Chapter Three Morphology形态学
一、定义
1. Morphology形态学：t he study of the internal structure of words (内部研究), and the rules by which words are formed.
对单词的内部结构和单词构成规则的研究。
2. Morpheme 词素：The smallest unit of language that carries information about meaning or function.
最小的语言单位,携带信息的意义或功能。
二、知识点
3.2 Distinctions between open and close classes word
1. Open class words开放性词类: In English, nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs make up the largest part of vocabulary. They are content words of a language.，which are sometimes called open class words, since new words can be added to these classes regularly. 在英语中，名词、动词、
形容词和副词占词汇的绝大部分。他们是一门语言中的实义词，由于我们经常可以在这类词中加入新词，所以他们有时也称开放性词类。
2. Close classes word封闭性词类：Conjunctions, prepositions, articles and pronouns is small and stable since few new words are added , therefore such words have been referred to as closed class words. 构成连词、介词、冠词和代词的词相对较少，通常不添加新词，所以被称为封闭性词类。
~?~ 3.3 Morphemes—the minimal units of meaning最小的意义单位一. Free Morpheme自由词素: A morpheme which can be a word by itself is called a free morpheme.自由词素有着完整的语义，
它们被称为自由语素是因为它们可以作为单词独立使用。(Eg. 如helpful中的hel p就是自由词素，因为help可以作为独立的单词来使用。自由词素除了可以作为独立的单词使用以外，它们也可以和其它语素相结合构成单词。)
二. Bound morphemes黏着词素: The morpheme that must be attached to another one is a bound morpheme. 黏着词素，顾名思义，是
必须黏附在其它语素上构成单词，它们不能作为单词独立使用。（如,helpful中的-ful 就是一个黏着词素。1.黏着词素可以和自由词素结合构成单词，如child+ish。2.也可以和黏着语素结合构成单词,如pre+dict。）
3.4 Analyzing word structures分析词的结构
1 .Roots词根：The root constitutes the core of the word and carries the major component of its meaning. 词根由词的核心它和携带的主要意
义构成。（词根是单词的一部分，尽管它们有着明确的语义，但是它们不能单独使用，必须和其它语素或词根结合使用构成单词。例如；在单词antecedent 中，ante- 是前缀，表示before, -ced-是词根，意思是go, -ent是后缀,表示a thing or a person。）Roots belongs to a lexical category词的范畴：nouns(N), verbs(V), adjectives(A) and prepositions(P).
2. Affixes词缀：Unlike roots, affixes do not belong to a lexical category and are always bound morpheme.与词根不同，词缀不属于一个词汇范畴,它总是粘词素。（eg. 词缀-er是一个粘着词素，与动词例如teach 组成teacher：一个教育的人，即教师，n.名词）用图表示p34：
3.5 Derivational and inflectional morphemes派生词素和曲折词素（the morpheme which change the category, or grammatical class words.在英语中有些词可以改变词的范畴或词的语法。）：
(1)3.7 Derivation 派生法：derivation is an affixational process that
forms a word with a meaning and/or category distinct from that of its bases.派生法是一个能组成一个有意义或与它基本意义不同范畴的新词的词缀化的过程。
Derivational morphemes 派生词素: When they conjoined to other morphemes (or words), new words are derived, or formed. 当他们与其它词素(或文字)结合时可以派生、形成新单词。(派生词缀是加在词干上构成新词的词缀。这种构成新词的方法叫派生法，所构成的词叫派生词）
派生词缀又根据在单词中的位置分为前缀和后缀两类。
①前缀出现在单词的前边。前缀的主要功能是改变词干的语义，一般来说前缀不改变
词的词性，如，当我们在friendly前边加上un-时，它的语义发生了改变，但是单
词的词性不变。但是，也有一些例外情况，如：unearth, enlarge, prewar等。
②后缀加在词干的后边。后缀主要改变词性，也可以改变语义的功能。
（2）inflectional morphemes屈折词素: They are attached to words or morphemes, but they never change their syntactic category.他们附着与单词或词素，但是他们永远不会改变其句法范畴。（屈折词缀加在词干的后边，传递不同的语法关系或语法范畴，如数、时、格等。如books中的-s是屈折词缀，传递复数；wiser中的-er是屈折词缀，传递比较级概念等。）
三. Allomorphs 词素变体
词素可能有不同的形式，例如：
(1)由于表达英语中不定冠词有2种形式：a 用于辅音前，an 用于元音前。eg. :an orange , a building
(2)eg. : books /s/, bags /z/, judges /iz/. 这三个后缀-s都是表示复数但读音不同。
The variant forms of a morpheme are called its allomorphs.
词素的不同形式称为词素变体。
3.6 Morphological rules of word formation构词法的形态学规则Morphological rules 形态学规则：They are rules that govern which affix can be added to what type of stem to form a new word. 形态学规则主要指英语中通过派生方式来构成新词的构词规则，即将词缀加到词干上去构成新词的规则。（英语中虽然存在一定的形态学规则，但是这并不意
味着依据这些规则构成的词都是可接受的词。比如，我们可以在形容词前加un-构成否定形式，如unhappy, unfortunate等，但是如果我们依据这一规则在good 前边加上un- ,那么就会生造出ungood来，因此切不可过度概括和滥用形态学规则，以免出错。）
3.8 Compounds复合词（表并列）
Compounds words复合词:is by stringging words together. 复合法指把两个或两个以上的词结合在一起构成新词的方法。
1.复合词可以用不同的标准来分类。根据复合词构成成分的词性来分类，复合词通常有：

《新编简明英语语言学教程》第二版练习题参考答案 Chapter 1 Introduction 1. How do you interpret the following definition of linguistics: Linguistics is the scientific study of language. 答：Linguistics is based on the systematic investigation of linguistic data, conducted with reference to some general theory of language structure. In order to discover the nature and rules of the underlying language system, the linguists has to collect and observe language facts first, which are found to display some similarities, and generalizations are made about them; then he formulates some hypotheses about the language structure. The hypotheses thus formed have to be checked repeatedly against the observed facts to fully prove their validity. In linguistics, as in any other discipline, data and theory stand in a dialectical complementation, that is, a theory without the support of data can hardly claim validity, and data without being explained by some theory remain a muddled mass of things. 2. What are the major branches of linguistics? What does each of them study? 答：The major branches of linguistics are: (1) phonetics: it studies the sounds used in linguistic communication; (2) phonology: it studies how sounds are put together and used to convey meaning in communication; (3) morphology: it studies the way in which linguistic symbols representing sounds are arranged and combined to form words; (4) syntax: it studies the rules which govern how words are combined to form grammatically permissible sentences in languages;

新编简明英语语言学知识点汇总1 Introduction 1.1 What is linguistics? Scientific study of language.
Language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication. Characteristics: ①language is system,elements of language are combined according to the rules;
②language is arbitrary in the sense that there is no intrinsic connection between a linguistic symbol and what it stands for, A rose by any other name would smell as well; ③language is vocal because the primary medium for all language is sound; Language is a system which consists of two structures. At the lower level there is a structure of sounds,which are meaningless by themselves.But the sounds can grouped or regrouped together into a larger numbers of units of meaning such as morpheme or words,which are found at the higher level of system(carp & park).Then the higher level can be arranged and rearranged into an infinite numbers of sentences;

《新编简明英语语言学教程》第二版第4章练习题 参考答案 Chapter 4 Syntax 1. What is syntax? Syntax is a branch of linguistics that studies how words are combined to form sentences and the rules that govern the formation of sentences. 2. What is phrase structure rule? The grammatical mechanism that regulates the arrangement of elements (i.e. specifiers, heads, and complements) that make up a phrase is called a phrase structure rule. The phrase structural rule for NP, VP, AP, and PP can be written as follows: NP →(Det) N (PP) ... VP →(Qual) V (NP) ... AP →(Deg) A (PP) ... PP →(Deg) P (NP) ... We can formulate a single general phrasal structural rule in which X stands for the head N, V, A or P. 3. What is category? How to determine a word's category? Category refers to a group of linguistic items which fulfill the same or similar functions in a particular language such as a sentence, a noun phrase or a verb. To determine a word's category, three criteria are usually employed, namely meaning, inflection and distribution. 若详细回答，则要加上： Word categories often bear some relationship with its meaning. The meanings associated with nouns and verbs can be elaborated in various ways. The property or attribute of the entities denoted by nouns can be elaborated by adjectives. For example, when we say that pretty lady, we are attributing the property ‘pretty’ to the lady designated by the noun. Similarly, the propertie s and attributes of the actions, sensations and states designated by verbs can typically be denoted by adverbs. For example, in Jenny left quietly the adverb quietly indicates the manner of Jenny's leaving. The second criterion to determine a word's category is inflection. Words of different categories take different inflections. Such nouns as boy and desk take the plural affix -s. Verbs such as work and help take past tense affix -ed and progressive affix -ing. And adjectives like quiet and clever take comparative affix -er and superlative affix -est. Although inflection is very helpful in determining a word's category, it does not always suffice. Some words do not take inflections. For example, nouns like moisture, fog, do not usually take plural suffix -s and adjectives like frequent, intelligent do not take comparative and superlative affixes -er and -est. The last and more reliable criterion of determining a word's category is its distribution. That is what type of elements can co-occur with a certain word. For example, nouns can typically appear with a determiner like the girl and a card, verbs with an auxiliary such as should stay and will go, and
