《语言学概论》课程教学大纲一、课程基本信息1.课程编码:U16M121742.课程名称(中文):语言学概论课程名称(英文):Introduction to Linguistics 3.学时/学分:32学时/2学分4.先修课程:无5.开课单位:外国语学院6.开课学期(春/秋/春、秋):秋季7、课程模块:8、课程类别:专业核心课程9、教材及教学参考书:《新编简明英语语言学教程》戴炜栋、何兆熊,2010二、教学目的和任务本课程属于语言学课程的基础部分,共分为两大部分:理论语言学(语音学、音系学、形态学、句法学及语义学)和语言学应用(应用语言学、社会语言学、心理语言学、计算语言学等)。

本课程的目的是在学生经过三年的学习,已经掌握了必要的外语语言知识后,在理论上提供初步的语言学知识,并且为有志于继续攻读语言学或与之有关的硕士学位的学生打下必要的基础。

通过该门课程的学习,期望学生能掌握语言学理论的基本知识,提高学生的语言学素质,提高科研能力和分析能力,掌握语言学理论在交叉学科上的应用。

三、教学内容、基本要求及学时分配《语言学概论》语言学概论的教学内容分为八部分,对不同的内容提出不同的教学要求。

(数字表示供参考的相应的学时数)第一章概论(4学时)1.什么是语言学?(2学时)2.什么是语言?(2学时)要求:掌握语言学和语言的基本定义,尤其是对语言的识别特征的深入理解和融会贯通。

第二章音位学(4学时)1.语音学(2学时)2.音位学(2学时)语音学与音位学都涉及到语音的同一个方面——语音。

但是,虽然两者都与语音的研究相关,但他们在观念和着重点上存在着差异。

语音学是有其一般性质的;它对所有人类语言中的所有语音都感兴趣;它们是如何产生的,它们是如何彼此相区别的,它们具有什么语音特征,如何对它们进行分类,等等。

音位学的目的是去发现一门语言中的语音是如何形成模式的,这些语音是如何在语言交际中用来传达意义的。

要求:掌握语音学和音位学的基本概念和理论知识。

(支撑教学目标1、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时教学内容1.The nature of language2.Distinctions between important concept pairs in linguistic study. 思考题:Language is something that we tend to take for granted; something with which we are familiar from childhood in a practical, unreflecting manner. This practical familiarity with language tends to stand in the way of its objective examination. There are all sorts of social, cultural, and nationalistic pr ejudices associated with the layman’s view of language and of particular languages. Look at the people around you and see whether they have some innate prejudices with regard to language(s). If yes, what are they?第二章Phonetics (支撑教学目标2、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时1.教学内容Speech organs2.Consonants and vowels思考题:With the exception of some remarkable individuals, adult learners do not often achieve native-like competence in the second language, especially with respect to pronunciation. Randomly select some of your classmates coming from different provinces and see whether there is any association between their English pronunciations and that of their dialects.第三章Phonology(支撑教学目标2、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时教学内容1.Important concepts in phonology2.Identifying phonemes3.Sequence of phonemes4.Co-articulation effects5.Supra-segmental features思考题:In a study comparing the tone choice (the rising tone, the falling tone, and the rising-falling tone, etc.) in second language parallel teaching presentations (naturally occurring) given by 6 Chinese and 6 North American male teaching assistants (TAs), Pickering (2004) found that the native-English-speaking TAs systematically exploited their tone choices to increase the accessibility of the lecture materials and establish rapport with their students. Conversely, the typical tonal composition of the Chinese TAs’ presentations made the information structure unclear and frequently characterized these speakers as unsympathetic and uninvolved. Randomly select two video lectures, one by a native speaker of English and the other by a Chinese EFL speaker of English, and see how the two speakers differ with regard to the tone choices.第四章Morphology (支撑教学目标2、5、6)课时:2周,共4课时教学内容1.What is morphology2.Morpheme3.Classifications of morphemes4.Morpheme, morph, allomorph5.Empty morph and zero morph6.Morphemic analysis7.The role of morphology in English思考题:The Watergate Scandal began with the arrest of five men for secretly entering the DemocraticNational Committee headquarters at the Watergate Office complex in Washington, D.C. on June 17, 1972. Investigations conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) revealed that this burglary was one of many illegal activities authorized and carried out by Nixon's staff. Since the revelation of this scandal, the suffix -gate has often been associated with political scandals involving abuse of power, bribery, and obstruction of justice. It is sometimes even used when talking about pornographic scandals. Search on the Internet and see how many gate-related words you can come up with and then probe into the stories behind each of them.第五章Syntax(支撑教学目标2、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时教学内容1.Structural description of sentences2.Generation of sentences思考题:Generally speaking, the English language develops in the right-branching direction, i.e., the modifying clause typically appears to the right of the head noun; while the Chinese language develops in the left-branching direction, i.e. the modifying clause typically appears to the left of the head noun. Randomly select two pieces of writing from a Chinese newspaper (e.g. The Xinhua News Daily) and an English newspaper (e.g. The New York Times), and see how the development of the typical sentence structure differs in the two languages.第六章Semantics(支撑教学目标2、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时教学内容1.What is semantics?2.Lexical semantics3.Sentence semantics思考题:Collocations are ‘ready-made chunks,’ which can be stored and retrieved directly and immediately from our mental lexicon. In fact, about 70% of what we say, hear, read, and write is in some form of fixed expression. Randomly select a Chinese newspaper (e.g. The Xinhua News Daily) and an English newspaper (e.g. The New York Times), and pick up one particular column, such as sports, or stock market. Spot and calculate the collocations used and see whether there are similarities and differences between English and Chinese in terms of features (e.g. free collocation, restricted collocation, and figurative idioms) as well as structures (e.g. Adjective + Noun, Verb + Noun, and Verb + Preposition) of the collocations used. If yes, what are they?第七章General principles of communication(支撑教学目标3、5、6)课时:2周,共4课时教学内容1.The cooperative principle2.The politeness principle3.The principle of relevance思考题:Record a piece of ordinary conversation in a setting of your choice. Make a simple transcription and describe the compliance with and disregarding of the maxims of Cooperative Principle that the conversation involves.第八章Intercultural communication(支撑教学目标3、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时教学内容1.Important conceptsnguage and culture3.Diverse intercultural communication patterns4.Potential problems in intercultural communication思考题:As students, you have probably learned English for many years, during which you may have had a number of different foreigner teachers, or you may have had some travels in some English-speaking countries. Recall your past experiences with different foreigners or foreigner teachers and see what kind of cultural differences there are between your culture and that of your foreigner teachers.第九章Language variety(支撑教学目标3、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时教学内容nguage-dialect-regional dialect-social dialect2.Lingua franca-pidgin-creole3.Style-genre-taboo-euphemism4.Gender and language use思考题:Where did you spend the greatest part of your childhood? State some of the ways in which the speech of that region differs from what you would consider Mandarin Chinese.第十章Major issues in SLA(支撑教学目标4、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时教学内容1.Contrastive analysis hypothesis2.Error analysis3.The inter-language hypothesis4.The monitor model5.The output hypothesis6.The open-choice principle and the idiom principle思考题:Record and transcribe a piece of ordinary English conversation in a high school setting; identify the errors and mistakes and then interview the students who made them; and finally see what kind of inter-language rules you can infer regarding the Chinese s tudents’ learning of English as a foreign language.第十一章Factors affecting second language learning (支撑教学目标4、5、6)课时:2周,共4课时教学内容1.Factors not easily modified by learners2.Factors easily modified by learners思考题:Randomly select a good student and a poor student, or rather, a high-achiever and an underachiever, in your class, and see how they differ in terms of the strategies employed in theirlearning of English.第十二章Developing an intercultural communicative competence (支撑教学目标4、5、6)课时:1周,共2课时教学内容1. A brief review of current models of second language competence2.Why are current models inadequate?3. A model of intercultural competence4.Intercultural competence in communicative language use思考题:Record, with permission, a short conference involving a decision-making among executives in a joint venture where the participants are from different language backgrounds but English is used the only working language, and see whose cultural rules dominate and why.三、教学方法本课程遵循传授语言学基本理论知识与培养语言运用和研究能力相结合的教学原则。

自考英语语言学概论大纲考核章节精华中文版教材

第一章语言(Language)●本章主要考点●课文理解与重点内容分析:本章介绍语言的基本知识,包括语言的定义、语言的识别性特征和语言的功能。

1. 语言的定义语言是用于人类交际的任意性的发音的符号系统。

该定义有五个要点,即系统、任意性的、发音/声的、系统、用于人类交际。

2. 语言的识别性特征语言的识别性特征指人类语言区别于任何其他动物交流系统的特点。

主要包括:1)能产性:能产性也称创造性,人们能用语言创造新的意义,并立即被从未接触过它的人所理解。

创造性归因于语言的二重性和递归性。

2)离散性:3)不受时空限制的属性/位移性:人类语言可以让使用者表达说话时(时间和处所)并不存在的物体、事件和观点。

这一特性赋予人们概括和抽象的能力。

4)任意性:任意性是语言的核心特征,指符号的形式或声音与意义间没有理据或逻辑关系。

任意性有不同的程度。

5)文化传递性:语言不是靠遗传,而是通过教与学,由人们接触的文化代代传递的。

6)结构二重性:二重性指底层有限的语音结构是上层词、句和语篇结构的组成成分,每层都有自身的组合规则,使语言拥有强大的能产性。

7)互换性:互换性指人可以是信息的发出者,也可以是信息的接收者。

3. 语言的功能按照韩礼德的表述,幼儿语言有如下七个功能:1)工具功能:说话人可以使用语言做事情。

2)调节功能:语言可用来控制事件。

3)表现功能:语言可用来传达知识、汇报事件、进行陈述、说明、解释关系、传递信息等。

4)互动功能:语言可用来与周围的人进行交际。

5)自指性功能:语言可以用来表达个人的情感并展示个性。

6)启发功能:使用语言可以获得知识、了解世界。

语言可以用于学习,语言可以用于问答、用于争辩,用于验证假设、推导结论和新奇发现。

7)想象功能:语言用于创造想象系统,可以是文学作品、哲学领域里,也可以是空想、白日做梦和发呆遐想。

成人语言有三大元功能:人际功能、概念功能和语篇功能。

国内著名学者胡壮麟等人在其《语言学教程》中,用如下词语来表达语言的七大功能:1)信息功能:被认为是语言最主要的功能。

Chapter 1 Language语言1. Design feature (识别特征) refers to the defining properties of human language that distinguish it from any animal system of communication.2. Productivity(能产性) refers to the ability that people have in making and comprehending indefinitely large quantities of sentences in theirnative language.3. arbitrariness (任意性) Arbitrariness refers to the phenomenon that there is no motivated relationship between a linguistic form and itsmeaning.4. symbol (符号) Symbol refers to something such as an object, word, or sound that represents something else by association or convention.5. discreteness (离散性) Discreteness refers to the phenomenon that the sounds in a language are meaningfully distinct.6. displacement (不受时空限制的特性) Displacement refers to the fact that human language can be used to talk about things that are not in theimmediate situations of its users.7. duality of structure (结构二重性) The organization of language into two levels, one of sounds, the other of meaning, is known as duality ofstructure.8. culture transmission (文化传播) Culture transmission refers to the fact that language is passed on from one generation to the next throughteaching and learning, rather than by inheritance.9. interchangeability (互换性) Interchangeability means that any human being can be both a producer and a receiver of messages.1. ★What is language?Language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication. This definition has captured the main features of language.First, language is a system.Second, language is arbitrary in the sense.The third feature of language is symbolic nature.2. ★What are the design features of language?Language has seven design features as following:1) Productivity.2) Discreteness.3) Displacement4) Arbitrariness.5) Cultural transmission6) Duality of structure.7) Interchangeability.3. Why do we say language is a system?Because elements of language are combined according to rules, and every language contains a set of rules. By system, the recurring patterns or arrangements or the particular ways or designs in which a language operates. And the sounds, the words and the sentences are used in fixed patterns that speaker of a language can understand each other.4. ★ (Function of language.) According to Halliday, what are the initial functions of children’s language? And what are the threefunctional components of adult language?I. Halliday uses the following terms to refer to the initial functions of children’s language:1) Instrumental function. 工具功能2) Regulatory function. 调节功能3) Representational function. 表现功能4) Interactional function. 互动功能5) Personal function. 自指性功能6) Heuristic function. 启发功能[osbQtq`kf`h]7) Imaginative function. 想象功能II. Adult language has three functional components as following:1) Interpersonal components. 人际2) Ideational components.概念3) Textual components.语篇1. general linguistics and descriptive linguistics (普通语言学与描写语言学) The former deals with language in general whereas the latter isconcerned with one particular language.2. synchronic linguistics and diachronic linguistics (共时语言学与历时语言学) Diachronic linguistics traces the historical development of thelanguage and records the changes that have taken place in it between successive points in time. And synchronic linguistics presents an account of language as it is at some particular point in time.3. theoretical linguistics and applied linguistics (理论语言学与应用语言学) The former copes with languages with a view to establishing atheory of their structures and functions whereas the latter is concerned with the application of the concepts and findings of linguistics to all sorts of practical tasks.4. microlinguistics and macrolinguistics(微观语言学与宏观语言学) The former studies only the structure of language system whereas thelatter deals with everything that is related to languages.5. langue and parole (语言与言语) The former refers to the abstract linguistics system shared by all the members of a speech communitywhereas the latter refers to the concrete act of speaking in actual situation by an individual speaker.6. competence and performance (语言能力与语言运用) The former is one’s knowledge of all the linguistic regulation systems whereas the latteris the use of language in concrete situation.7. speech and writing (口头语与书面语) Speech is the spoken form of language whereas writing is written codes, gives language new scope.8. linguistics behavior potential and actual linguistic behavior (语言行为潜势与实际语言行为) People actually says on a certain occasion to acertain person is actual linguistics behavior. And each of possible linguistic items that he could have said is linguistic behavior potential.9. syntagmatic relation and paradigmatic relation(横组合关系与纵聚合关系) The former describes the horizontal dimension of a languagewhile the latter describes the vertical dimension of a language.10. verbal communication and non-verbal communication(言语交际与非言语交际) Usual use of language as a means of transmittinginformation is called verbal communication. The ways we convey meaning without using language is called non-verbal communication.1. ★How does John Lyons classify linguistics?According to John Lyons, the field of linguistics as a whole can be divided into several subfields as following:1) General linguistics and descriptive linguistics.2) Synchronic linguistics and diachronic linguistics.3) Theoretical linguistics and applied linguistics.4) Microlinguistics and macrolinguistics.2. Explain the three principles by which the linguist is guided: consistency, adequacy and simplicity.1) Consistency means that there should be no contradictions between different parts of the theory and the description.2) Adequacy means that the theory must be broad enough in scope to offer significant generalizations.3) Simplicity requires us to be as brief and economic as possible.3. ★What are the sub-branches of linguistics within the language system?Within the language system there are six sub-branches as following:1) Phonetics. 语音学is a study of speech sounds of all human languages.2) Phonology. 音位学studies about the sounds and sound patterns of a speaker’s native language.3) Morphology. 形态学studies about how a word is formed.4) Syntax. 句法学studies about whether a sentence is grammatical or not.5) Semantics. 语义学studies about the meaning of language, including meaning of words and meaning of sentences.6) Pragmatics. 语用学★The scope of language: Linguistics is referred to as a scientific study of language.★The scientific process of linguistic study: It involves four stages: collecting data, forming a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis and drawing conclusions.1. articulatory phonetics(发音语音学) The study of how speech organs produce the sounds is called articulatory phonetics.2. acoustic phonetics (声学语音学) The study of the physical properties and of the transmission of speech sounds is called acoustic phonetics.3. auditory phonetics (听觉语音学) The study of the way hearers perceive speech sounds is called auditory phonetics.4. consonant (辅音) Consonant is a speech sound where the air form the language is either completely blocked, or partially blocked, or where theopening between the speech organs is so narrow that the air escapes with audible friction.5. vowel (元音) is defined as a speech sound in which the air from the lungs is not blocked in any way and is pronounced with vocal-cord vibration.6. bilabials (双唇音) Bilabials means that consonants for which the flow of air is stopped or restricted by the two lips. [p][b] [m] [w]7. affricates (塞擦音) The sound produced by stopping the airstream and then immediately releasing it slowly is called affricates. [t X] [d Y] [tr] [dr]8. glottis (声门) Glottis is the space between the vocal cords.9. rounded vowel (圆唇元音) Rounded vowel is defined as the vowel sound pronounced by the lips forming a circular opening. [u:] [u] [OB] [O]10. diphthongs (双元音) Diphthongs are produced by moving from one vowel position to another through intervening positions.[ei][ai][O i] [Q u][au]11. triphthongs(三合元音) Triphthongs are those which are produced by moving from one vowel position to another and then rapidly andcontinuously to a third one. [ei Q][ai Q][O i Q] [Q u Q][au Q]12. lax vowels (松元音) According to distinction of long and short vowels, vowels are classified tense vowels and lax vowels. All the long vowelsare tense vowels but of the short vowels,[e] is a tense vowel as well, and the rest short vowels are lax vowels.1. ★How are consonants classified in terms of different criteria?The consonants in English can be described in terms of four dimensions.1) The position of the soft palate.2) The presence or the absence of vocal-cord vibration.3) The place of articulation.4) The manner of articulation.2. ★How are vowels classified in terms of different criteria?Vowel sounds are differentiated by a number of factors.1) The state of the velum2) The position of the tongue.3) The openness of the mouth.4) The shape of the lips.5) The length of the vowels.6) The tension of the muscles at pharynx.3. ★What are the three sub-branches of phonetics? How do they differ from each other?Phonetics has three sub-branches as following:1) Articulatory phonetics is the study of how speech organs produce the sounds is called articulatory phonetics.2) Acoustic phonetics is the study of the physical properties and of the transmission of speech sounds is called acoustic phonetics.3) Auditory phonetics is the study of the way hearers perceive speech sounds is called auditory phonetics.4. ★What are the commonly used phonetic features for consonants and vowels respectively?I. The frequently used phonetic features for consonants include the following:1) Voiced.2) Nasal.3) Consonantal.4) Vocalic.5) Continuant.6) Anterior.7) Coronal.8) Aspirated.II. The most common phonetic features for vowels include the following:1) High.2) Low.3) Front.4) Back.5) Rounded.6) Tense.1. phonemes (音位) Phonemes are minimal distinctive units in the sound system of a language.2. allophones (音位变体) Allophones are the phonetic variants and realizations of a particular phoneme.3. phones (单音) The smallest identifiable phonetic unit found in a stream of speech is called a phone.4. minimal pair (最小对立体) Minimal pair means words which differ from each other only by one sound.5. contrastive distribution (对比分布) If two or more sounds can occur in the same environment and the substitution of one sound for anotherbrings about a change of meaning, they are said to be in contrastive distribution.6. complementary distribution(互补分布) If two or more sounds never appear in the same environment ,then they are said to be incomplementary distribution.7. free variation (自由变异) When two sounds can appear in the same environment and the substitution of one for the other does not cause anychange in meaning, then they are said to be in free variation.8. distinctive features (区别性特征) A distinctive feature is a feature which distinguishes one phoneme from another.9. suprasegmental features (超切分特征) The distinctive (phonological) features which apply to groups larger than the single segment are knownas suprasegmental features.10. tone languages (声调语言) Tone languages are those which use pitch to contrast meaning at word level.11. intonation languages (语调语言) Intonation languages are those which use pitch to distinguish meaning at phrase level or sentence level.12. juncture (连音) Juncture refers to the phonetic boundary features which may demarcate grammatical units.1. ★What are the differences between English phonetics and English phonology?1) Phonetics is the study of the production, perception, and physical properties of speech sounds, while phonology attempts to account forhow they are combined, organized, and convey meaning in particular languages.2) Phonetics is the study of the actual sounds while phonology is concerned with a more abstract description of speech sounds and tries todescribe the regularities of sound patterns.2. Give examples to illustrate the relationship between phonemes, phones and allophones.When we hear [pit],[tip],[spit],etc, the similar phones we have heard are /p/. And /p/ and /b/ are separate phonemes in English, while [ph] and [p] are allophones.3. How can we decide a minimal pair or a minimal set?A minimal pair should meet three conditions:1) The two forms are different in meaning.2) The two forms are different in one sound segment.3) The different sounds occur in the same position of the two strings.4. ★Use examples to explain the three types of distribution.1) Contrastive distribution. Sounds [m] in met and [n] in net are in contrastive distribution because substituting [m] for [n] will result in achange of meaning.2) Complementary distribution. The aspirated plosive [ph] and the unaspirated plosive [p] are in complementary distribution because theformer occurs either initially in a word or initially in a stressed syllable while the latter never occurs in such environments.3) Free variation. In English, the word “direct” may be pronounce in two ways: /di’rekt/ and /dia’rekt/, and the two different sounds /i/ and /ai/can be said to be in free variation.5. What’s the difference between segmental features and suprasegmental features? What are the suprasegmental features in English?I. 1) Distinctive features, which are used to distinguish one phoneme from another and thus have effect on one sound segment, are referred toas segmental features.2) The distinctive (phonological) features which apply to groups larger than the single segment are known as suprasegmental features.3) Suprasegmental features may have effect on more than one sound segment. They may apply to a string of several sounds.II.The main suprasegmental features include stress, tone, intonation and juncture.6. What’s the difference between tone languages and intonation language?Tone languages are those which use pitch to contrast meaning at word level while intonation languages are those which use pitch to distinguish meaning at phrase level or sentence level7. ★What’s the difference between phonetic transcriptions and phonemic transcriptions?The former was meant to symbolize all possible speech sounds, including even the most minute shades of pronunciation, while the latter was intended to indicate only those sounds capable of distinguishing one word from another in a given language.1. morphemes (语素) Morphemes are the minimal meaningful units in the grammatical system of a language.allomorphs (语素变体) Allomorphs are the realizations of a particular morpheme.morphs (形素) Morphs are the realizations of morphemes in general and are the actual forms used to realize morphemes.2. roots (词根) Roots is defined as the most important part of a word that carries the principal meaning.affixes (词缀) Affixes are morphemes that lexically depend on roots and do not convey the fundamental meaning of words.free morphemes (自由语素) Free morphemes are those which can exist as individual words.bound morphemes (粘着语素) Bound morphemes are those which cannot occur on their own as separate words.3. inflectional affixes (屈折词缀) refer to affixes that serve to indicate grammatical relations, but do not change its part of speech.derivational affixes (派生词缀) refer to affixes that are added to words in order to change its grammatical category or its meaning.4. empty morph (空语子) Empty morph means a morph which has form but no meaning.zero morph (零语子) Zero morph refers to a morph which has meaning but no form.5.

How are morphemes classified?1) Semantically speaking, morphemes are grouped into two categories: root morphemes and affixational morphemes.2) Structurally speaking, they are divided into two types: free morphemes and bound morphemes.3. ★Explain the interrelations between semantic and structural classifications of morphemes.a) All free morphemes are roots but not all roots are free morphemes.b) All affixes are bound morphemes, but not all bound morphemes are affixes.4. What’s the difference between an empty morph and a zero mor ph?a) Empty morph means a morph that has form but no meaning.b) Zero morph refers to a morph that has meaning but no form.5. Explain the differences between inflectional and derivational affixes in term of both function and position.a) Functionally:i.Inflectional affixes sever to mark grammatical relations and never create new words while derivational affixes can create new words.ii.Inflectional affixes do not cause a change in grammatical class while derivational affixes very often but not always cause a change in grammatical class.b) In term of position:i.Inflectional affixes are suffixes while derivational affixes can be suffixes or prefixes.ii.Inflectional affixes are always after derivational affixes if both are present. And derivational affixes are always before inflectional suffixes if both are present.6. What are morphological rules? Give at least four rules with examples.The principles that determine how morphemes are combined into new words are said to be morphological rules.For example:a) un- + adj. ->adj.b) Adj./n. + -ify ->v.c) V. + -able -> adj.d) Adj. + -ly -> adv.1. syntagmatic relations (横组关系) refer to the relationships between constituents in a construction.paradigmatic relations (纵聚合关系) refer to the relations between the linguistic elements within a sentence and those outside the sentence.hierarchical relations (等级关系) refer to relationships between any classification of linguistic units which recognizes a series of successively subordinate levels.2. IC Analysis (直接成分分析) is a kind of grammatical analysis, which make major divisions at any level within a syntactic construction.labeled IC Analysis(标记法直接成分分析) is a kind of grammatical analysis, which make major divisions at any level within a syntactic construction and label each constituent.phrase markers (短语标记法) is a kind of grammatical analysis, which make major divisions at any level within a syntactic construction, and label each constituent while remove all the linguistic forms.labeled bracketing (方括号标记法) is a kind of grammatical analysis, which is applied in representing the hierarchical structure of sentences by using brackets.3. constituency (成分关系)dependency (依存关系)4. surface structures (表层结构)refers to the mental representation of a linguistic expression, derived from deep structure by transformationalrules.deep structures (深层结构) deep structure of a linguistic expression is a theoretical construct that seeks to unify several related structures. 5. phrase structure rules (短语结构规则)are a way to describe a given language's syntax. They are used to break a natural language sentencedown into its constituent parts.6. transformational rules (转换规则)7. structural ambiguity (结构歧义)1. What are the differences between surface structure and deep structure?They are different from each other in four aspects:1) Surface structures correspond directly to the linear arrangements of sentences while deep structures correspond to the meaningful groupingof sentences.2) Surface structures are more concrete while deep structures are more abstract.3) Surface structures give the forms of sentences whereas deep structures give the meanings of sentences.4) Surface structures are pronounceable but deep structures are not.2. Illustrate the differences between PS rules and T-rules.1) PS rules frequently applied in generating deep structures.2) T-rules are used to transform deep structure into surface structures.3. What’s the order of generating sentences? Do we st art with surface structures or with deep structures? How differently are theygenerated?To generate a sentence, we always start with its deep structure, and then transform it into its corresponding surface structure.Deep structures are generated by phrase structure rules (PS rules) while surface structures are derived from their deep structures by transformational rules (T-rules).4. What’s the difference between a compulsory constituent and an optional one?Optional constituents may be present or absent while compulsory constituents must be present.5. What are the three syntactic relations? Illustrate them with examples.1) Syntagmatic relations2) Paradigmatic relations.3) Hierarchical relations.1. Lexical semantics (词汇语义学) is defined as the study of word meaning in language.2. Sense (意义) refers to the inherent meaning of the linguistic form.3. Reference (所指) means what a linguistic form refers to in the real world.4. Concept (概念) is the result of human cognition, reflecting the objective world in the human mind.5. Denotation (外延) is defined as the constant ,abstract, and basic meaning of a linguistic expression independent of context and situation.6. Connotation (内涵) refers to the emotional associations which are suggested by, or are part of the meaning of, a linguistic unit.7. Componential analysis (成分分析法) is the way to decompose the meaning of a word into its components.8. Semantic field (语义场) The vocabulary of a language is not simply a listing of independent items, but is organized into areas, within whichwords interrelate and define each other in various ways. The areas are semantic fields.9. Hyponymy (上下义关系) refers to the sense relation between a more general, more inclusive word and a more specific word.10. Synonymy (同义关系) refers to the sameness or close similarity of meaning.11. Antonymy (反义关系) refers to the oppositeness of meaning.12. Lexical ambiguity (词汇歧义)13. Polysemy (多义性) refers to the fact that the same one word may have more than one meaning.14. Homonymy (同音(同形)异义关系) refers to the phenomenon that words having different meanings have the same form.15. Sentence semantics (句子语义学) refers to the study of sentence meaning in language.1. What’s the criterion of John Lyons in classifying semantics into its sub-branches? And how does he classify semantics?In terms of whether it falls within the scope of linguistics, John Lyons distinguishes between linguistic semantics and non-linguistic semantics.According John Lyons, semantics is one of the sub-branches of linguistics; it is generally defined as the study of meaning.2. What are the essential factors for determining sentence meaning?1) Object, 2) concept, 3) symbol, 4) user, 5) context.3. What is the difference between the theory of componential analysis and the theory of semantic theory in defining meaning of words?4. What are the sense relations between sentences?1) S1 is synonymous with S2.2) S1 entails S2.3) S1 contradicts S2.4) S1 presupposes S2.5) S1 is a tautology, and therefore invariably true.6) S1 is a contradiction, and therefore invariably false.7) S1 is semantically anomalous.1.

Introduction to Linguistics for Students of English is a compulsory course, providing the students of English majors with some basic theories and specialized knowledge in linguistics. The course, starting from Saussure’s language views, introduces the important research achievements in the scope of linguistics, important distinctions in linguistics, definition of language, design features of language and functions of language. The important points of this course lie in the description of sound system, structure system and meaning system, namely, the core branches of linguistics: phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics from perspectives of structuralism, generative grammar. Meanwhile, Marxist language view will be used to evaluate some linguistic theories and approaches. After the study of the course, the students will learn the basic concepts and theories in linguistics and methods for linguistic researches. They are expected to be able to apply the linguistic concepts and theories to analyze and explain language phenomena.三、课程性质与教学目的《语言学概论(英)》课程是为英语专业本科生开设的英语专业必修课之一。

一、课程性质及其设置目的与要求(一)课程性质和特点《英语语言学概论》课程是我省高等教育自学考试英语专业(本科段)的一门重要的专业理论课程,其任务是培养应考者系统地学习英语语言学的基本知识,掌握语言系统内部语言学各分支之间的关系和各分支的重要概念和基本理论,了解语言学在其它学科领域的应用,熟悉现代语言学重要的流派及其代表人物;通过该课程的学习,考生可以从不同的角度了解语言(的性质),了解语言学习和语言教学,为日后进一步学习语言学、从事语言教学实践和语言学研究打下扎实基础。

本课程的特点是:专业术语多,概念多,内容抽象,所以,考生最好在学习本课程之前先学习提高语言读写能力的课程,如高级英语、泛读(三)、写作等,这样可以减少语言障碍,有利于学好语言学的理论知识。

(二)本课程的基本要求本课程共分为本书共分四编,计十三章。

第一编(一至二章)介绍了语言和语言学;第二编(三至八章)介绍了语言学的主要分支—语音学、音位学、形态学、句法学、语义学和语用学;第三编(九至十二章)为跨学科领域与应用—话语分析、社会语言学、心理语言学,以及语言学理论与外语教学;第四编(十三章)介绍了现代语言学流派。

通过对本书的学习,要求应考者对英语语言学有一个全面和正确的了解。

具体应达到以下要求:1、掌握语言的性质、功能,以及语言学的研究范围、语言学的分支和重要的语言学概念;2、掌握语言系统内部语言学各分支之间的关系和各分支的重要概念和基本理论;3、了解语言学在其它学科领域的应用;4、熟悉现代语言学重要的流派及其代表人物。

(三)本课程与相关课程的联系英语语言学概论是一门基础理论课程,其含盖范围很广,既涉及语言系统内部的语音学、音位学、形态学、句法学、语义学和语用学,又涉及许多交叉学科,如话语分析、社会语言学、心理语言学、应用语用学(包括语言学理论与外语教学),以及本教程未涉及的神经认知语言学、计算机语言学、人工智能与机器翻译等。

语言学的进一步研究甚至会涉及到哲学、逻辑学等领域。

在自考课程中,词汇学与语言学关系最为密切,词汇学的许多概念、理论和研究方法都来源于语言学。

高级英语、泛读(三)、写作、翻译等课程则是学好语言学的基础。

文学与语言学并非对立的关系,这两个领域的研究方法可以互相补充、互相借鉴,日后无论从事语言学还是文学研究,这两个领域都必须同时涉猎。
