1、学习必备欢迎下载Chapter one The basic concepts of words and vocabulary 1.1 The definition of a word (1)一个最小的自由形态(2)一个发音的集合体(3)一个意义单位(4)能独自影响句子的形式因此,我们能说 “ 词语是语言最小的自由形式,拥有固定的声音和意义以及句法作用。”1.2 vocabulary All the words in a language make up its vocabulary. The general estimate of the English vocabulary is over
2、one million words. 1.3Sound and meaning 词语是一个符号,代表着世界上其他的事物。每种世界文化已经赞成一定的读音将代表一定的人,事,地方,特性,过程,行动,当然是在语言系统之外。这种象征性的联系几乎总是主观的,并且 “ 在代表事物和思想的声音和实际的事物和思想之间没有法定关系。”1.4 sound and form 在古英语中,口语比今天更忠实地代表书面语,但随着语言的发展,越来越多的不同出现在口语和书面语之间。有以下几点原因:1.内因是因为英语字母表采用罗马字母,罗马字母没有独立的字母代表每个读音,精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归

4、同Those scribes had made some change to the word spelling 4.到 1500年年末,印刷已经变得非常普及。它有助于固定单词的拼写。同时,读音继续如往常变化,以此带来了更多的不同。In the late 1500, printing became well established. It helped to freeze and standardize the spelling of words. Meanwhile, sounds continued to change as usual, thus bringing more differ
5、ence. 5.当英语从其他语言中借鉴单词时,它同样借用了拼写。早期的借词被同化,后来则不再遵守英语的发音规则和拼写规则最后得出的结论是;英语的书写是发音形式不完善的代表the written form of English is, there for , an imperfect representation of the phonemic elements of the spoken language. 1.5 classification of words 根据使用频率,单词可以分为基础词和非基础词。可以根据概念分成实词和虚词,可以根据来源分为本地词和借词。1. basic word s

Stability 稳定性(基础词已经被使用若干世纪,例如人火山水太阳月亮。由于它们代表生活需要的普遍事物,它们很可能保持不变)3. Productivity 多产性(基础词大多是词根。它们每个都能单独使用同时可以和其他词根或词缀一起构成

9、们包括名词,动词 ,形容词,副词和数词 . 功能词 : Functional words do not have notions of their own. Therefore, they are also called empty words. As their chief function is to express the relation between notions, the relation between words as well as between sentences, they are known as form words. Prepositions, conjunc
10、tions, auxiliaries and article belong to this category. 功能词没有他们自己的概念。因此,他们也称作 “ 空词” 。由于他们的主要功能是去表达概念间的关系,词语间和句子间的关系,他们被认为是“ 结构词 ” 。介词,连词,辅助词和冠词属于这一类3. native words and borrowed words 本地词和外来词本地词 : 本地词在五世纪由日尔曼人带到英国,盎格鲁,撒克逊,还有朱特人,因此被认为是盎格鲁撒克逊词汇。盎格鲁撒克逊源头词数量很少,大约在50000 到 60000之间,但是他们构成了基本词储的主流,并且处在语言的核心。
11、因此,真正的基础词其实也是真正的本地词。和基本词储的特征相分离,和外来词相对比,本地词还有两个其他特征:1)Neutral in style 风格中性于本地词表示人类社会中最常见事物,他们被所有人使用,在所有地方使用,在所有场合使用,在任何时候使用。因此,他们没有独特的特点2)Frequent in use 频繁使用外来词 : 精选学习资料 - - - - - - - - - 名师归纳总结 - - - - - - -第 3 页,共 39 页学习必备欢迎下载外来词分为四类:1.

17、axons, Frisians and Jutes invaded the rich lowland. Their language, known as Anglo- Saxon, dominated and almost totally blotted out the Celtic. Old English (the Anglo-Saxon) has a vocabulary of about 50000 to 60000 words, which are almost monogeneous and entirely Germanic with only a few borrowings
18、from Latin and Scandinavian. Old English was a highly inflected language. Nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs had complex systems of endings or vowel changes or both, which digger greatly form the language that we use today. 2. Middle English (1150-1500) The Norman Conquest produced two

These morphemes have complete meanings in themselves and can be used as free grammatical units in sentences

31、nction. All affixes are bound morphemes. Affixes can fall into prefix and suffix. 2. Root, Stem and Base A root is the basic form of a word which cannot be further analyzed without total loss of identity. A root is that part of a word form that remains when all inflectional and derivational affixes
32、have been removed. A stem may consist of a single root morpheme as in iron or of two root morphemes as in handcuff. A stem is that part of the word-form which remains when all inflectional affixes have been removed. In other words, any form to which an inflectional affix is attached is a stem.A base
