to distinguish words.◆The same sequence of segments can be different words if uttered withdifferent tones.◆Chinese is a typical tone language.Chapter 4 Morphology●What is morphology?⏹The total number of words stored in the brain is called the lexicon.⏹Words are the smallest free units of language that unite sounds withmeaning.⏹Morphology is defined as t he study of the internal structure and theformation of words.●Morphemes and allomorphs⏹The smallest meaningful unit of language is called a morpheme.⏹ A morpheme may be represented by different forms, called allomorphs.⏹“zero” form of a morpheme and suppletives◆Some countable nouns do not change form to express plurality. Similarly,some regular verbs do not change form to indicate past tense. In thesetwo cases, the noun or verb contains two morphemes, among whichther e is one “zero form” of a morpheme.◆Some verbs have irregular changes when they are in past tense. In thiscase, the verbs also have two morphemes. Words which are not relatedin form to indicate grammatical contrast with their roots are calledsuppletives.●Free and bound morphemes⏹Some morphemes constitute words by themselves. These morphemes arecalled free morphemes.⏹Other morphemes are never used independently in speech and writing. Theyare always attached to free morphemes to form new words. Thesemorphemes are called bound morphemes.⏹The distinction between a free morphemes and a bound morpheme iswhether it can be used independently in speech or writing.⏹Free morphemes are the roots of words, while bound morphemes are theaffixes (prefixes and suffixes).●Inflexional and derivational morphemes⏹Inflexional morphemes in modern English indicate case and number ofnouns, tense and aspect of verbs, and degree of adjectives and adverbs.⏹Derivational morphemes are bound morphemes added to existing forms toconstruct new words.◆English affixes are divided into prefixes and suffixes.◆Some languages have infixes, bound morphemes which are inserted intoother morphemes.◆The process of putting affixes to existing forms to create new words iscalled derivation. Words thus formed are called derivatives.●Conclusion: classification of morphemes⏹Morphemes◆Free morphemes◆Bound morphemes●Inflexional●Derivational: affixes⏹Prefixes: -s, -’s, -er, -est, -ing, -ed, -s⏹Suffixes●Formation of new words⏹Derivation◆Derivation forms a word by adding an affix to a free morpheme.◆Since derivation can apply more than once, it is possible to create aderived word with a number of affixes. For example, if we add affixes tothe word friend, we can form befriend, friendly, unfriendly, friendliness,unfriendliness, etc. This process of adding more than one affix to a freemorpheme is termed complex derivation.◆Derivation does not apply freely to any word of a given category.Generally speaking, affixes cannot be added to morphemes of a differentlanguage origin.◆Derivation is also constrained by phonological factors.◆Some English suffixes also change the word stress.⏹Compounding◆Compounding is another common way to form words. It is thecombination of free morphemes.◆The majority of English compounds are the combination of words fromthe three classes – nouns, verbs and adjectives – and fall into the threeclasses.◆In compounds, the rightmost morpheme determines the part of speech ofthe word.◆The meaning of compounds is not always the sum of meaning of thecomponents.⏹Conversion◆Conversion is the process putting an existing word of one class intoanother class.◆Conversion is usually found in words containing one morpheme.⏹Clipping◆Clipping is a process that shortens a polysyllabic word by deleting oneor more syllables.◆Clipped words are initially used in spoken English on informaloccasions.◆Some clipped words have become widely accepted, and are used even informal styles. For example, the words bus (omnibus), vet (veterinarian),gym (gymnasium), fridge (refrigerator)and fax (facsimile)are rarelyused in their complete form.⏹Blending◆Blending is a process that creates new words by putting togethernon-morphemic parts of existing words. For example, smog(smoke +frog), brunch (a meal in the middle of morning, replacing both breakfastand lunch), motel (motor + hotel). There is also an interesting word inthe textbook for junior middle school students –“plike” (a kind ofmachine that is like both a plane and a bike).⏹Back-formation◆Back-formation is the process that creates a new word by dropping a realor supposed suffix. For example, the word televise is back-formed fromtelevision. Originally, the word television is formed by putting the prefixtele- (far) to the root vision (viewing). At the same time, there is a suffix–sion in English indicating nouns. Then people consider the –sion in theword television as that suffix and drop it to form the verb televise.⏹Acronyms and abbreviations◆Acronyms and abbreviations are formed by putting together the initialletters of all words in a phrase or title.◆Acronyms can be read as a word and are usually longer thanabbreviations, which are read letter by letter.◆This type of word formation is common in names of organizations andscientific terminology.⏹Eponyms◆Eponyms are words that originate from proper names of individuals orplaces. For example, the word sandwich is a common noun originatingfrom the fourth Earl of Sandwich, who put his food between two slicesof bread so that he could eat while gambling.⏹Coinage◆Coinage is a process of inventing words not based on existingmorphemes.◆This way of word formation is especially common in cases whereindustry requires a word for a new product. For example, Kodak andCoca-cola.Chapter 5 Syntax●What is syntax?⏹The term syntax is from the ancient Greek word syntaxis, which literallymeans “arrangement” or “setting out together”.⏹Traditionally, it refers to the branch of grammar dealing with the ways inwhich words, with or without appropriate inflexions, are arranged to showconnexions of meaning within the sentence.⏹Syntax is a branch of linguistics that analyzes the structure of sentences.●What is a sentence?⏹Syntax is the analysis of sentence structure. A sentence is a sequence ofwords arranged in a certain order in accordance with grammatical rules.⏹ A sequence can be either well-formed or ill-formed. Native speakers of alanguage know intuitively what strings of words are grammatical and whatare ungrammatical.●Knowledge of sentence structure⏹Structural ambiguity◆Structural ambiguity is one or more string(s) of words has/have morethan one meaning. For example, the sentence Tom said he would comeyesterday can be interpreted in different ways.⏹Word order◆Different arrangements of the same words have different meanings. Forexample, with the words Tom, love and Mary, we may say Tom lovesMary or Mary loves Tom.⏹Grammatical relations◆Native speakers know what element relates to what other elementdirectly or indirectly. For example, in The boats are not big enough andWe don’t have enough boats, the word enough is related to differentwords in the two sentences.⏹Recursion◆The same rule can be used repeatedly to create infinite sentences. Forexample, I know that you are happy. He knows that I know that you arehappy. She knows that he knows that I know that you are happy.⏹Sentence relatedness◆Sentences may be structurally variant but semantically related.⏹Syntactic categories◆ A syntactic category is a class of words or phrases that can substitute forone another without loss of grammaticality. For example, consider thefollowing sentences:●The child found the knife.● A policeman found the knife.●The man who just left here found the knife.●He found the knife.◆All the italicized parts belong to the same syntactic category called nounphrase (NP). The noun phrases in these sentences function as subject.The knife, also a noun phrase, functions as object.●Traditional grammar⏹In traditional grammar, a sentence is considered a sequence of words whichare classified into parts of speech.⏹Sentences are analyzed in terms of grammatical functions of words: subjects,objects, verbs (predicates), predicatives, …⏹Compulsory elements of a sentence: subject, verb, object, complement,adverbial…⏹Nou ns: number, case, gender…⏹Verbs: tense, aspect, voice…⏹Adjectives and adverbs: comparative and superlative degrees⏹Agreement in number/person/gender⏹Parsing: trying to make detailed analysis in structure●Structural grammar⏹Structural grammar arose out of an attempt to deviate from traditionalgrammar. It deals with the inter-relationships of different grammatical units.In the concern of structural grammar, words are not just independentgrammatical units, but are inter-related to one another.⏹Form class◆Form class is a wider concept than part of speech in traditional grammar.◆Linguistic units which can appear in the same slot are said to be in thesame form class. For example, a(n), the, my, that, every,etc. can beplaced before nouns in English sentences. These words fall into oneform class.◆These linguistic units are observed to have the same distribution.⏹Immediate constituent (IC) analysis◆Structural grammar is characterized by a top-down process of analysis.◆ A sentence is seen as a constituent structure. All the components of thesentences are its constituents. A sentence can be cut into sections. Eachsection is its immediate constituent. Then each section can be further cutinto constituents. This on-going cutting is termed immediate constituentanalysis.◆Examples:●Old men and women: old | men and women, old || men | and women●The ||| little || girl | speaks || French.◆In this way, sentence structure is analyzed not only horizontally but alsovertically. In other words, IC analysis can account for the linearity andthe hierarchy of sentence structure.●I will suggest | that this || in itself reflects ||| a particular ideology|||| about gender ||||| that deserves to be re-examined.◆Two advantages of IC analysis:●It can analyze some ambiguities.●It shows linearity and hierarchy of one sentence.●Transformational-generative (TG) grammar⏹Background and the goal of TG grammar◆Chomsky (1957) – grammar is the knowledge of native speakers.●Adequacy of observation●Adequacy of description●Adequacy of explanation◆Writing a TG grammar means working out two sets of rules –phrasestructure rules and transformation rules –which are followed byspeakers of the language.◆TG grammar must account for all and only grammatical sentences.⏹Syntactic categories◆Noun Phrase (NP)◆Verb Phrase (VP)◆Sentence (S)◆Determiner (Det)◆Adjective (Adj)◆Pronoun (Pro)◆Verb (V)◆Auxiliary Verb (Aux)◆Prepositional Phrase (PP)◆Adverb (Adv)⏹Phrase structure (PS) rules◆S → NP VP(Det) (Adj) N◆NP →{Pro◆VP → (Aux) V (NP) (PP)◆PP → P NP⏹Tree diagrams (omit)⏹Recursion and the infinitude of language◆S contains NP and VP and that S may be a constituent of NP and VP. NPand PP can be mutually inclusive. If phrasal categories appear on bothsides of the arrow in phrase structure rules, the rules are recursive.Recursive rules can be applied again and again, and the phrase structurecan grow endlessly.⏹Sub-categorization of the lexicon.◆The process of putting words of the same lexical category into smallerclasses according to their syntactic characteristics is calledsub-categorization.⏹Transformational rules (T-rules)◆Particle movement T-rule●John turned the machine off. John turned off the machine.◆Replacement T-rule●John beat Tom. He beat Tom.●The house needs repairing (to be repaired).◆Insertion T-rule● A fish is swimming in the pond. There is a fish swimming in thepond.◆Deletion T-rule●They came in and (they) sat down.◆Copying T-rule●He is coming, isn’t he?●He has finished his homework, hasn’t he?◆Reflexivization T-rule●I wash me (myself).⏹TG grammar accounts for the mental process of our speaking.●Systematic-functional grammar⏹Background and the goal of systemic-functional grammar◆M. A. K. Halliday●Language is a system of meaning potential and a network ofmeaning as choices.●Meaning determines form, not vice versa. Meaning is realizedthrough forms.●The goal of systemic-functional grammar is to see how function andmeaning are realized through forms.●The three meta-functions of language⏹Ideational function⏹Interpersonal function⏹Textual function⏹The transitivity system of language◆Elements●Process●Participants●Circumstances◆Categorization of reality●Doing – material process⏹Processes involving physical actions: walking, running,throwing, kicking, wrapping, etc.⏹Actor, goal and circumstance●Being – relational process⏹Processes representing a relation being set up between twoseparate entities.⏹Be (identifying), have (attributive)⏹Carrier/possessor and attribute/possessed●Sensing – mental process⏹Processes of sensing, including feeling, thinking, perceiving,imagining, wanting, liking, etc.⏹Senser and phenomenon●Less central types of linguistic process⏹Verbal processes – saying something◆Sayer and receiver⏹Behavioural processes – active conscious processes◆Behaver and range⏹Existential processes – existence of an entity◆Existent⏹Mood and modality◆Mood expresses the speaker’s attitude and serves for interpersonalfunction. It is a syntactic constituent made up of the subject and thefinite.◆Modality is the degree of certainty or frequency expressed by thegrammatical forms of finite. It can be categorized by modalization andmodulation.⏹Theme and rheme◆Theme is the given information, while rheme is the new information.◆Examples:●John | is my friend.●He | should have replied to my letter.Chapter 6 Semantics●What is semantics?⏹Semantics is defined as the study of meaning. However, it is not the onlylinguistic discipline that studies meaning.⏹Semantics answers the question “what does this sentence mean”. In otherwords, it is the analysis of conventional meanings in words and sentences outof context.●Reference and sense⏹Linguistic expressions stand in a relation to the world. There are two aspectsof meaning.⏹Reference is the relation by which a word picks out or identifies an entity inthe world. But the referential theory fails to account for certain kinds oflinguistic expression.◆Some words are meaningful, but they identify no entities in the realworld, such as the words dragon, phoenix, unicorn, and mermaid.◆It is not possible for some words to find referent in the world, such asthe words but, and, of, however, the, etc.◆Speakers of English understand the meaning of a round trianglealthough there is no such graph.⏹Sense is the relation by which words stand in human mind. It is mentalre presentation, the association with something in the speaker’s or hearer’smind. The study of meaning from the perspective of sense is called therepresentational approach.●Classification of lexical meanings⏹Referential meaning (denotative meaning) – central meaning of words, stable,universal⏹Associative meaning –meaning that hinges on referential meaning, lessstable, more culture-specific◆Connotative meaning – the communicative value an expression has byvirtue of what it refers to, embraces the properties of the referent,。

东北师范大学外国语言学及应用语言学考研经验考研其实是一件非常枯燥和艰辛的过程，这段时间也非常感谢high研APP 的伙伴们的鼓励和支持，没有你们我可能都坚持不下来。
只有一个建议：选择自己喜欢且擅长的，剩下要做的就是朝着这个方向努力啦。
关于初试一、参考书及资料政治：肖秀荣精讲精练，肖秀荣1000题，肖秀荣历年真题，李凡政治新时器，肖秀荣四套卷，八套卷，时政小册子，风中劲草德语：德语四级练习册，新编大学德语教材前三册，东师真题专业课：杨忠语言学，杨忠对应练习册，胡壮麟语言学（没看完），英语国家概况（下册没看），星火语言学，东师真题基础英语：精读56册，专八阅读，东师真题二、各科准备情况1.政治由于我高中是理科生，政治几乎是零基础，所以还是花费了很多时间在政治上面的。
马克思不懂的那部分看看加深一下理解，最开始看的是政治新时器和配套的1000题，1000题能做几遍是几遍，虽然到最后也有很多记不住，但我觉得做题能加深我的记忆。
不赞同买好多本习题册，一本书看得精比看好多本书有用多了。
到了后期可以看看风中劲草，有人是直接背，我剩的时间很少，就只是把做题中不会的知识点给看了。
大题就只是背了肖四，还是就剩几天才背的（心痛的回忆呀），全押中了也是幸运哈哈哈！第一轮的复习，是最为基础的复习。
刚开始，不需要给自己的复习太大压力，主要的任务是熟悉考点。
政治学科和其他学科不同，不必要静下来来看很长时间书才开始做题。
政治科目的复习，可以把看书和做题交叉在一起，配套进行。
边看书边做题，通过做题来强化自己看书的效果。
能够做到熟知考点，遇到考点不觉得陌生，就可以了。
这一轮的复习，建议以单项选择题为主，因为多项选择题需要有一定知识积累才能开始做题。
第二轮的复习，可谓是最艰难的。
经过一轮对知识点的熟悉，处在夹生半熟的状态。
多项选择题刚好可以检测知识点的复习情况。
这一轮的复习，是最为关键的。
在政治选择题中，最为关键的就是多项选择题，分值高、难度大，要想拿到不错的分数，务必好好练习。

东北师范大学英语语言学考研复习经验总结2013年东北师范大学英语语言学考研复习经验总结看到别人分享的经验，忍不住也来分享一下。
一、语言学就是杨忠老师的语言学与胡壮麟的书。
我大学时期学的是戴伟栋的新编简明英语语言学教程。
我认为杨忠老师的书比胡的书好多的，书又薄还比较容易理解。
我当时看杨书的时候是参照它的汉语版本（上面有好多错误，但是也要看，起码能巩固课本上的知识。
PS:13年复试笔试考到了上面的几个小题目。
所以也要认真对待啊。
）及一份笔记看的。
看第一遍的时候，就是查了查不会的单词，没什么印象。
慢慢的多看几遍就好了。
第七章十分重要，要结合胡的书看，特别是例子。
忘了是看第几遍的时候，我自己整理的一份笔记，其实无非就是课本及笔记上的知识点，知识整理一下感觉更有条理。
但是当我整理完了之后发现，完全是在抄课本还有自己补充的内容，然后就没有然后了……你懂得，那个本子也被束之高阁了。
当然，我并不反对用本子做笔记，还是那句话吧，适合自己的才是最好的。
看好课本以后就是研究真题了，真题灰常灰常重要。
胡的书看的时候感觉头痛啊，还痛苦，每看一页我就会不由的叹气，以至于，同位会说，又叹气了……到了后来，一遍比一遍熟悉，感觉轻松了不少，是对照着圣才的那本胡壮麟语言学教程的，这本满蛮有条理。
二、政治先说辅导班吧，很多人会问我到底要不要报辅导班？？去年我也问过他们这个问题，纠结到底要不要。
最后，为了买了个安慰还是没按捺住，报了某辅导机构的政治冲刺班。
（上课在一个大教室里，还不是在校内……真心受不了）。
不过，真心讲一句，贾诩的讲课还是很搞笑的，也许最大的收获就是“买笑”了。
我是在暑假结束后才开始复习政治的，就是大纲解析下来之后才开始看的（虽然我的大纲解析一遍都没看完，不要学我哈！！），因为实在是太无聊，太枯燥，后来就跟着辅导班的进程走了。
什么讲题班，押题班，冲刺班，都上了，不过，让他给忽悠的还真的是信心百倍，就感觉，大题肯定考这个了。
《语言学概论》学习指导杨忠主编《语言学概论》学习指导主编杨忠副主编：林正军魏昆编者（按姓氏笔画排序）王泽霞王晶芝杨忠林正军《语言学概论学习指导》是为网络课程学历教育考生编写的学习指导书，既可用于网络语言学课程的大纲及教材辅导，亦可用作语言学课程教学的辅导材料。
语言学作为与外语教学密切相关的学科之一，在外语教学中的地位和作用越来越显著。
在大学英语本科专业，语言学已被当作一门重要的专业课开设。
同时，语言学也是外语教师职业发展和培训的必修课。
为了配合《语言学概论》（杨忠主编，高等教育出版社，2002）这本教材的教与学，我们组织编写了这本学习指导用书。
本书与教材相对应，共分为十章，每章包括导读、重点与难点、习题及语言学名家介绍四部分。
本书的编写体例由杨忠、林正军和魏昆共同商定。
具体分工如下：杨忠负责序言部分的撰写、以及全书的审校工作；王泽霞负责第一至三章及综合测试题一至四的编写；王晶芝负责第四至六章及综合测试题五至八的编写；林正军负责第七至十章及综合测试题九至十的编写、以及全书的统稿工作；魏昆负责全书的校对和编排工作。
本书语言学名家简介部分的编写参考了刘润青的《西方语言学流派》（外语教学与研究出版社，2004）、当代国外语言学与应用语言学文库的相关导读部分、以及中国学术期刊全文数据库的部分文章，在此我们向以上著作及文章的作者致谢！本书在编写过程中得到东北师范大学出版社魏昆老师以及出版社的大力支持，在此表示衷心感谢！编者2006年2月19日序第一章语言和语言学导读本章重点、难点本章习题语言学名家介绍—费迪南·德·索绪尔第二章语音学导读本章重点、难点本章习题语言学名家介绍—维伦·马泰休斯第三章音位学导读本章重点、难点本章习题语言学名家介绍—路易斯·叶姆斯列夫第四章形态学：词的构成研究导读本章重点、难点本章习题语言学名家介绍—布龙菲尔德第五章句法：句子结构分析导读本章习题语言学名家介绍—乔姆斯基第六章语义学导读本章重点、难点本章习题语言学名家介绍—杰弗瑞·利奇第七章语用学导读本章重点、难点本章习题语言学名家介绍—约翰·塞尔第八章社会语言学导读本章重点、难点本章习题语言学名家介绍—威廉·拉波夫第九章第二语言习得导读本章重点、难点本章习题语言学名家介绍—约翰·鲁珀特·弗斯第十章语言学与外语教学导读本章习题语言学名家介绍—韩礼德绪论漫谈外语教师学习语言学杨忠就“从语言学中学什么”和“怎样学习语言学”两个相关的话题与年轻的外语同行们交流一下学习语言学的体会，代为序。
当了八年英语教师之后有了个机会公派出国学习。
当时最想学的就是语言学。
可是，到了目的地的第二天，接待我们的教育部官员却说语言学对提高英语教学水平没什么帮助。
凭直觉我感到教语言不懂语言学不行。
所以还是选了应用语言学方向，选的第一门基础课是语言学概论。
我发现选这门课的人有两百多人，来自人文社会科学若干系科。
几位教授、讲师共同承担这门课程，各讲一部分（team teaching），博士生上辅导课。
作业挺多，挺难，考试拉单桌。
功夫没白下，一年下来总成绩得了A。
回国后，系里让我接一位外教的课，继续教过去教过的综合英语。
教学方法跟过去不一样了。
后来，先后为本科生和研究生开了语言学课程，出版了一本语言学教材，发表了一些语言研究和语言教学研究的论文。
回顾三十年英语教学生涯，学语言学之前和之后相比，教学和研究能力相去甚远。
一个专业化的外语教师需要具有听、说、读、写、译、教六种技能，在教学过程中同时充当多重角色。
第一，他/她是目的语的使用者，用所教的语言来传授知识，组织活动，与学生进行情感和信息交流。
第二，是目的语的研究者，能独立探索那个语言的规律。
第三，是目的语的传授者，能全面理解教育目的、课程目标，了解学生的群体及个体特点和需要，科学合理地选择教学内容和方法，善于调动学生积极性，指导学习方法。
教师教育界认为，专业化的教师是善于反思的教师。
反思的一个重要条件是通过经常性阅读专业文献，与同领域的专家和同行及时沟通本专业的发展。
所以，一个外语教师的专业发展离不开三个R，即，reading, research, reflection。
为人师表的社会角色要求教师必须终生学习。
“道之所存，师之所存”就意味着要当好先生就要永远当好学生。
1．从语言学中学什么？学语言观。
著名应用语言学家科德（Corder）在1973年出版的《应用语言学导论》中指出：“我们处理工作的方法会受到我们对语言的看法的影响，也即受到关于语言的某种或几种看来和我们面临的特定问题有关的非正式理论的影响，甚至取决于这些理论。
”这段话中明确地指出了教语言的方法和对语言的看法之间的关系。
对语言的看法即是语言观，对语言本质的理解。
理查德（Richards）和罗杰斯（Rogers）把外语教学法分解为理论基础、内容设计、教学步骤三个组成部分。
语言学对语言本质研究的进展直接影响教学方法的更新。
语言学家探讨的问题也是语言教师需要思考的问题。
语言的本质是什么？语言发挥什么作用？怎样发挥作用？语言符号系统由什么构成？人怎样习得或学习语言？对于诸如此类的问题一个专业化的外语教师必须思考、回答。
要探讨怎样教语言，就不能不思考语言是什么。
当教师必有教育观，教语言定有语言观。
不学语言学也可有语言观，但那是潜意识的语言观。
一个外语教师学习了语言学，他/她的语言观则会理性化，对语言本质的认识会更符合语言实际。
对语言本质认识的深化有助于对教学的思考。
学研究方法。
对于一个外语教师来说，仅学习传统语法不能满足工作需要。
传统语法是教学语法，它只提供语法学家描写语言的结果，从中学不到得出结论的方法。
现代语言学的研究目标是既描写又解释语言现象。
语言学作为一门科学，其基本方法大致与其它科学相同。
观察，提问，提出假说，验证假说，得出结论。
读语言学论著可以从中学习研究思路和方法，看作者如何在回顾先前研究成果基础上提出问题，提出什么样的假说，怎样设计求证方法，怎样概括结果，得出结论。
这个学习过程是非常有益的思维训练过程，对于外语教师学习研究语言和语言学习很有价值。
学语言规律。
研究是“探求事物的真相、性质、规律（《现代汉语词典》）。
阅读语言学著述可以从语言学家那里学到他们通过研究发现的语言普遍规律或某一自然语言的规律，包括语音特征及分类、音位规则、词语构成、句法、语义类型与成分、语用原则、会话结构、语篇模式和连贯、语言变体、语言习得，等等。
这些方面的知识有助于外语教师的专业发展。
第一，掌握这些方面的语言规律能全面深入地把握教学内容，能高屋建瓴地使用教材，创造性设计练习和试卷。
第二，这些方面的知识能帮助教师敏锐地诊断学生的语误并找出其原因，科学区分和对待不同类型的语误。
第三，这些方面的知识能帮助教师反思自己的外语学习，发现问题，提高准确、得体地使用所学语言的能力。
2．怎样学习语言学？体会价值，激发动力。
语言学是比较抽象的学科，要学好非下一番功夫不可。
人们说兴趣是最好的老师，是因为有了兴趣就有持久的学习动力。
然而在没进入一个学科之前无法谈到是否会产生兴趣。
就个人而言（且不说学历教育所规定的课程），要不要学习某个学科，取决于个人对那个学科价值的判断，看它对自己的素质提高和专业发展是否有作用。
对于语言教师来说，语言学的价值毋须质疑。
应用语言学家将语言学对语言教学的贡献概括为应用和启示两方面。
语言描述的成果为语言教学直接提供内容，如音标、教学语法等。
语言学理论研究成果对语言教师思考教什么和怎样教两个根本问题颇有启发。
应用语言学家们认为外语教学是一个系统工程，包括决策、策划、操作、评价四个紧密联系的层面。
决策者们依据经济建设和社会发展需要确定教什么语言，在什么教育阶段开始，在课程设置中占什么位置。
专家们研究制定教学大纲、课程标准，编写教材，培养培训师资，外语教师是外语教育的操作者。
评价的目的是检验外语教育教学的效果。
这四个层面的工作都离不开语言学研究成果。
一个语言教师如果没有语言理论知识就好比一个不懂人体科学的体育教练。
无论他/她自己运动水平多高，不研究运动机理就不可能培养出高水平运动员。
同样道理，语言教师只有懂得语言符号系统是怎样构成的，是如何发挥作用的，语言学习过程有那些因素，怎样发挥这些因素的作用，才能更有效地从事语言教学，提高人才培养质量。
整体入手，见木见林。
语言是非常复杂的现象，语言学分支很多，派别林立。
语言学的分支是依其研究对象划分的，即依语言的各种要素划分的。
语言的基本要素是语音、结构、意义。
研究语音的分支是语音学、音位学，研究结构的是形态学和句法学，研究意义的是语义学和语用学。
语言与社会、心理、文化、教育等密切相关，因此出现一些语言研究的交叉学科，如社会语言学、心理语言学、应用语言学等。
即使研究对象是同样的语言层面，由于采用的方法不同，视角不同，还会有不同的学派。
例如，转换生成语法和系统功能语法都研究句子结构，但是两种语法的视角不同，研究的结果就不同，所发现的组句规律截然不同。
它们彼此互补，并不矛盾。
从整体上把握语言学众多的分支和派别可以了解语言学的全貌，做到纲举目张。
了解立论过程，深入理解理论。
理论是对自然和社会现象的系统性解释。
任何理论都产生于研究过程。
研究过程始于观察和提问，然后提出假说（即对所观察到的现象的初步解释或对所提出问题的初步解答），最后验证假说。
如果假说得到充分验证，则成为理论。
如果验证失败，则须重新提出假说，再验证新的假说。
语言学理论也是在这样的过程中产生的。
理解一个语言学理论，就须从语言学家所提出的问题开始，弄清假说，看它是如何被验证的。
这样才能深入理解理论。
语言学的发展本身也是一个过程。
科学哲学家波普尔（Popper）认为, 科学发展史就是一个原有理论被证伪、新理论提出的过程。
人类对世界的认识逐步深化。
很难想象那一个理论完全脱离已有知识而凭空提出。
新理论的立论前提是发现了原有理论不能解释或不能完全解释的现象和问题。
这就是学术论文都有文献综述的道理。
了解一个理论的来龙去脉才能把握它的精髓，判别它的价值。
因此，阅读一部语言学论著或论文时，要注意作者对原有理论的评述，看他/她指出的问题，然后再看他/她的观点是什么，是怎样验证的。
用例证解读术语。
每一门科学都有术语。
语言学术语也很多。
术语是一门科学的专门用语。
语言学术语与其它科学术语不同。
其他科学的术语属于对象语言，例如分数，植物，流体，燃烧，等都是术语，也是汉语的词。
而语言学术语属于元语言，即关于语言的语言。
对象语言是我们谈论语言之外的事物和对象的语言，元语言是我们用来谈论对象语言的语言。
比较两个英语句子中的man:(1)Man is a bipedal hairless primate.(2)Man is composed of three phonemes.句（1）是给man 下的定义，man 用来指一种客观存在。
