Linguistics: It is generally defined as the scientific study of language.General linguistics: The study of language as a whole is called general linguistics.Applied linguistics:In a narrow sense, applied linguistics refers to the application of linguistic principles and theories to language teaching and learning, especially the teaching of foreign and second languages. In a broad sense, it refers to the application of linguistic findings to the solution of practical problems such as the recovery of speech ability.Synchronic study: The study of a language at some point in time.e.g. A study of the features of the English used in Shakespear e’s time is a synchronic study.Diachronic study: The study of a language as it changes through time. A diachronic study of language 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.Language competence: T he ideal user’s knowl edge of the rules of his language. A transformational-generative grammar(转化生成语法)is a model of language competence.Language performance: performance is the actual realization of the ideal language user’s knowledge of the rules in linguistic communication.Langue: Langue refers to the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of a speech community; Langue is the set of conventions and rules which language users all have to follow; Langue is relatively stable, it does not change frequently. Parole:Parole refers to the realization of langue in actual use; parole is the concrete use of the conventions and the application of the rules; parole varies from person to person, and from situation to situation.Language: Language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication.Arbitrariness: It is one of the design features of language. It means that there is no logical connection between meanings and sounds. A good example is the fact that different sounds are used to refer to the same object in different languages.Productivity: Language is productive or creative in that it makes possible the construction and interpretation of new signals by its users.Duality: Language is a system, which consists of two sets of structure, or two levels, one of sounds at the lower or basic level, and the other of meanings at the higher level.Displacement: language can be used to refer to things which are present or not present, real or imagined matters in the past, present, or future, or in far-away places. In other words, language can be used to refer to contexts removed from the immediate situations of the speaker.Cultural transmission: While we are born with the ability to acquire language, the details of any language are not genetically transmitted, but instead have to be taught and learned.Design features: It refers to the defining properties of human language that distinguish it from any animal system of communicationphonetics: Phonetics is defined as the study of the phonic medium of language; it is concerned with all the sounds that occur in the world’ s languagesauditory phonetics: It studies the speech sounds from the hearer’s point of view. It studies how the sounds are perceived by the hearer.acoustic phonetics: It studies the speech sounds by looking at the sound waves. It studies the physical means by which speech sounds are transmitted through the air from one person to another. international phonetic alphabet [IPA]: It is a standardized and internationally accepted system of phonetic transcription.Broad transcription:the transcription with letter-symbols only, i.e. one letter-symbol for one sound. This is the transcription normally used in dictionaries and teaching textbooks.Narrow transcription: is the transcription with letter-symbols together with the diacritics. This is the transcription used by the phoneticians in their study of speech sounds.diacritics: is a set of symbols which can be added to the letter-symbols to make finer distinctions than the letters alone make possible.Voiceless(清音): when the vocal cords are drawn wide apart, letting air go through without causing vibration, the sounds produced in such a condition are called voiceless sounds.Voicing (浊音): Sounds produced while the vocal cords are vibrating are called voiced sounds.Vowel: the sounds in production of which no articulators come very close together and the air stream passes through the vocal tract without obstruction are called vowels.Consonants: the sounds in the production of which there is an obstruction of the air stream at some point of the vocal tract are called consonants.phonology: Phonology studies the system of sounds of a particular language; it aims to discover how speech sounds in a language form patterns and how these sounds are used to convey meaning in linguistic communication.phone: Phones can be simply defined as the speech sounds we use when speaking a language. A phone is a phonetic unit or segment. It does not necessarily distinguish meaning.phoneme:a collection of abstract phonetic features, it is a basic unit in phonology. It is represented or realized as a certain phone by a certain phonetic context.allophone: The different phones which can represent a phoneme in different phonetic environments are called the allophones of that phoneme. For example [l] and [l]phonemic contrast:Phonemic contrast refers to the relation between two phonemes. If two phonemes can occur in the same environment and distinguish meaning, they are in phonemic contrast.Complementary distribution:refers to the relation between two similar phones which are allophones of the same phoneme, and they occur in different environments.minimal pair:When two different forms are identical in every way except for one sound segment which occurs in the same place in the strings, the two words are said to form a minimal pair. For example: bin and pin.suprasegmental features: the phonemic features that occur above the level of the segments are called suprasegmental features. The main suprasegmental features include stress, tone and intonation.tone: Tones are pitch variations, which are caused by the differing rates of vibration of the vocal cords. Pitch variation can distinguish meaning just like phonemes. The meaning-distinctive function of the tone is especially important in tone languages, for example, in Chinese.intonation: When pitch, stress and sound length are tied to the sentence rather than the word in isolation, they are collectively known as intonation. For example, English has four basic types of intonation: the falling tone, the rising tone, the fall-rise tone and the rise-fall tone.Morphology: Morphology is a branch of grammar which studies the internal structure of words and the rules by which words are formed. It is divided into two sub-branches: inflectional morphology and lexical or derivational morphology.Inflectional morphology: The inflectional morphology studies the inflectionsDerivational morphology: Derivational morphology is the study of word-formation.Morpheme: It is the smallest meaningful unit of language. For example: the word “boyish” consists of two morphemes: “boy” and “ish”.Free morpheme: Free morphemes are the morphemes which are independent units of meaning and can be used freely all by themselves or in combination with other morphemes. For example: “help”, “table”, “room” are all free morphemes.Bound morpheme: Bound morphemes are the morphemes which cannot be used independently but have to be combined with other morphemes, either free or bound, to form a word. For example: “-er”, “dis-“, “-less” are all bound morphemes.Root: A root is often seen as part of a word; it can never stand by itself although it bears clear, definite meaning; it must be combined with another root or an affix to form a word. For example: the root “geo-“combines with another root “-ology”, we get the word “geology”.Affix: morphemes manifesting various grammatical relations or grammatical categories such as number, tense, degree and case. Affixes are of two types: inflectional and derivational. Inflectional affixes manifest various grammatical relations or grammatical categories, such as “-ing”, “-est”, while derivational affixes are added to an existing form to create a word, such as “-ly”, “dis-“, “un-“.Inflection(屈折):the manifestation of various grammatical relationships through the addition of inflectional affixes, such as number, tense, degree and case.Prefix: Prefixes occur at the beginning of a word. Prefixes modify the meaning of the stem, but they usually do not change the part of speech of the original word.Suffix: Suffixes are added to the end of the stems; they modify the meaning of the original word and in many cases change its part of speech.Stem: A stem is the existing form to which a derivational affix can be added. A stem can be a bound root, a free morpheme, or a derived form himself.Derivation: Derivation is a process of word formation by which derivative affixes are added to an existing form to create a word.Compounding: Compounding can be viewed as the combination of two or sometimes more than two words to create new words.1). syntax: Syntax is a subfield of linguistics which studies thesentence structure of language. It consists of a set of abstractrules that allow words to be combined with other words to form grammatical sentences.2). linguistic competence: Universally found in the grammars ofall human languages, syntactic rules comprise the system ofinternalized linguistic knowledge of a language speakerknown as linguistic competence.3). sentence: A sentence is a structurally independent unit thatusually comprises a number of words to form a completestatement, question or command. Normally, a sentenceconsists of at least a subject and a predicate which containsa finite verb or a verb phrase.4). finite clause(定式子句): a clause that takes a subject and afinite verb, and at the same time stands structurally alone. (Asimple sentence satisfies the structural requirements of afinite clause.)5). simple sentence: a simple sentence consists of a singleclause which contains a subject and a predicate and standsalone as its own sentence.6). coordinate sentence(并列句): A coordinate sentencecontains two clauses joined by a linking word called coordinating conjunction, such as “and”, “but”,“or”.7). complex sentence(复合句): a complex sentence containstwo or more clauses, one of which is incorporated (合成一体的)into the other. That is, the two clauses hold unequalstatus, one subordinating the other. The incorporated, or subordinate, clause is normally called an embedded clause,and the clause into which it is embedded is called a matrixclause.8). hierarchical structure(层次结构): the sentence structure thatgroups words into structural constituents and shows thesyntactic category of each structural constituent, such as NPand VP.9). syntactic category: Apart from sentences and clauses, asyntactic category usually refers to a word (called a lexical category) or a phrase (called a phrasal category) that performs a particular grammatical function, such as thesubject or object in a sentence. Constituents that can be substituted for one another without loss of grammaticalitybelong to the same syntactic category.10). grammatical relations: The structural and logical functionalrelations of constituents are called grammatical relations. Thegrammatical relations of a sentence concern the way eachnoun phrase in the sentence relates to the verb. In manycases, grammatical relations in fact refer to who does what towhom.11). phrase structure rules: a rewrite rule that allows for thepossible combinations of words to form phrases andsentences.12). X-bar theory is a general and highly abstract schema thatcollapses all phrasal structure rules into a single format: X″→ (Spec) X (Compl). (In this format, Spec stands for specifierwhile Compl stands for complement. This theory is capable ofreducing the redundancies of individual phrasal structurerules and may well capture certain basic properties shared byall phrasal categories, i.e. NP, VP, AP, PP, across thelanguages of the world. )13). transformational rules: Transformational rules are the rulesthat transform one sentence type into another type.14). D-structure: D- structure is the level of syntacticrepresentation that exists before movement takes place.Phrase structure rules, with the insertion of the lexicon,generate sentences at the level of D-structure.(Phrase structure rules + the lexicon→D-structure →Movement rules →S-structure)15). S-structure: a level of syntactic representation after theoperation of necessary syntactic movement16). Move a: a general movement rule accounting for thesyntactic behavior of any constituent movement.17). Universal Grammar: a system of linguistic knowledge whichconsists of some general principles and parameters about natural languages.1). Semantics: Semantics can be simply defined as the study ofmeaning in language.2). Sense: Sense is concerned with the inherent meaning of thelinguistic form. It is the collection of all the features of the linguistic form; it is abstract and de-contextualized.3). Reference: Reference means what a linguistic form refers to inthe real, physical world; it deals with the relationship between the linguistic element and the non-linguistic world of experience.4). Synonymy: Synonymy refers to the sameness or closesimilarity of meaning. Words that are close in meaning are called synonyms.5). Polysemy: Polysemy refers to the fact that the same one wordmay have more than one meaning.6). Homonymy(同音异义,同形异义): Homonymy refers to thephenomenon that words having different meanings have the same form, i.e. , different words are identical in sound or spelling, or in both.7). Homophones(同音异义): When two words are identical insound, they are called homophones. e.g. rain/reign.8). Homographs同形异义: When two words are identical inspelling, they are homographs. e.g. tear v. / tear n.9). Complete homonyms: When two words are identical in bothsound and spelling, they are called complete homonyms. e.g.fast v. / fast adj.; scale v. /scale. n.10). Hyponymy(下义关系): Hyponymy refers to the sense relationbetween a more general, more inclusive word and a more specific word. The word which is more general is called a superordinate(上坐标词), and the more specific words are called its hyponyms. (Hyponyms of the same superordinate are co-hyponyms to each other.) e.g. superordinate: animal, hyponyms: dog, cat, lion, tiger.11). Antonymy: Antonymy refers to the relation of oppositeness ofmeaning (on different dimensions).12). Componential analysis(成分分析法): Componential analysisis a way proposed by structural semanticists to analyze word meaning. This approach is based on the belief that the meaning of a word can be divided into meaning components, which are called semantic features. For example: the word “man”is analyzed as comprising the features of +HUMAN, +ADULT, +ANIMATE, +MALE.13). Predication analysis(述谓结构分析): It is an approachproposed by British linguist G. Leech for sentential meaning analysis. In semantic analysis of a sentence, predication is the basic unit which is the abstraction of the meaning of a sentence. This applies to all forms of sentence, including statements, imperative and interrogative forms. A predication consists of argument(s) and predicate. An argument is a logical participant in a prediction, largely identical with the nominal element(s) in a sentence. A predicate is something said about an argument or it states the logical relation linking the arguments in a sentence.14). The grammatical meaning: The grammatical meaning of asentence refers to its grammaticality, i.e., its grammatical well-formedness. The grammaticality of a sentence is governed by the grammatical rules of the language.15). Two-place predication: A two-place predication is one whichcontains two arguments.1). Pragmatics: the study of how speakers of a language usesentences to effect successful communication.2). Context: The notion of context is essential to the pragmaticstudy of language. It consists of (It is generally considered as constituted by) the knowledge that is shared by the speaker and the hearer. The shared knowledge is of two types: the knowledge of the language they use, and the knowledge about the world, including the general knowledge about the world and the specific knowledge about the situation in which linguistic communication is taking place.3). Utterance meaning: the meaning of an utterance is concrete,and context-dependent. Utterance is based on sentence meaning; it is realization of the abstract meaning of a sentence in a real situation of communication, or simply in a context. 4). Sentence meaning: The meaning of a sentence is oftenconsidered as the abstract, intrinsic property of the sentence itself in terms of a predication.5). Constative: Constatives were statements that either state ordescribe, and were verifiable;6). Performative: performatives, on the other hand, weresentences that did not state a fact or describe a state, and were not verifiable. Their function is to perform a particular speech act.7). Locutionary act: A locutionary act is the act of uttering words,phrases, clauses. It is the act of conveying literal meaning by means of syntax, lexicon and phonology.8). Illocutionary act: An illocutionary act is the act of expressingthe speaker’s intention; it is the act performed in saying something.9). Perlocutionary act: A perlocutionary act is the act performed byor resulting from saying something; it is the consequence of, or the change brought about by the utterance; it is the act performed by saying something.10). Cooperative Principle: It is a principle advanced by Paul Grice.His idea is that in making conversations, the participants must first of all be willing to cooperate, otherwise it would not be possible for them to carry on the talk. The content is: Make your conversational contribution such as required at the stage at which it occurs by the accepted purpose or direction of the talk exchange in which you are engaged.11). Conversational implicature: Most of the violations of thecooperative principles give rise to what Paul Grice calls “conversational implicatures.”When we violate any of these maxims, our language becomes indirect and implies an extra meaning.1) historical linguistics: a subfield of linguistics that studieslanguage change (or historical development of language).2) diachronic linguistics: a term used instead of historicallinguistics to refer to the study of language change at various points in time and at various historical stages.3) Old English: a major period in the history of Englishdevelopment that began in 449 and ended in 1100.4) Middle English: a major period in the history of Englishdevelopment that began with the arrival of the Norman French invaders in England in 1100 and ended in 1500.5) Modern English: a period in the history of English developmentthat began roughly from 1500 to the present.6) the Great Vowel Shift: a series of systematic sound change inthe history of English that involved seven long vowels and consequently led to one of the major discrepancies(差异)between English pronunciation and its spelling system.7) apocope: the deletion of a word-final vowel segment.8) epenthesis: the insertion of the consonant or vowel sound tothe middle of a word.9) Metathesis: Sound change as a result of sound movement isknown as metathesis. It involves a reversal in position of two neighbouring sound segments.10) Compounding: It is a process of combining two or more thantwo words into one lexical unit. For example: sailboat, big-mouth, three-year-old.11) Derivation: It is a process by which new words are formed bythe addition of affixes to the roots, stems or words. For example: uglification(丑化),finalize.12) Acronym: An acronym is a word created by combining theinitials of a number of words. For example: UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization国际教科文组织),CD-ROM (compact disk of read-only-memory)13) blending: a process of forming a new word by combining partsof two words. For example: smog (smoke + fog), brunch (breakfast + lunch)14) abbreviation: an abbreviation is a shortened form of a word orphrase which represents the complete form. For example: TV (television), Dr (doctor), hr (hour), Jan (January)15) clipping: clipping is a kind of abbreviation of otherwise longerwords or phrases. For example: gym (gymnasium), zoo (zoological garden), fridge (refrigerator), e-mail (electronic mail), hi-fi (high fidelity).16) Back-formation: It is a process by which new words are formedby taking away the supposed suffix of an existing word. For example: typewrite (typewriter), edit (editor)17) semantic broadening: the process in which the meaning of aword becomes more general or inclusive than its historically earlier meaning.18) Semantic narrowing: Semantic narrowing is a process in whichthe meaning of a word becomes less general or inclusive than its historically earlier meaning.19) Semantic shift: Semantic shift is a process of semantic changein which a word loses its former meaning and acquires a new, sometimes related, meaning.20) protolanguage: the original (or ancestral) form of a languagefamily which has ceased to exist.21) language family: a group of historically (or genetically) relatedlanguages that have developed from a common ancestral language.22) Great Vowel Shift: It is a series of systematic sound change atthe end of the Middle English period approximately between 1400 and 1600 in the history of English that involved seven long vowels and consequently led to one of the major discrepancies between English pronunciation and its spelling system.23) Sound assimilation: Sound assimilation refers to thephysiological effect of one sound on another. In an assimilative process, successive sounds are made identical, or more similar, to one another in terms of place or manner of articulation, or of haplology.24) Haplology: It refers to the phenomenon of the loss of one oftwo phonetically similar syllables in sequence.25) cognate: a word in one language which is similar in form andmeaning to a word in another language because both languages have descended from a common source.26) internal borrowing: the application of a rule from one part of thegrammar to another part of the grammar by analogy(类推,类似)to its earlier operation.27) Grimm’s Law:Because these sound changes were sostrikingly regular and law-like, they became known as Grimm’s Law. According to this law, the Germanic languages were subject to a rule that changed all voiceless stops into fricatives after they split off from other Indo-European languages.1) sociolinguistics: the subdiscipline of linguistics that studieslanguage variation and language use in social context.2) speech community: a group of people who form acommunity and share at least one speech variety as well assimilar linguistic norms.3) speech variety: Speech variety, also known as languagevariety, refers to any distinguishable form of speech used bya speaker or group of speakers. The distinctivecharacteristics of a speech variety may be lexical,phonological, morphological, syntactic, or a combinationof linguistic features.4) language planning: language standardization is known aslanguage planning. This means that certain authorities, suchas the government or government agency of a country,choose a particular speech variety and spread the use of it,including its pronunciation and spelling systems, acrossregional boundaries.5) sociolect: a variety of language used by people belonging toa particular social class.6) idiolect: An idiolect is a personal dialect of an individualspeaker that combines aspects of all the elements regardingregional, social, and stylistic variation, in one form or another (以这样或那样的方式综合了有关地域、社会和文体变异的所有成份). In a narrower sense, what makes up one’s idiolectincludes also such factors as voice quality音质, pitch音高and speech rhythm言语节奏, which all contribute to theidentifying features in an individual’ s speech.7) register: a functional speech or language variety thatinvolves degrees of formality depending on the speechsituation concerned.8) standard language: a superposed(迭生的,重合的)prestigious variety of language of a community or nation,usually based on the speech and writing of educated nativespeakers of the language. (P170)9) nonstandard language: Language varieties other than thestandard are called nonstandard languages10) lingua franca: a variety of language that serves as a commonspeech for social contact among groups of people whospeak different native languages or dialects.11) pidgin: a marginal contact language with a limited vocabularyand reduced grammatical structures, used by nativespeakers of other languages as a means of businesscommunication.12) creole: A creole language is originally a pidgin that hasbecome established as a native language in some speechcommunity. When a pidgin comes to be adopted by apopulation as its primary language, and children learn it as their first language, then the pidgin language is called a creole.13) diglossia: a sociolinguistic situation in which two verydifferent varieties of language co-exist in a speech community, each serving a particular social function and used for a particular situation14) bilingualism: ilingualism refers to a linguistic situation inwhich two standard languages are used either by an individual or by a group of speakers, such as the inhabitants of a particular region or a nation.15) ethnic dialect: Within a society, speech variation may comeabout because of different ethnic backgrounds. An ethnic language variety is a social dialect of a language, often cutting across regional differences. An ethnic dialect is spoken mainly by a less privileged population that has experienced some form of social isolation, such as racial discrimination or segregation.16) slang: Slang is a casual use of language that consists ofexpressive but non-standard vocabulary, typically of arbitrary, flashy浮华的and often ephemeral短暂的coinages创新词and figures of speech characterized by spontaneity自发性and sometimes by raciness活泼,充满活力.17) linguistic taboo: an obscene猥亵的, profane,亵渎的orswear word or expression that is prohibited from general use by the educated and “polite” society.18) euphemism: a word or expression that is thought to be mild,indirect, or less offensive and used as a polite substitute for the supposedly harsh and unpleasant word or expression. 19) Domain使用域: Domain refers to the phenomenon that mostbilingual communities have one thing in common, that is, fairly clear functional differentiation of the two languages in respect of speech situations. For example: the Home Domain, Employment Domain etc.1) psycholinguistics: the study of language in relation to themind, with focus on the processes of language production生成, comprehension理解and acquisition掌握.2) cerebral cortex: the outside surface of the brain, it is thedecision-making organ of the body, which receives messages from all the sensory organs and where human cognitive abilities reside.3) brain lateralization: the localization of cognitive andperceptual functions in a particular hemisphere of the brain.4) linguistic lateralization: hemispheric specialization ordominance for language.5) dichotic listening: a research technique which has been usedto study how the brain controls hearing and language. The subjects wear earphones and simultaneously receive different sounds in the right and left ear, and are then asked to repeat what they hear.6) Broca’s area : It refers to the frontal lobe in the left cerebralhemisphere, which is vital to language. This area is discovered by Paul Broca, a French surgeon and anatomist.。
现代语言学流派概论读书笔记
语言不仅是交流信息的手段,也是和别人建立关系并维持关系的手段,而且语言在传递关于说话人的信息方面也有非常重要的作用。
有着不同社会背景和地理背景的人使用的语言各异,说话方式也不同,这就形成方言,方言有地里方言和地理方言两种。
社会影响语言,社会所处的自然环境、社会结构和社会价值观念影响语言。
从社会角度研究语言就形成了社会语言学。
英国的彼得。
特拉吉尔编著的社会语言学导论这本书从七个方面介绍并解释了社会中各种语言现象。
开头,作者解释了有关方言和语言的概念。
首先,他认为方言或语言没有明确的界线,使用两种语言或方言的国家或地区能互相听懂,之所以要将它分成两种语言或方言,是有地理、政治、文化因素形成的。
作者指出,“方言一词指的是一个语言的不同类词之间的差别、语法差别和发音差别,“方言”一词能适用于所有变体,并不仅仅只非标准变体。
由此我们可以推知,汉语在不同的地方,词类、语法、语音上有不同的变化,可见,普通话有很多地方方言。
普通话可以看做一种标准汉语,可以说是在书刊上使用、学校里讲授、外族人学习的一种汉语变体。

现代语言学复习要点现代语言学是研究语言的本质、结构、演化和使用的学科,涉及到语音学、语法学、语义学、语用学等多个方面。
下面是现代语言学中的重要知识点,帮助您进行复习。
语音学音位与音素音位是语音学中的基本单位,是被感知为一种有区别的声音的语音单位。
音素是语音学中的一个概念,是语音中能够起差别作用的最小单位。
一种语音中可能存在多个音位,但其对应的音素数量通常比较少。
### 调值语音学中通常使用调值来表示声音的高低的。
不同的语言中可能有不同数量的调,比如汉语中有四个音调,英语中没有固定的调值。
### 音系音系是指一种语言中所有音位(包括所有音素)的总体,包括其音位的数量、种类和分布等方面。
语法学句子成分句子成分是指构成句子的基本单词、短语或从句。
一般来说,句子成分包括主语、谓语、宾语、定语、状语等。
### 句子结构句子结构是指句子内不同成分的组成方式。
对于不同语言,其句子结构可能存在明显差异,如英语中主语一般出现在谓语前,而在汉语中通常是在谓语后。
### 语法关系语法关系是指句子中不同成分之间的关系,如主语与谓语之间的关系、宾语与谓语之间的关系等。
语义学词义词义是单词所表达的概念或意义。
不同的单词可能存在相同或相似的词义,因此在语义学中通常需要进行词义分类和比较。
### 语义关系语义关系是指单词、短语、句子等之间的意义相互联系。
常见的语义关系包括同义关系、反义关系、上下位关系等。
### 语篇意义语篇意义是指句子及其上下文所构成的整体意义。
在语篇分析中,不仅要关注句子内部的语义关系,还需考虑句子与上下文之间的语义关系。
语用学言语行为言语行为是指言语交流过程中所体现的具体行为,如陈述、命令、请求、批评等。
不同类型的言语行为具有不同的功能和表达方式。
### 语用礼貌语用礼貌是指在言语交际过程中对他人尊重、友好的表达方式。
常见的语用礼貌策略包括委婉语、礼貌用语、双重否定等。
### 上下文依存言语交际过程中,具体表达的含义通常需要依赖于上下文信息。

一、语言的定义和本质语言是人类用于交流和思维的符号系统。
它具有任意性、二层性、创造性和移位性等特征。
任意性指语言符号的形式与其所代表的意义之间没有必然的、内在的联系,是约定俗成的。
比如“书”这个词为什么代表书籍这一概念,并没有天然的逻辑联系,只是大家都这样认同和使用。
二层性是指语言具有语音和语法两个层面。
语音层是语言的外在表现形式,而语法层则是组织和规则,使得语音能够组合成有意义的语言单位。
创造性使得我们能够用有限的语言单位创造出无限的表达方式,来传达各种新的思想和概念。
移位性则让我们可以谈论过去、未来和不在眼前的事物。
二、语言的结构语言结构包括语音、词汇、语法和语义等方面。
语音学研究语言的声音系统,包括元音、辅音的发音特点,以及语音的组合和变化规律。
词汇是语言的建筑材料,包括词的构成、词义的演变和词汇的分类等。
语法规则决定了词如何组合成句子,包括词法和句法。
词法涉及词的形态变化,如名词的复数、动词的时态等;句法则关注句子的结构和成分。
语义学探讨语言符号与它们所指称的对象之间的关系,研究词义和句义的理解和表达。
三、语言的功能语言具有多种功能,如交际功能、思维功能、记录功能、文化传承功能等。
交际功能是语言最基本的功能,使人们能够相互交流信息、表达情感和想法。
思维功能帮助我们组织和表达思维,语言和思维相互影响,相互促进。
记录功能让我们能够将知识、经验和历史等信息保存下来。
文化传承功能则通过语言传递文化传统、价值观念和社会规范。
四、语言的发展语言是不断发展变化的。
语言的发展受到社会、历史、文化等多种因素的影响。
新词汇不断产生,旧词汇可能逐渐消亡或改变意义。
例如,随着科技的发展,出现了“互联网”“智能手机”等新词汇。
语音和语法也会发生变化,语音的演变可能导致读音的改变,语法规则可能会简化或变得更加复杂。

语言学笔记大全第一章语言的社会功能一、什么是语言?什么是说话?语言是音义结合的符号系统,人类最重要的交际工具和思维工具。
说话是人们运用语言工具跟人们交流思想的行为。
二、语言和说话的关系要弄清楚“什么是语言”的问题,首先要弄清楚的是,语言和说话不是一回事。
语言不等于说话,也不等于说出来的话。
说话是运用语言跟人们交流思想的行为,本身不等于语言。
但是,另一方面,语言的存在又必须以说话为前提,一个人如果长期生活在孤岛上,没有说话的需要,不跟人交谈,他就会失去语言能力。
如刘连仁的例子(课本37页)。
这件事告诉我们语言与说话的联系与区别:语言好象是一种工具,需要人去用,不用就会“生锈”,就会“退化”。
而说话则是人们运用语言工具跟人们交流思想的行为,说出来的话是这种行为“生产”出来的“产品”,是为了适应他人的需要而存在的,没有这种需要,人们就会丧失说话的语言能力,这就是等于说:语言不等于说话,也不等于说出来的话。
那么,什么是语言?它在哪儿?回答是:语言存在于说话之中,人们可以从所说的话中找出语言来。
三、语言的作用是什么?语言是人类社会的交际工具。
每个社会,无论它是经济发达的社会,还是经济十分落后的社会,都必须有自己的语言,都离不开语言这个交际工具,语言是组成社会必不可少的一个因素,是人类与动物相区别的重要特征之一。
语言是联系社会成员的桥梁和纽带,没有语言,人类无法交际,人与人之间的联系就会中断,社会就会崩溃,不复存在。
四、什么是社会?什么是交际工具?所谓社会,就是指生活在同一个共同的地域中、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,既一般所说的部落、部族和民族。
交际工具是指人们用来交流思想,进行交际的工具。
五、为什么说语言是人类最重要的交际工具?人们在进行社会交际的时候,除了运用语言传递信息外,也可以借助其他手段传递信息,表达思想。
比如运动场上,篮球教练用手势表示谁犯规、谁发球等内容,不用语言;部队用长短不同的号声表示起床、集合、冲锋、撤退等信息;在海上,船与船之间用旗语传递信息等等。
现代语言学学习笔记第一章、绪论Introduction1、语言学的主要分支是什么。
每个分支的研究对象是什么?Linguistics mainly involves the following branches:General linguistics, which is the study of language as a whole and which deals with the basic concepts, theories, descriptions, models and methods applicable in any linguistic study Phonetics, which studies the sounds that are used in linguistic communicationPhonology, which studies how sounds are put together and used in communication Morphology, which studies the way in which morphemes are arranged to form words Syntax, which studies how morphemes and words are combined to form sentences Semantics, which is the study of meaning in language.Pragmatics, which is the study of meaning not in isolation, but in context of use Sociolinguistics, which is the study of language with reference to society Psycholinguistics, which is the study of language with reference to the workings of mind. Applied linguistics, which is concerned about the application of linguistic findings in linguistic studies; In a narrow sense, applied linguistics refers to the application of linguistic principles and theories to language teaching and learning, especially the teaching of foreign and second languages.Other related branches are anthropological linguistics, neurological linguistics, mathematical linguistics, and computational linguistics.2、现代语言学与传统语法有什么区别?Traditional grammar is prescriptive; it is based on "high "(religious, literary) written language . It sets models for language users to follow. But Modern linguistics is descriptive; its investigations are based on authentic, and mainly spoken language data. It is supposed to be scientific and objective and the task of linguists is supposed to describe the language people actually use, whether it is "correct" or not.3、什么叫共时研究?什么叫历时研究?The description of a language at some point in time is a Synchronic study; the description of a language as it changes through time is a diachronic study. A synchronic study of language describes a language as it is at some particular point in rime, while a diachronic study of language is a historical study; it studies the historical development of language over a period of time.4、人类语言的甄别性特征是什么?1) Arbitrariness 。
It means that there is no logical connection between meanings and sounds. For instance, there is no necessary relationship between the word dog and the animal it refers to. The fact that different sounds are used to refer to the same object in different languages and that the same sound may be used to refer to different objects is another good example. Although language is arbitrary by nature, it is not entirely arbitrary. Some words, such as the words created in the imitation of sounds by sounds are motivated in a certain degree. The arbitrary nature of language makes it possible for language to have an unlimited source of expressions.2) Productivity 。
Language is productive or creative in that it makes possible the construction and interpretation of an infinitely large number of sentences, including those that they have never said or heard before.3) Duality 。
It means that language is a system, which consists of two sets of structure, or two levels, one of sounds at the lower level and the other of meanings at the higher level. At the loweror the basic level, there is the structure of individual and meaningless sounds, which can be grouped into meaningful units at the higher level. This duality of structure or double articulation of language enables its users to talk about anything within their knowledge.4) Displacement 。
It means that language can be used to talk about what happened in the past, what is happening now, or what will happen in the future. Language can also be used to talk about our real word experiences or the experiences in our imaginary world. In other words, language can be used to refer to contexts removed from the immediate situations of the speaker.5) Cultural transmission 。
While we are born with the ability to acquire language, the details of any language are not genetically transmitted, but instead have to be taught and learned anew.5、Chomsky的语言能力和语言使用各指什么?American linguist N. Chomsky in the late 1950’s proposed the distinction between competence and performance. Chomsky defines competence as the ideal user’s knowledge of the rules of his language. This internalized set of rules enables the language user to produce and understand an infinitely large number of sentences and recognize sentences that are ungrammatical and ambiguous. According to Chomsky, performance is the actual realization of this knowledge in linguistic communication. Although the speaker’s knowledge of his mother tongue is perfect, his performances may have mistakes because of social and psychological factors such as stress, embarrassment, etc.. Chomsky believes that what linguists should study is the competence, which is systematic, not the performance, which is too haphazard.6、Saussure 是如何区分语言和言语的?The distinction between langue, and parole was made by the famous Swiss linguist Ferdinand de Saussure early this century. Langue and parole are French words. Langue refers to the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of a speech community, and parole refers to the realization of langue in actual use. Langue is the set of conventions and rules which language users all have to follow while parole is the concrete use of the conventions and the application of the rules. Langue is abstract;It is not the language people actually use, but parole is concrete; it refers to the naturally occurring language events. Langue is relatively stable, it does not change frequently; while parole varies from person to person, and from situation to situation.7、什么是语言学?Linguistics is generally defined as the scientific study of language. It studies not any particular language, but languages in general.8、口头语与书面语Speech enjoys priority over writing in modern linguistics study for the following reasons:1) speech precedes writing in terms of evolution2) a large amount of communication is carried out in speech tan in writing3) speech is the form in which infants acquire their native language9、语言与言语Language refers to the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of a speech communityParole refers to the realization of language in actual use10、能力与运用Chomsky defines competence as the ideal users’ knowledge of the rules of his language Performance: the actual realization of this knowledge in linguistic communication11、几个术语Prescriptive:aims to lay down rules for "correct" behaviour.Descriptive:describe and analyzes the language people actually use.Synchronic:the description of a language at some point in time.Diachronic:the description of a language as it changes through time .Synchronic study seems to enjoy priority over diachronic study.langue: the abstract linguistic system shared by all the members of a speech community. Parole: the realization of langue in actual use.Competence: the ideal user's knowledge of the rules of his language.Performance: the actual realization of this knowledge in linguistic communication.12、Design featuresAmerican linguist Charles Hockett spedified 12 design features, five of which will be discussed here.1) Arbitratiness。
