英语词汇学中的名词解释一、引言语言是人类交流的重要工具,而词汇则是构建语言的基本单位。
英语作为一种全球通用语言,其词汇系统庞大且丰富多样。
而英语词汇学则是研究英语中词汇的起源、发展和使用的学科。
本文将介绍英语词汇学中的一些重要概念和名词解释,帮助读者更好地理解英语词汇学的基本原理。
二、词汇1. 词汇词汇是指语言中的词语或词组的总和。
它是语言表达的基本单位,承载着语义和语法信息。
在英语词汇学中,词汇研究的范围包括词义、词法、词族和词汇的构成等方面。
2. 词义词义是指词语或词组所携带的意义。
在英语中,一个词可能有多个词义,这取决于其上下文的使用和语境的影响。
词义也可以通过词根、词缀和上下文等途径推断或推测。
3. 词法词法是研究词语形态和构词法的学科。
它关注词语的形态变化和构成规则,包括单数复数形式、时态变化、派生、合成等方面。
词法是理解和学习英语词汇的重要基础。
4. 词族词族是指具有共同词根的一组相关词语。
这些词语在含义上有一定的联系,但在形态和语法上可能存在差异。
研究词族可以帮助我们更好地理解和记忆词汇。
5. 词汇构成词汇构成是指由词根、词缀和其他语法成分组合而成的词语。
在英语中,许多词汇都是通过加上前缀、后缀或派生词缀来构建的。
研究词汇构成可以帮助我们学习和运用更多的词汇。
三、语义1. 语义语义是研究语言意义的学科。
它关注语言符号和所表示的意义之间的关系,包括词语、句子和篇章的意义。
在英语词汇学中,研究语义可以帮助我们理解和区分词语之间的差异。
2. 同义词同义词是指在特定语境下具有类似或相同意义的词语。
在英语中,同义词的选择可以丰富语言的表达,同时也对理解和翻译起到重要作用。
3. 反义词反义词是指在意义上相对对立或相互排斥的词语。
它们可以用来表达相反的概念或情感。
在英语中,反义词常常通过前缀、后缀或词根的变化来形成。
4. 上位词与下位词上位词是指泛指概念的词语,下位词则是指具体的概念。
例如,动物是"猫"的上位词,而"猫"是动物的下位词。
词汇期末复习(C1-C7)Chapter 1一、Word 词的定义(1) a minimal free form(最小的自由形式)(2) a sound unity(3) a semantic unity(meaning)(4) a form that can function alone in a sentence.(具有句法功能)二、V ocabulary词汇的定义All the words in a language make up what is generally known as vocabulary.一般来说,词汇指的是一种语言里所有单词的总和。
词的总和构成语言的词汇。
词与词汇之间的关系是个体与总体之间的关系。
三、Sound&Meaning发音和意义The connection between the sound (form) and meaning is arbitrary (任意的) and conventional.二者的关系是约定俗成、随意的四、Sound & Form发音和形式(1)The written form of a natural language is the orthographical(正字的)record of the oral form. 自然语言的书写形式是口语形式的书写记录。
(2)The reasons of differences occur between sound and form: 发音与形式不同的原因:①English alphabet was adopted from the Romans 英语字母表来自罗马②the pronunciation has changed more rapidly than spelling over the years. 发音改变快速③Differences created by professional scribes. 专业抄写员的不同④More differences brought by the continuing change of sounds and the standardization of spelling.发音不断变化,书写标准化。
词汇学复习资料词汇学复习资料词汇学是语言学的一个重要分支,研究词汇的构成、分类和使用规律。
对于学习一门语言来说,掌握丰富的词汇是非常重要的。
在这篇文章中,我们将提供一些词汇学的复习资料,帮助读者巩固和扩展词汇量。
一、词汇的构成词汇是语言的基本单位,是由一个或多个音素组成的。
在不同的语言中,词汇的构成方式也有所不同。
例如,英语中的词汇主要由字母组成,而汉语中的词汇则由汉字组成。
1. 字母构词法英语中的词汇通常由字母组成,可以通过添加前缀、后缀和词根来构成新的词汇。
例如,单词“unhappiness”由前缀“un-”(表示否定)和词根“happy”组成。
2. 字形构词法汉语中的词汇由汉字组成,可以通过添加偏旁部首、衍生字和合成字来构成新的词汇。
例如,汉字“学”可以通过添加偏旁部首“子”来构成“字”,表示学习。
二、词汇的分类词汇可以按照不同的分类标准进行分类,例如按照词性、语义和用途等。
下面是一些常见的词汇分类。
1. 词性分类词汇可以分为名词、动词、形容词、副词、代词、介词、连词和感叹词等不同的词性。
名词用来表示人、事物或概念,动词用来表示动作或状态,形容词用来描述人或事物的特征,副词用来修饰动词、形容词或其他副词,代词用来代替名词,介词用来表示位置、时间或方式,连词用来连接词语或句子,感叹词用来表示强烈的情感。
2. 语义分类词汇可以按照词义的相似性进行分类。
例如,可以将名词按照人、动物、植物、物体、抽象概念等进行分类;将动词按照行为、状态、感觉、思维等进行分类;将形容词按照颜色、大小、形状、性质等进行分类。
3. 用途分类词汇可以按照在句子中的作用进行分类。
例如,可以将词汇分为实词和虚词。
实词包括名词、动词、形容词和副词,它们在句子中起到实际的意义;虚词包括代词、介词、连词和感叹词,它们在句子中起到连接或修饰的作用。
三、词汇的使用规律词汇的使用规律是指在特定语境中使用词汇的约束条件。
不同的语言和不同的语境中,词汇的使用规律也有所不同。

That is, the meaning of a more specific word is included in that of another more general word.Primary meaning is the only first meaning that a word had when it was created.Extension (Generalization) A process by which a word which originally had a specialized me aning has now become generalized.Narrowing (Specialication) It is also called specialication. It is the opposite of widening meaning. It is a process by which a word of wide meaning acquires a narrower or specialized sense.Degradation is a process whereby words of good origin fall into ill reputation or non-affective words come to be used in derogatory sense..Amelioration ( Elevation ) is also called elevation, a term referring to the process by which words rise from humble beginning to positions of importance..Transfer words which were used to designate one thing but later changed to mean something else have experienced the process of semantic transfer.Linguistic context refers to the words, clauses, sentenses in which a word appears.Extra-linguistic context is also called non-linguistic context, which includes people, time, place, even the whole cultural background..Lexical context refers to the word occur together with the word in question.Grammatical context In some cases, the meaning of a word may be influenced by the structure in which it occurs.Metonymy the name of one thing is used for that of another associated with it.Synecdoche is that of substituting part for the whole and vice versa.Idioms strictly speaking, idioms are expr essions that are not readily understandable from their literal meanings of individual elements.Idioms nominal in nature idioms of this class have a noun as the key word in each and function as a noun in sentences.Specialized dictionary is a dictionary concentrationg on a particular area of language or knowledge.

”20世纪50年代以前大行其道的美国描写语言学派等将“词汇”作为“实体”,加以排斥,“发现程序”中找不到“词汇”的影子。
50年代发轫的乔姆斯基转换生成语言学虽不排斥语义,但其语义分析是为语法分析服务的,而依然无意于对一种语言的词汇作全面系统的研究。
直至70年代初,欧美才开始真正关注词汇研究,80年代以来词汇学才始结果。
值得称道的是前苏联,自20世纪50年代开始,语言学界逐步加大词汇研究的力度,在普通词汇学和描写词汇学领域创获颇多,50年代以来出版了100多本词汇学、语义学著作。
二.词汇学的类别1.普通词汇学和个别词汇学普通词汇学是研究语言中的词汇的一般规律的词汇学子学科。
如张永言的《词汇学简论》:词的定义等,词的意义,词的词汇类别:语义类别、地域方言词语、社会方言词语、新词和旧词、基本词汇问题、外来词、口语词汇和书面语词汇、表情词汇(褒贬词语)、同义词、反义词、同音词、熟语。
个别词汇学是研究某种具体语言的词汇的独特规律的词汇学子学科。
如陆国强的《现代英语词汇学》。
2.词汇的历时研究和共时研究历时研究:历史比较词汇学和历史词汇学。
两者都是一种纵向的研究,研究词汇发展规律。
不同的是:前者研究亲属语言词汇间、不同方言词汇间的词语的同源关系及不同的发展轨迹。
后者研究具体语言词汇的发展演变规律,如汪维辉的《东汉—隋唐常用词演变研究》,吕传峰《常用词“嘴”的词义演变及其与“口”的历时竞争》(《语言研究》06年1期)、《近代汉语喝类语义场的演变及相关问题》(《语言学论丛》33辑)。
共时研究:也叫描写词汇学。
是一种横向研究,横断面式的研究。
如刘叔新等的著作。
有时两者有交叉。
如王卫峰的《上古汉语词义派生研究》,顾之川的《明代汉语词汇研究》:绪论、明代白话文献、古语词、方言词、口语词、外来语、社会习惯语、隐语、熟语、新词新义、同源词、同义词、反义词、明代汉语构词法。
第一章:A word can be defined as a fundamental unit of speech and a minimum free form; with a unity of sound and meaning, capable of performing a given syntactic function The development of English Vocabulary.①Old English (OE) (449-1100)OE is chracterized by the frequent use of compounds. Some OE compounds involving alliteration have survived in Modern English.About 85% of OE words are no longer in use.②Middle English (1100-1500)ME is characterized by the strong influence of French following the Norman Conquest in 1066.(law and governmental administration)③Modern English (1500-the present)The rapid growth of present-day English vocabulary and its causes:A. marked progress of science and technology (software, hardware)B.socio-economic, political and cultural changes(credit card, fringe benefit, pressure cooker)C. influence of other cultures and languages(maotai, sputnik)classification of English words according to different criteria 1. By origin:native words and loan words。
Native words(Anglo-Saxon origin of OE) Loan words(borrowed from other language) features of basic word stock:1.National character2.Stability3.Word-forming ability4.Ability to form collocations. 2.By level of usage(1)Common words: stylistically neutral, appropriate in both formal and informal writing and speech(2)Literary words:chiefly used in writing, especially in books written in a more elevated style, in official documents, or in formal speeches .A. archaic words: They are sometimes employed in poetry, business letters, legal documents, religious speeches, and proses.B.poetical words(the deep (the sea), slumber (sleep) maiden( girl), etc.)(3) colloquial words:mainly used in spoken English, or in informal writing.(4) slang words(kick the bucket, top-notch teachers, buzz( telephone call)(5) technical words(psychoanalysis, interlanguage, discovery, assault and coversation)3. By notion Function words: determiners, conjunctions, prepositions, auxiliaries.Content words: nouns, main verbs, adjectives, adverbs.第二章:The morpheme is the smallest meaningful linguistic unit of language, not divisible or analyzable into smaller forms.The classification of morpheme:1.free and bound morphemes: A free morpheme is one that can be uttered alone with meaning. It can exist on its own without a bound morpheme. A bound morpheme cannot stand by itself as a complete utterance. It must appear with at least one other morpheme.2. roots and affixes 1) roots: A root is the basic unchangeable part of a word, and it conveys the main lexical meaning of the word. A. free roots:In English, many roots are free morphemes. B. bound roots:Quite a number of roots derived from foreign sources, especially fromGreek and Latin.2) affixes A. inflectional affixes: plurality, tense, comparative or superlative degree. B. derivational affixes (prefixes and suffixes)第三章:1. Derivation(1)prefixes:Prefixes can be classified into the following categories by their meaning.A. 表“方式”的前缀(mis.co.mal)B. 表“态度”的前缀(anti.counter.pro.re) C. 表“程度”的前缀(super.under.over)D. 表“时间”的前缀(pre.post.ex.pre)E. 表“地点”的前缀(inter.trans.super.over.sub)F. 表“否定”的前缀(un.in)G. 表“大小”的前缀(mini.maxi)(2)suffixes(1) -ee:加于动词后,表示受事者或施事者(2) -eer: 由其构成的名词有时含有贬义,表达作者或说话人对某人的蔑视态度(3)-er: 由其构成的新词在现代英语中显得生动活泼,带有浓厚的口语色彩(4) -ism(5) -wise: (in terms of, so far as... is concerned)在......方面,就......来说2.Conversion is a word-formation process whereby a word of a certain word-class is shift into a word of another word-class without the addition of an affix. It is also called zero –derivation. Types of conversion 1.①N to V conversion A. to put in/on N 把.......放入.......使.......处于.......B. to give N, to provide with N 给予,提供C. to deprive of N 去掉D. to ......with N 用......来做E. to be/act as N with respect to 像......那样F. to make/change... into N 使......成为......,把.......改变为......G. to send/go by NH. to spend the period of time denoted by N②Adj to ually this type of verb means "to make/become...adj.”Some adjectives can only be converted into transitive verbs. ③adv. to V(to up. To down)④conjunction to V(to but)2. ①V to N这一类词常与动词have, take, give, make 等词搭配使用形成一个短语2)表示行动的结果(a find, a catch, a cough, etc. )3) 原动词表示一种行动或行为,转化为名词后表示行为的主体,如:(a bore, a cheat, a sneak, a coach, a good kick)②A to N(1) Partial conversionA. 表示一种类的概念,指具有某种特点的一类人,不指个别人。
B. 以-s, -sh, -se, -ch结尾表示民族概念的形容词转化为名词,与定冠词连用,指整个民族C.表示抽象概念,指具有某种特点的东西D.最高级形容词转化为名词,其中一些词用在固定词组或英语习语词组中。
E. 过去分词构成的形容词转化为名词。
这类词前面加定冠词,不指一般人,而指特定的人。
