Syntax(句法学)%26Semantics(语义)(第五章,第七章)Syntax1.Syntax(句法)is a branch of linguistics that studies howwords are combined to form sentences and the rules that govern the formation of sentences.2.IC analysis(直接成分分析) is a new approach of sentencestudy that cuts a sentence into two (or more) segments. This kind of pure segmentation is simply dividing a sentence into its constituent elements without even knowing what they really are.3.The term “category”(范畴)in some approaches refers toclasses and functions in its narrow sense, e.g., noun, verb, subject, predicate, noun phrase, verb phrase, etc. More specifically it refers to the defining properties of these general units: the categories of the noun, for example, include number, gender, case and countability; and of the verb, for example, tense, aspect, voice, etc.Semantics1. Semantics(语义学)----the study of language meaning. Meaning is central to the study of communication.2. Word meaningSense and reference are both concerned with the study ofword meaning. They are two related but different aspects of meaning.Sense(意义)---- is concerned with the inherent meaning of the linguistic form. It is the collection of all the features of the linguistic form; it is abstract.Reference(指称)----what a linguistic form refers to in the real, physical world; it deals with the relationship between the linguistic element and the non-linguistic world of experience.3. Major sense relations3.1 SynonymySynonymy(同义词)refers to the sameness or close similarity of meaning. Words that are close in meaning are called synonyms.3.2 Antonymy (反义)a. Gradable antonyms(可分级反义词)----there are often intermediate forms between the two members of a pair, e.g. old-young, hot-cold, tall-short, …b. Complementary antonyms(互补反义词)----the denial of one member of the pair implies the assertion of the other, e.g. alive-dead, male-female, …c.Relational opposites(关系对⽴反义词)----exhibits thereversal of the relationship between the two items, e.g. husband-wife, father-son, doctor-patient, buy-sell, let-rent, employer-employee, give-receive, above-below, …d. Reversive(可逆性反义词)3.3 Hyponymy (上下关系)Hyponymy (上下关系)----the sense relation between a more general, more inclusive word and a more specific word.a. Superordinate(上义词): the word which is more general in meaning.b. Hyponyms(下义词): the word which is more specific in meaning.c. Co-hyponyms(同级下义词): hyponyms of the same superordinate.e.g. Superordinate: furnitureHyponyms: bed, table, desk, dresser, wardrobe, sofa, …3.4 Polysemy (⼀词多义)----the same one word may have more than one meaning.3.5 HomonymyHomonymy---- the phenomenon that words having different meanings have the same form, e.g. different words are identical in sound or spelling, or in both.Homophone(同⾳异义词)---- when two words are identical insound, e.g. rain-reign, night/knight, …Homogragh(同形异义词)---- when two words are identical in spelling, e.g. tear(n.)-tear(v.), lead(n.)-lead(v.), …Complete homonym---- when two words are identical in both sound and spelling4. Componential analysis(成分分析)---- a way to analyze lexical meaning. The approach is based on the belief that the meaning of a word can be dissected into meaning components, called semantic features. For example,Man: [+HUMAN, +ADULT, +ANIMATE, +MALE]Boy: [+HUMAN, -ADULT, +ANIMATE, +MALE]Woman: [+HUMAN, +ADULT, +ANIMATE, -MALE]Girl: [+HUMAN, -ADULT, +ANIMATE, -MALE]Pragmatics语⽤学Pragmatics is the study of how speakers of a language usesentences to effect successful communication.Pragmatics is the study of speaker meaning, contextualmeaning, how more gets communicated than is said.The originSemanticsContext considered Context unconsideredPragmatics Traditional semanticsSentence and utterance话语The relation: Meaning of a sentence is abstract anddecontextualized while meaning of an utterance isconcrete and context-dependent. The meaning of anutterance is based on a sentence meaning and therealization of the abstract meaning of a sentencein a real situation of communication.Example: My bag is heavy. (utterance meaning: a statement,indirec t or polite request, declining someone’s requestfor help)Cooperative Principles and violation of the conversation maxims合作原则和准则的违反The maxim of quantity 数量准则Make your utterance as informative as required. No more and no less.The maxim of quality 质量准则Do not say what you believe to be false and do not saywhat you lack evidence for.The maxim of relation 关系准则Be relevantThe maxim of manner ⽅式准则Avoid obscurity, ambiguity. Be brief and orderly Violation of the maxims and revealing conversation implicature 会话含义The use of the terms principle and maxim does not meanthat the CP and its maxims will be followed by everybody all the time. People do violate them and tell lies. In fact, the significance CP lies in the violations.Examples of the violations of the maxims:1) Violation of the Maxim of QuantityA: What are you readingB: A book.A: Do you know where Dr. Townsend livesB: Somewhere in the southern suburbs of the city. (saidwhen it is known to both A and B that B has Dr. Townsend’s address)2)Violation of the Maxim of QualityA: Would you like to come to our party tonightB: I’m afraid I’m not feeling so well today.(said when it is known to both A and B thatB is feeling perfectly well)3) Violation of the Maxim of RelationA: What time is itB: Well, the paper’s already come.A: The hostess is an awful bore. Don’t you thinkB: The roses in the garden are beautiful, aren’t theyA: What do you think of the lectureB: He’s a good cook.4) Violation of the Maxim of MannerA: Let’s stop and get something to eat.B: Okay, but not M-c-D-o-n-a-l-d-s.A: What did your sister buy at Sears yesterdayB: She bought a red dress, she bought a green dress, and she bought a blue dress.。
英语语言学名词解释
英语语言学是语言学中的一个分支,研究英语的语言结构、语音、语法、语义、语用和历史演变等方面。
以下是一些英语语言学的名词解释:
1. Phonetics(音韵学):研究语音、发音和声音的学科。
它包括语音学和音系学。
2. Phonology(音系学):研究语音在语言中的系统性组织和规律性变化的学科。
3. Morphology(形态学):研究词形变化和词构成的学科。
4. Syntax(句法学):研究句子结构和语法规则的学科。
5. Semantics(语义学):研究语言意义的学科,包括词义和句子意义。
6. Pragmatics(语用学):研究语言在实际使用中的含义和功能的学科。
7. Discourse analysis(语篇分析):研究语言在实际使用中的连贯性和语篇结构的学科。
8. Historical linguistics(历史语言学):研究语言的演变和变化的学科。
9. Sociolinguistics(社会语言学):研究语言和社会、文化、地理和历史等因素之间的关系的学科。
10. Psycholinguistics(心理语言学):研究语言和心理过程之间的关系的学科,包括语言习得、记忆和理解等。
以上是一些常见的英语语言学名词解释,它们涵盖了英语语言学的主要领域和分支。
第二章1.Phonetics(语音学):studies speech sounds, including the production of speech, the descriptionand classification of speech sounds, words and connected speech, etc.注意研究研究语音,包括言语的产生(也就是言语在现实中怎样形成、传递和接受),言语的声音,语音的描写和分类,词语和话语连接的是语音学phonetics。
而不是phonology(音系学),morphology(形态学),syntax (句法学),semantics (语义学)或pragmatics (语用学)。
2.phoneme (音位):(1)定义:simply refers to a “unit of explicit sound contrast”, 最小的语音对立单位。
就是我们平时所见的最小的语音。
(2)minimal pairs:最小对比对The group of similar sounds to that phoneme is called minimal pairs. 而和那个音位类似的音叫做最小对比对。
(3)书写时,放在//里面:“By convention, a phoneme is placed between slant lines(/ /) while a phone i s placed between square brackets ([ ]).”(P39书上39页)“一般来说,音位放在双斜线(//)内,而语音放在方括号内”。
如:/i:/, /i/, /ai/都是音位,而[help],[pli:]等等都是整个单词的语音。
3.Places of articulation (发音位置)(1). 关于发音位置,我们需要掌握以下几种,以及包括的音,会出选择题比较,哪个和另外三个不属于一类。

第一章介绍Applied linguistics运用语言学: findings in linguistic studies can often be applied to the solution of suchpractical problems as the recovery of speech ability. The study of such applications is generally known asapplied linguistics.Descriptive描绘性的: if a linguistic study aims to describe and analyze the language people actually use,it is said to be descriptive.Prescriptive规定性的: if the linguistic study aims to lay down rules for“ correct and standard in using language, i. e. to tell people what they should say and what the should not say, it is said to beprescriptive.Synchronic共时的: the description of a language at some point of time in history is a synchronic study.synchronic study共时研究 : The study of a language at some point in time. e.g. A study of the features ofthe English used in Shakespeare’ s time is a synchronic study.Diachronic历时的: the description of a language as it changes through time is a diachronic study.Diachronic study历时研究 : The study of a language as it changes through time. A diachronic study oflanguage is a historical study, which studies the historical development of language over a period of time.e.g. a study of the changes English has undergone since Shakespeare’ s time is a diachronic study. Langue 语言: refers to the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of a speech community.Langue is abstract.Parole 语言: refers to the realization of langue in actual use. Parole is concrete.Competence : (N. Chomsky) defines as the ideal user’ s knowledge of the rules ofe. his languag Performance : defines as the actual realization of this knowledge in linguistic communication.Design features?Design features refer to the defining properties of human language that distinguish it from any animalsystem of communication. 设计特色是指界定性质的人类差别于其余动物的社交系统。
