LINGUISTICS A COURSE BOOK Define the following terms:1. design feature: are features that define our human languages, such as arbitrariness, duality, creativity, displacement, cultural transmission, etc.2. function: the use of language to communicate, to think ,etc. Language functions inclucle informative function, interpersonal function, performative function, interpersonal function, performative function, emotive function, phatic communion, recreational function and metalingual function.3. etic: a term in contrast with emic which originates from American linguist Pike’s distinction of phonetics and phonemics. Being etic mans making far too many, as well as behaviously inconsequential, differentiations, just as was ofter the case with phonetic vx. phonemic analysis in linguistics proper.4. emic: a term in contrast with etic which originates from American linguist Pike’s distinction of phonetics and phonemics. An emic set of speech acts and events must be one that is validated as meaningful via final resource to the native members of a speech community rather than via appeal to the investigator’s ingenuity or intuition alone.5. synchronic: a kind of description which takes a fixed instant(usually, but not necessarily, the present),as its point of observation. Most grammars are of this kind.6. diachronic: study of a language is carried through the course of its history.7. prescriptive: the study of a language is carried through the course of its history.8. prescriptive: a kind of linguistic study in which things are prescribed how ought to be, i.e. laying down rules for language use.9. descriptive: a kind of linguistic study in which things are just described.10. arbitrariness: one design feature of human language, which refers to the face that the forms of linguistic signs bear no natural relationship to their meaning.11. duality: one design feature of human language, which refers to the property of having two levels of are composed of elements of the secondary. level and each of the two levels has its own principles of organization.12. displacement: one design feature of humanlanguage, which means human language enable their users to symbolize objects, events and concepts which are not present c in time and space, at the moment of communication.13. phatic communion: one function of human language, which refers to the social interaction of language.14. metalanguage: certain kinds of linguistic signs or terms for the analysis and description of particular studies.15. macrolinguistics: he interacting study between language and language-related disciplines such as psychology, sociology, ethnography, science of law and artificial intelligence etc. Branches of macrolinguistics include psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, anthropological linguistics, etc. 16. competence: language user’s underlying knowledge about the system of rules.17. performance: the actual use of language in concrete situation.18. langue: the linguistic competence of the speaker.19. parole: the actual phenomena or data of linguistics (utterances).20.

Coarticulation can be further divided into anticipatory coarticulation and perseverative coarticulation.22. V oicing: pronouncing a sound (usually a vowel ora voiced consonant) by vibrating the vocal cords.23. Broad and narrow transcription: the use of a simple set of symbols in transcription is called broad transcription; the use of a simple set of symbols in transcription is called broad transcription; while, the use of more specific symbols to show more phonetic detail is referred to as narrow transcription.24.

Phoneme: the abstract element of sound, identified as being distinctive in a particular language.26. Allophone: any of the different forms of a phoneme(e.g. <th>is an allophone of /t/in English. When /t/occurs in words like step, it is unaspirated <t>.Both <th> and <t> are allophones of thephoneme /t/.27. V owel: are sound segments produced without such obstruction, so no turbulence of a total stopping of the air can be perceived.28. Manner of articulation; in the production of consonants, manner of articulation refers to the actual relationship between the articulators and thus the way in which the air passes through certain parts of the vocal tract.29. Place of articulation: in the production of consonants, place of articulation refers to where in the vocal tract there is approximation, narrowing, or the obstruction of air.30.

The principle suprasegmental features are syllable, stress, tone, and intonation.35. morpheme: the smallest unit of language in terms of relationship between expression and content, a unit that cannot be divided into further small units without destroying or drastically altering the meaning, whether it is lexical or grammatical. 36. compound only morphemic words which consist wholly of free morphemes, such as classroom, blackboard, snow-white, etc.37. inflection: the manifestation of grammatical relationship through the addition of inflectional affixes, such as number, person, finiteness, aspect and case, which do not change the grammatical class of the stems to which they are attached.38. affix: the collective term for the type of formative that can be used only when added to another morpheme(the root or stem).39. derivation: different from compounds, derivation shows the relation between roots and affixes.40. root: the base from of a word that cannot further be analyzed without total lass of identity.41. allomorph: any of the different form of a morpheme. For example, in English the plural morpheme is but it is pronounced differently in different environments as /s/in cats, as /z/ in dogs and as/iz/ in classes. So /s/, /z/, and /iz/ are all allomorphs of the plural morpheme.42 Stem: any morpheme or combination of morphemes to which an inflectional affix can be added.43. bound morpheme: an element of meaning which is structurally dependent on the world it is added to,e.g. the plural morpheme in “dog’s”.44. free morpheme: an element of meaning which takes the form of an independent word.45. lexeme: A separate unit of meaning, usually in the form of a word(e.g. “dog in the manger”)46. lexicon: a list of all the words in a language assigned to various lexical categories and provided with semantic interpretation.47. grammatical word: word expressing grammatical meanings, such conjunction, prepositions, articles and pronouns.48. lexical word: word having lexical meanings, that is ,those which refer to substance, action and quality, such as nouns, verbs, adjectives, and verbs.49. open-class: a word whose membership is in principle infinite or unlimited, such as nouns, verbs, adjectives, and many adverbs.50. blending: a relatively complex form of compounding, in which two words are blended by joining the initial part of the first word and the final part of the second word, or by joining the initial parts of the two words.51. loanword: a process in which both form and meaning are borrowed with only a slight adaptation, in some cases, to eh phonological system of the new language that they enter.52. loanblend: a process in which part of the form is native and part is borrowed, but the meaning is fully borrowed.53. leanshift: a process in which the meaning is borrowed, but the form is native.54. acronym: is made up form the first letters of thename of an organization, which has a heavily modified headword.55. loss: the disappearance of the very sound as a morpheme in the phonological system.56. back-formation: an abnormal type of word-formation where a shorter word is derived by deleting an imagined affix from a long form already in the language.57. assimilation: the change of a sound as a result of the influence of an adjacent sound, which is more specifically called. “contact” or “contiguous” assimilation.58. dissimilation: the influence exercised.

It is a property of propositions that they have truth values.109. psycholinguistics: is concerned primarily with investigating the psychological reality of linguistic structure. Psycholinguistics can be divided into cognitive psycholing uistics (being concerned above all with making inferences about the content of human mind, and experimental psycholinguistics (being concerned somehow whth empirical matters, such as speed of response to a particular word).110. psycholinguistic reality: the reality of grammar, etc. as a purported account of structures represented in the mind of a speaker. Often opposed, in discussion of the merits of alternative grammars, to criteria of simplicity, elegance, and internal consistency.111. schemata in text: packets of stored knowledge in language processing.112. story structure: the way in which various parts of story are arranged or organized.113. writing process: a series of actions or events that are part of a writing or continuing development. 114. communicative competence: a speaker’s knowledge of the total set of rules, conventions, etc. governing the skilled use of language in a society.

For example, she considered his unpunctuality.142. indirect thought: a kind of categories used by novelist to represent the thoughts of their characters are exactly as that used to present indirect speech. For example, she thought that he would be late.143. fee indirect speech: a further category which can occur, which is an amalgam of direct speech and indirect speech features.144. narrator’s representation of thought acts: a kind of the categories used by novelists to present the thoughts of their characters are exactly the same as those used to represent a speech e.g. He spent the day thinking.145. indirect thought: a kind of categories used by novelist to represent the thoughts of their characters are exactly as that used to present indirect speech. For example, she thought that he would be late.146. fee indirect speech: a further category which can occur, which is an amalgam of direct speech and indirect speech features.147. narrator’s representation of thought: the categories used by novelists to present the thoughts of their characters are exactly the same as those used to represent a speech e.g. He spent the day thinking.148. free indirect thought: the categories used by novelists to represent the thoughts of their characters are exactly the same as those used to represent a speech, e.g. He was bound to be late. 149. direct thought: categories used by novelists to represent the thoughts of their characters are exactly the same as those used to represent a speech..150. computer system: the machine itself together with a keyboard, printer, screen, disk drives, programs, etc.151. computer literacy: those people who have sufficient knowledge and skill in the use of computers and computer software.152. computer linguistics: a branch of applied linguistics, dealing with computer processing of human language.153.

When structures of the two languages are similar, we can get positive transfer of facilitation; when the two languages are different in structures, negative transfer ofinference occurs and result in errors.170. validity: the degree to which a test measures what it is meant to measure. There are four kinds of validity, i.e. content validity, construct validity, empirical validity, and face validity.171. reliability: can be defined as consistency. There are two kinds of reliability, i.e. stability reliability, and equivalence reliability.172. hypercorrection: overuse of a standard linguistic features, in terms of both frequency, i.e. overpassing the speakers of higher social status, and overshooting the target, i.e. extending the use of a form in linguistic environment where it is not expected to occur, For example, pronouncing ideas as[ai'dier],extending pronouncing post-vocalic[r] in an environment where it’s not supposed to occur.173. discrete point test: a kind of test in which language structures or skills are further divided into individual points of phonology, syntax and lexis.174. integrative test: a kind of test in which language structures or skills are further divided into individual points of phonology, syntax and lexis.。

一、名词解释1.Diachronic历时的It refers to say of the study of developing of language and languages over time.研究语言随时间发展变化的方法。
2.Arbitrariness任意性Saussure first refers to the fact that the forms of linguistic signs bear no natural relationship to their meaning.任意性是指语言符号的形式与所表达的意义之间没有天然或逻辑的联系。
It is refers to absence of any physical correspondence between linguistic signals and the entities to which they refer.任意性是指语言符号和这些符号所指的实体间不存在任何物质的联系。
3.Parole言语It refers to the concrete utterances of a speaker.指语言在实际使用中的实现。
4.Creativity创造性By creativity we mean language is resourceful because of its duality and its recursiveness, which enables human beings to produce and understand an infinitely large number of sentences including the sentences that were never heard before.创造性是指语言具有能产型,因为语言有双重性和递归性,也就是说话者能够结合各个语言单位形成无尽的句子,其中很多句子是以前没有的或者没有听说过的。

英汉缩略语对比缩略语(acronym)指由英文单词前面字母构成的新词,也可以叫做缩写语。
缩略语是一种常见的语言现象,在西方语言中,比如英语和法语中已经很普遍,而在汉语当中也有一些普遍的缩略语现象。
尽管现代汉语的缩略语数量相对较少,但是一些常见的缩略语可以作为通用词汇供不同领域使用。
其实,中国人在书面语中也有缩略语使用的现象,但与英语不同,英语缩略语很大程度上是企业文化、科技文化,或是研究领域文化带来的文化现象,而汉语的缩略语则往往是随着一种人的长期使用进行演变的。
英汉缩略语一般具有以下特点:1.语缩略语往往是一种新的、独特的形式,而汉语缩略语则基本上是根据英语的结构而形成的,具有英语缩略语相似的形式。
2.语缩略语往往带有一些专业的内涵,用来表达某种技术上或组织上的术语,而汉语缩略语往往带有一些常见的俗语或社会习语,用来表达一些社会现象甚至是某种情绪。
3.语缩略语往往是在特殊的情况下才用的一种英语术语,而汉语的缩略语则往往可以拿来用在各种不同的场景,比如在日常的口语当中,或是在学术或媒体文章当中。
对比英汉缩略语,我们可以发现,两者在语言使用上有许多不同,但其中也有许多共同点。
最明显的一点便是,无论是英语还是中文,缩略语都是使用最普遍的一种语言形式,可以更好地表达思想、意义和精神。
因此,英汉缩略语都可以作为通用语言普及,让更多的人们理解和使用这两种语言。
英汉缩略语的了解,有助于更好地理解和学习这两种语言,特别是在学习英语的时候,可以帮助人们更快地记忆英语中的一些专业术语,而且可以更好地理解其背后的含义,也有助于更多地学习到汉语中的常用习惯用语和俗语。
此外,英汉缩略语的了解还可以促进汉英文化的交流,加深两者的融合,从而在英汉语言及文化领域构建起更为和谐的区域形象。
综上所述,汉语和英语的缩略语都是一种非常有效的语言形式,可以让更多的人更好地理解和使用这两种语言,进而促进汉英文化的交流与融合,为构建起一个更为和谐的区域形象,作出积极的贡献。

(May 2008)An abbreviation(from Latin brevis"short") is a shortened form of a word or phrase. Usually, but not always, it consists of a letter or group of letters taken from the word or phrase. For example, the word "abbreviation" can itself be represented by the abbreviation "abbr." or "abbrev."Contents[hide]1 History2 Types of abbreviationo 2.1 Syllabic abbreviation2.1.1 Use in various languages2.1.2 Syllabic abbreviations in names of organizations 3 Style conventions in Englisho 3.1 Lowercase letterso 3.2 Periods (full stops) and spaceso 3.3 Plural formso 3.4 Conventions followed by publications and newspapers3.4.1 United States3.4.2 United Kingdom3.4.3 Miscellaneous and general rules4 Measurement5 See also6 References7 External links[edit] HistoryAbbreviation has been used as long as phonetic script existed, in some senses actually being more common in early literacy, where spelling out a whole word was often avoided, initial letters commonly being used to represent words in specific application. By classical Greece and Rome, the reduction of words to single letters was still normal, but no longer the default. An increase in literacy has, historically, sometimes spawned a trend toward abbreviation. The standardization of English inthe 15th through 17th centuries included such a growth in the use of abbreviation[1]. At first, abbreviations were sometimes represented with various suspension signs, not only periods. For example, specific phoneme sets like "er" were dropped from words and replaced with ?, like "mast?" instead of "master" or exac?bate instead of "exacerbate". While this seems trivial, it was symptomatic of an attempt by people manually reproducing academic texts to reduce their copy time. An example from the Oxford university Register, 1503:Mast? subwarden? y ?mēde me to you. And wher? y wrot to you the last wyke that y trouyde itt good to differr? thelection? ov?to quīdena? tinitatis y have be thoug?t me syn? that itt woll be then? a bowte mydsom?.In the 1830s in the United States, starting with Boston, abbreviation became a fad. For example, during the growth of philological linguistic theory in academic Britain, abbreviating became very trendy. The use of abbreviation for the names of "Father of modern etymology" J. R. R. Tolkien and his friend C. S. Lewis, and other members of Oxford literary group known as the Inklings, are sometimes cited as symptomatic of this. Likewise, a century earlier in Boston, a fad of abbreviation started that swept the United States, with the globally popular term OK generally credited as a remnant of its influence.[2][3]After World War II, the British greatly reduced their use of the full stop and other punctuations after abbreviations in at least semi-formal writing, while the Americans more readily kept its use until more recently, and still maintain it more than Britons. The classic example, considered by their American counterparts quite curious, was the maintenance of the internal comma in a British organization of secret agents called the"Special Operations, Executive" — "S.O.,E" — which is not found in histories written after about 1960.But before that, many Britons were more scrupulous at maintaining the French form. In French, the period only follows an abbreviation if the last letter in the abbreviation is not the last letter of its antecedent: "M." is the abbreviation for "monsieur" while "Mme" is that for "madame". Like many other cross-channel linguistic acquisitions, many Britons readily took this up and followed this rule themselves, while the Americans took a simpler rule and applied it rigorously.Over the years, however, the lack of convention in some style guides has made it difficult to determine which two-word abbreviations should be abbreviated with periods and which should not. The U.S. media tend to abbreviate two-word abbreviations like United States (U.S.), but not personal computer (PC) or television (TV). Many British publications have gradually done away with the use of periods in abbreviations completely.Minimization of punctuation in typewritten matter became economically desirable in the 1960s and 1970s for the many users of carbon-film ribbons, since a period or comma consumed the same length of non-reusable expensive ribbon as did a capital letter.[edit] Types of abbreviationApart from the common form of word-contraction, there are other types of abbreviation. These include acronym and initialism (includingthree-letter acronyms), apocope, clipping, elision, syncope, syllabic abbreviation, and portmanteau words.[edit] Syllabic abbreviationSee also: Clipping (morphology)A syllabic abbreviation (SA) is an abbreviation formed from (usually) initial syllables of several words, such as Interpol for Inter national pol ice, but should be distinguished from portmanteau words. They are usually written in lower case, sometimes starting with a capital letter, and are always pronounced as words rather than letter by letter.[edit] Use in various languagesSyllabic abbreviations are not widely used in English or French, but are common in certain languages, like German and Russian.They prevailed in Germany under the Nazis and in the Soviet Union for naming the plethora of new bureaucratic organizations. For example, Gestapo stands for Ge heime Sta ats-Po lizei, or "secret state police". This has given syllabic abbreviations a negative connotation, even though they were used in Germany before the Nazis, such as Schupo for Schutzpolizist. Even now Germans call part of their police Kripo for Kriminalpolizei. Syllabic abbreviations were also typical of German language used in the German Democratic Republic, for example, Stasi for Staatssicherheit ("state security", the secret police and secret service) or Vopo for Volkspolizist ("people's policeman").Some syllabic abbreviations from Russian that are familiar to English speakers include samizdat and kolkhoz. The English names for the Soviet "Comintern" (Com munist Intern ational) and "Milrevcom" (Mil itaryRev olution Com mittee) are further examples.Orwell's novel 1984 uses fictional syllabic abbreviations like "Ingsoc" (Eng lish Soc ialism) to evoke the use of language under the Nazi and Soviet regimes.East Asian languages whose writing uses Chinese-originated ideograms instead of an alphabet form abbreviations similarly by using key characters from a term or phrase. For example, in Japanese the term for the United Nations, kokusai rengō (国際連合) is often abbreviated to kokuren(国連). Such abbreviations are called ryakugo(略語) in Japanese. SAs are frequently used for names of universities: for instance, Beida(北⼤, Běidà) for Peking University (Beijing), Yondae (??) for the Yonsei University, Seouldae () for the Seoul National University and Tōdai (東⼤) for the University of Tokyo.[edit] Syllabic abbreviations in names of organizationsSyllabic abbreviations are preferred by the U.S. Navy as it increases readability amidst the large number of initialisms that would otherwise have to fit into the same acronyms. Hence DESRON 6 is used (in the full capital form) to mean "Destroyer Squadron 6," and COMNAVAIRLANT means "Commander, Naval Air Forces, Atlantic".[edit] Style conventions in EnglishIn modern English there are several conventions for abbreviations and the choice may be confusing. The only rule universally accepted is that one should be consistent, and to make this easier, publishers express their preferences in a style guide. Questions which arise include those in the following subsections.[edit] Lowercase lettersIf the original word was capitalized, then the first letter of its abbreviation should retain the capital, for example Lev. for Leviticus. When abbreviating words spelled with lower case letters, there is no need for capitalization, therefore no need for a consistent rule.[edit] Periods (full stops) and spacesA period (full stop) is sometimes written after an abbreviated word, but there is much disagreement and many exceptions.There is never a period (full stop) between letters of the same word. For example, Tiberius is abbreviated as Tb. and not as T.b..In formal British English, according to Hart's Rules, it is more common to write abbreviations with full stops if the word has been cut at the point of abbreviation but not otherwise: for example:"Doctor" becomes "Dr" (for "D–r")"Professor" becomes "Prof." (for "Prof...")"The Reverend" becomes "Revd" (for "Rev–d")"The Right Honourable" becomes "Rt Hon." (for "R–t Hon...")In American English, the period is usually added if the abbreviation might otherwise be interpreted as a word, but some American writers do not use a period here. Sometimes, periods are used for certain initialisms but not others; a notable instance in American English is to write United States, European Union, and United Nations as U.S., EU, and UN respectively.A third standard removes the full stops from all abbreviations (both "Saint" and "Street" become "St"). The U.S. Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices advises that periods should not be used with abbreviations on road signs, except for cardinal directions as part of a destination name. (For example, "Northwest Blvd", "W. Jefferson", and "PED XING"all follow this recommendation.)Acronyms that were originally capitalized (with or without periods) but have since entered the vocabulary as generic words are no longer abbreviated with capital letters nor with any periods. Examples are sonar, radar, lidar, laser, and scuba.Spaces are generally not used between single letter abbreviations of words in the same phrase, so one almost never encounters "U. S.".When an abbreviation appears at the end of a sentence, use only one period: The capital of the United States is Washington, D.C.[edit] Plural formsTo form the plural of an abbreviation, a number, or a capital letter used as a noun, simply add a lowercase s to the end.A group of MPsThe roaring '20sMind your Ps and QsTo form the plural of an abbreviation with periods, a lowercase letter used as a noun, and abbreviations or capital letters that would be ambiguous or confusing if the 's' alone were added, use an apostrophe and an s.A group of Ph.D.'sThe x's of the equationSending SOS'sIn Latin, and continuing to the derivative forms in European languages as well as English, single-letter abbreviations had the plural being a doubling of the letter, e.g. for footnotes.d. didot — dd. didots (typography)h. hand — hh. hands (horse height)l. line — ll. linesp. page — pp. pagesP. pope — PP. popesv. volume — vv. volumes[edit] Conventions followed by publications and newspapers [edit] United StatesPublications based in the U.S. tend to follow the style guides of the Chicago Manual of Style and the Associated Press. [verification needed] The U.S. Government follows a style guide published by the U.S. Government Printing Office. However, there is some inconsistency in abbreviation styles, as they are not rigorously defined by style guides. Some two-word abbreviations, like "United Nations", are abbreviated with uppercase letters and periods, and others, like "personal computer" (PC) and "compact disc" (CD), are not; rather, they are typically abbreviated without periods and in uppercase letters. A third variation is to use lowercase letters with periods; this is used by Time Magazine in abbreviating "public relations" (p.r.). Moreover, even three-word abbreviations (most U.S. publications use uppercase abbreviations without periods) are sometimes not consistently abbreviated, even within the same article.The New York Times is unique in having a consistent style by always abbreviating with periods: P.C., I.B.M., P.R. This is in contrast with the trend of British publications to omit periods for convenience.[edit] United KingdomMany British publications follow some of these guidelines in abbreviation:For the sake of convenience, many British publications, including the BBC and The Guardian, have completely done away with the use of full stops or periods in all abbreviations.These include:o Social titles, like Ms or Mr (though these would usually not have had full stops — see above) Capt, Prof, etc.;o Two-letter abbreviations for countries ("US", not "U.S.");o Abbreviations beyond three letters (full caps for all except initialisms);o Words seldom abbreviated with lower case letters ("PR", instead of "p.r.", or "pr")o Names ("FW de Klerk", "GB Whiteley", "Park JS"). A notable exception is the newspaper The Economist which writes "MrF.W. de Klerk".o Scientific units (see Measurement below).Acronyms are often referred to with only the first letter of the abbreviation capitalised. For instance, the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation can be abbreviated as "Nato" or "NATO", and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome as "Sars" or "SARS" (compare with"laser" which has made the full transition to an English word and is rarely capitalised at all).Initialisms are always written in capitals; for example the "British Broadcasting Corporation"is abbreviated to "BBC", never "Bbc". An initialism is similar to acronym but is not pronounced as a word.When abbreviating scientific units, no space is added between the number and unit (100mph, 100m, 10cm, 10°C). (This is contrary to the SI standard, see below.)[edit] Miscellaneous and general rulesPlurals are often formed by doubling the last letter of the abbreviation. Most of these deal with writing and publishing:MS=manuscript, MSS=manuscripts; l=line, ll=lines; p=page,pp=pages; s=section, ss=sections; op.=opus, opp.=opera. This form, derived from Latin is used in Europe in many places: dd=didots. "The following (lines or pages)" is denoted by "ff". One example that does not concern printing is hh=hands.A doubled letter also appears in abbreviations of some Welsh names, as in Welsh the double "l" is a separate sound: "Ll. George" for (British prime minister) Lloyd George.Some titles, such as "Reverend" and "Honourable", are spelt out when preceded by "the", rather than as "Rev." or "Hon." respectively.This is true for most British publications, and some in the United States.It is usually advised to spell out the abbreviation where it is new or unfamiliar to the reader (UNESCO in a magazine about music,because it refers to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, whose work does not concern the music).It is considered acceptable to start off a sentence with an abbreviation, however it is then advised to "ignore" the abbreviation and start the sentence as if it had begun with noabbreviation, but only if it is not the name of a person, place, or thing. For example, "BTW There is a new office manager." would be acceptable, though even without capping the "T", this instance is still accepted.[edit] MeasurementThe International System of Units(SI) defines a set of base units, from which other "derived" units may be obtained. The abbreviations, or moreaccurately "symbols" (using Roman letters, or Greek in the case of ohm) for these units are also clearly defined together with a set of prefixes for which there are also abbreviations or symbols. There should never be a period after or inside a unit; both '10 k.m.' and '10 k.m' are wrong — the only correct form is '10 km' (only followed with a period when at the end of a sentence).A period "within" a compound unit denotes multiplication of the base units on each side of it. Ideally, this period should be raised to the centre of the line, but often it is not. For instance, '5 ms' means 5 millisecond(s), whereas '5 m.s' means 5 metre·second(s). The "m.s" here is a compound unit formed from the product of two fundamental SI units — metre and second.There should always be a (non-breaking) space between the number and the unit — '25 km' is correct, and '25km' is incorrect. In Section 5.3.3. of The International System of Units (SI), the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) states "The numerical value always precedes the unit, and a space is always used to separate the unit from the number. … The only exceptions to this rule are for the unit symbols for degree, minute, and second for plane angle."[4]The case of letters(uppercase or lowercase) has meaning in the SI system, and should never be changed in a misguided attempt to follow an abbreviation style. For example, "10 S" denotes 10 siemens (a unit of conductance), while "10 s" denotes 10 seconds. Any unit named after a person is denoted by a symbol with an upper case first letter (S, Pa, A, V, N, Wb, W), but spelt out in full in lower case, (siemens, pascal, ampere, volt, newton, weber and watt). By contrast g, l, m, s, cd, ha represent gramme, litre, metre, second, candela and hectare respectively. The one slight exception to this rule is that the symbol for litre is allowed to be L to help avoid confusion with an upper case i or a one in some typefaces — compare l, I, and 1.Likewise, the abbreviations of the prefixes denoting powers of ten are case-sensitive: m (milli) represents a thousandth, but M (mega) represents a million, so by inadvertent changes of case one may introduce (in this example) an error of a factor of 1 000 000 000. When a unit is written in full, the whole unit is written in lowercase, including the prefix: millivolt for mV, nanometre for nm, gigacandela for Gcd.The above rules, if followed, ensure that the SI system is always unambiguous, so for instance mK denotes millikelvin, MK denotes megakelvin, K.m denotes kelvin.metre, and km denotes kilometre. Formssuch as k.m and Km are ill-formed and technically meaningless in the SI system, although the intended meaning might be inferred from the context.[edit] See also。

acronym 首字母缩略法
让我们来探讨一下这个主题——acronym 首字母缩略法。
所谓首字母缩略法,指的是利用一个或多个词的首字母组成的缩略语。
acronym 作为一种常见的语言现象,已经深入到我们的日常生活中,成为了我们交流的一部分。
1. acronym的定义acronym,即首字母缩略词,是由一组词的首字母组合而成的新词,每个字母代表一个单词。
它是一种简洁、高效的表达方式,可以将复杂的概念或长句简化为简洁的缩略语。
2. acronym的应用领域在不同的领域,acronym 都有着广泛的应用。
比如在科技领域,有着诸多的常见acronym,比如HTML、CSS、本人等,这些acronym 通常代表着一种技术或者概念;在商业领域,像CEO、CFO、KPI等acronym也是家喻户晓,它们常常代表着某个职位或者业务指标;在医学领域,像DNA、RNA、本人DS等acronym更是常见,它们代表着不同的疾病或者科学术语。
3. acronym的特点acronym的使用具有简洁、便捷的特点。
在书写和口语交流中,acronym可以起到省略繁琐文字的作用,提高了表达效率。
另外,acronym的广泛应用也方便了人们之间的交流,因为一些acronym 已经成为了共同的认知,人们可以更快地理解对方的意思,促进了信息的传递和交流。
4. 我对acronym的看法在我的看来,acronym的使用有着双面性。
acronym的使用提高了信息表达的效率,方便了人们的交流。
另过度使用acronym也可能会造成信息沟通上的障碍,因为并非所有的acronym都是大家共识的,一些专业术语的acronym可能会让非专业人士感到困惑。
acronym作为一种特殊的表达方式,在我们的日常交流中扮演着重要的角色。
我们应该在使用acronym的也要注意避免造成信息交流上的不便。
只有灵活和恰当地运用acronym,才能更好地促进信息的传递和理解。

acronyms构词法
acronyms构词法
构词法(acronyms)是一种通过缩写词或字母组合来称呼某个特
定词组或术语的方法。
在构词法中,每个字母都代表词组中的一个词语或一部分。
这种方法常常用于简化长词组的表达、提高文档的可读性,并广泛应用于各种领域和专业术语中。
在构词法中,有一些常见的规则和约定:
1. 首字母缩写词(Initialism):将每个单词的首字母缩写为一
个新的词,例如NASA(National Aeronautics and Space Administration,美国国家航空航天局)。
2. 字母缩写词(Acronym):将词组的各个单词的首字母或几
个字母组合在一起形成一个新词,例如UNICEF(United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund,联合国儿童基金会)。
3. 合成词(Blending):将两个或更多的词语的一部分组合在
一起形成一个新词,例如brunch(breakfast + lunch,早午餐)。
4. 助记词(Mnemonics):使用一个选定的词或短语来表示一
连串需要记忆的信息,例如ROYGBIV(红橙黄绿青蓝紫,表
示可见光谱)。
上述构词法的使用与实际应用场景相关,不同行业和领域会有不同的约定和规则。
构词法在科技、医学、军事、教育等领域中被广泛使用,可以简化专业术语的表达,提高交流效率。
acronym(首字母缩略词) 红色词汇
acronym(首字母缩略词) 红色词汇Acronym (首字母缩略词) 红色词汇首字母缩略词(Acronym)是一种十分常见的红色词汇形式,它由一个或多个单词的首字母或其他重要部分组成,并被用作简称或代指特定概念。
在现代社会中,我们经常会遇到各种各样的首字母缩略词,它们不仅为我们提供了便捷的表达方式,也成为了我们日常生活和工作中必不可少的一部分。
本文将探讨首字母缩略词的定义、分类以及在不同领域的运用。
一、定义首字母缩略词是通过选取一个或多个单词的首字母或其他重要部分,形成一个新词并用作缩写。
它们通常由大写字母组成,并在文本中以大写形式展示。
首字母缩略词是为了减少长词组的使用和书写重复而产生的,其目的是提供一种简洁、高效的表达方式。
例如,UNESCO (联合国教科文组织)和NASA(美国国家航空航天局)就是常见的首字母缩略词的例子。
二、分类首字母缩略词可以分为两种主要类型:发音缩略词和字母缩略词。
1. 发音缩略词:这种缩略词根据词组的发音进行拼写。
它们通过剪短原词组的一部分来形成一个新的词,并保持了原有词组的发音特征。
例如,RADAR(雷达)和SCUBA(水肺设备)就是发音缩略词的例子。
2. 字母缩略词:这种缩略词是根据词组的字母进行拼写。
它们通常是选择一个或多个单词的首字母或其他重要部分,并且按照特定的顺序来排列。
例如,NATO(北约)和AIDS(艾滋病)就是字母缩略词的例子。
三、运用领域首字母缩略词在各个领域中都被广泛应用,以下是一些常见的运用领域:1. 科技领域:IT(信息技术)和AI(人工智能)等首字母缩略词在科技领域中非常常见。
它们简化了科技术语的表达,并且在科技文献和媒体报道中得到广泛应用。
2. 医学领域:首字母缩略词在医学领域中具有重要意义。
例如,MRI(核磁共振成像)和DNA(脱氧核糖核酸)是医学领域中常见的缩略词,它们为医疗专业人士提供了一个简单而有效的方式来描述复杂的概念。
3. 商业领域:商业领域中存在许多首字母缩略词,它们用于快速表达商业术语和组织机构名称。

语言学概论 名词解释
1. Design features of language:(1)Arbitrariness(任意性):there is no logical or intrinsic connection between a particular sound and the meaning it is associated with.(声音和意思无直接联系)eg: why English should use the sounds /dog/ to refer to the animal dog, the relationship between the sounds and their meaning is quite accidental.(2)Duality(双重性):the way meaningless elements of language at one level(sounds and letters)combine to form meaningful units at another level. That is, sounds such as d, g, f, o, mean nothing separately. They normally take on meaning only when they are combined in certain ways, as in dog, fog, and god.2.Descriptive grammars(描述性语法): attempt to tell what is in the language(语言第一,语法第二,语法是为语言服务)Prescriptive grammars(规定性语法):tell people what should be in the language.3.Phonetics(语音学): the study of linguistic speech sounds, how they ate produced, how they are perceived, and their physical properties.It can be divided into 3main branches:(1) articulatory phonetics(有音节的), which is the study of how speech sounds are produced(2)acoustic phonetics(有关声音的),which deals with the transmission of speech sounds through the air(3)auditoryphonetics(听觉的),which deals with how speech sounds are perceived by the listener.(同化): a phonological process whereby a sound becomes phonetically similar to a neighboring sound ,eg: a vowel becomes when followed by a consonant.5.Phonology(音系学): the study of the abstract systems underlying the sounds of language.6.Minimal pairs(最小对立体): a pair of words that differ by only a single sound in the same position, . look/ took, spill/still and keep/coopMinimal set(最小对立体集): when a group of words can be differentiated, each one from the others, by changing one phoneme(always in the same position)eg: a minimal set based on the vowel phonemes of English would include feat, fit, fate, fat, fought, foot, and one based on consonants could have big, pig, and wig.7.Syllable(音节): these units which are often longer than one should and smaller than a whole word. 1. phonetically, syllables are usually described as consisting of a center which has little or no airflow and which sounds comparatively syllables are defined by the way in which vowels and consonants combine to form various sequences.8.Stress(重音): the prominence given to certain sounds in speech.9.Morphology (形态学):the study of the structure of words.10.Root(词根): the morpheme that remains when all affixes are strippes from a complex word. eg: system from un- +system + atic +allymorphemes(派生词缀)可能会改变词性: a morpheme that serves to derive a word of one class or meaning from a word of another class or meaning. eg: -ment derives the noun from the verb establish; re- changes the meaning of the verb paint to "paint again".Inflectional morphemes(屈折词缀)不改变词性: which are not used to produce new words, but rather to show aspects of the grammatical function of a word.(语素变体): a phonetic form in which a morpheme is realized, . -s, -es, and all allomorphs of the plural morpheme.distribution(互补散布):allophones of the same phoneme are said to be in complementary distribution for they never occur in the same contest. Eg: the unaspirated /p/ always occurs after /s/ while the aspirated one always occurs in other places.of word formation:(1)compounding(合成构词法):words like typewriter, workshop,tractor-driver are formed by putting two words together. Two free morphemes are combined to form a compound.(2)Derivation(派生构词法):derivation is done by adding affixes to other words or morphemes. A derivational word consists of at least a free morpheme and a bound morpheme. For example, by adding affixes un-, mis-, -ful, -less, -ism, we can get words like unhappy, misunderstand, careful, careless.(3)Blending(混成构词法): a process a single new word can also be formed by combining two separate forms. Typically, blending is finished by taking only the beginning of one word and joining it to the end of another word. eg: the English word brunch is made from breakfast and lunch.(4)Acronym(首字母拼音词):some new words are formed from the first letters of a series of words. They are pronounced as single words, as in NATO(North Atlantic Treaty Organization)(句法学): used to refer to the structure of sentences and to the study of sentence structure.(1)Immediate constituent analysis(直接成份分析法):also called IC Analysis, in linguistics, a system of grammatical analysis that divides sentences into successive layers, or constituents, until, in the final layer, each constituent consists of only a word or meaningful part of a word. (A constituent is any word orconstruction that enters into some larger construction.) eg. In the sentence “The old man ran away,” the first division into immediate constituents would be between “the old man” and “ran away.” The immediate constituents of “the old man” are “the” and “old man.” At the next level “old man” is divided into “old” and “man.” It was introduced by the United States linguist Leonard Bloomfield in 1933.(2)Recursion(递归性):the feature of recursion permits a grammar of a finite number of rules to generate an infinite number of sentences. For example: This is the house that jack built. /This is the cat that lived in the house that jack built.(语义学):the study of linguistic meaning.(1)Sense(意义)语言之间的关系:the inherent part of an expression’s meaning which, together with context, determines its referent. It is also called intension. Eg: knowing the sense of a noun phrase such as the president of the United States in 2021 allows one to determine that George W. Bush is the referent.(2)Reference(指称,参照):the relationship between words and the things, actions ,events, and qualities they stand for. An example in English is the relationship between the word tree and the object "tree" in the real world.17、Pragmatics(语用学):a branch of linguistics that studieslanguage in use.(1)Anaphora(回指):the process where a word or phrase refers back to another word or phrase which was used earlier in a text or conversation.(2)Cohesion(衔接): the grammatical and/or lexical relationships between the different elements of a discourse. This may be the relationship between different sentences or between different parts of a (连贯): :the relationships which link the meanings of utterances in a discourse of the sentences in a 、Iconicity(象似性):the major types of iconicity in language which have frequently been proposed are those of order, distance, and complexity.(1)Iconicity of order(顺序象似性):refers to the similarity between temporal events and the linear arrangement of elements in a linguistic of construction. . Caesar’s historic words “veni, vidi, vici”-I came, I saw, I conquered.) iconicity of order reflects the consistency of language with human cognition and the objective world.(2)Iconicity of distance(距离象似性):accounts for the fact that things which belong together conceptually tend to be put together linguistically, and things that do not belong together are put at a distance. That is, elements which have a close relationship must be placed close together.(3)Iconicity of complexity(复杂象似性):accounts for our tendency to associate more form with more meaning and,conversely ,less form with less meaning.prototype theory(原形理论):what members of a particular community think of as the best example of a lexical category. eg: For some English speakers "cabbage" might be the prototypical vegetable.gap(辞汇空缺) : the absence of a word in a particular place in a semantic field of a language is called lexical gap. For instance, in English there is no singular noun that covers both cow and bull as horse covers stallion and mare.meaning(联想意义):connotative(内涵), social, affective(情感), reflective(反射), and collocative(搭配)meanings are called associative meaning.Reflective meaning(反射意义):is the meaning which arises in cases of multiple conceptual meanings, when one sense of a word forms part of our response to another sense.(音位变体):a phonetic form in which a phoneme is realized.(变音符号):is a set of symbols which can be added to the letter-symbols to make finer distinctions than the letters alone make possible.。
词汇学中的Acronym
Acronym
An acronym is an abbreviation formed from the initial components in a phrase or a word. These components may be individual letters or parts of words .There is no universal agreement on the precise definition of various names for such abbreviations nor on written usage. In English and most other languages, such abbreviations historically had limited use, but they became much more common in the 20th century. Acronyms are a type of word formation process, and they are viewed as a subtype of blending.

acronym
By Richard Nordquist,
Filed In:
Definition:
A word formed from the initial letters of a name (for example, NATO, from North Atlantic Treaty Organization) or by combining initial letters of a series of words (radar, from radio detection and ranging). Adjective: acronymic. See also: initialism.
Etymology:
From the Greek, "point" + "name"
Examples and Observations:
∙"There is only one known pre-20th-century word with an acronymic origin . . .: colinderies or colinda, an acronym for the Colonial and Indian Exposition
(1886)."
(David Wilton, Word Myths, 2004)
∙"The difference between acronyms and abbreviations is this: acronyms are proper words created from the initial letter or two of the words in a phrase, and
they are pronounced like other words (cf. snafu, radar, laser, or UNESCO). By
contrast, abbreviations do not form proper words, and so they are pronounced
as strings of letters, for example, S.O.B., IOU, U.S.A., MP, lp, or tv."
(Keith Allan and Kate Burridge, Euphemism and Dysphemism, Oxford University
Press, 1991)
∙"I have a couple of lists that I can refer to throughout the day, but I don't have the official 'FAT' book yet. Yes, it really is called the FAT (Federal Acronym and
Terms) book."
(John Scales)
∙ABBA: The name of this 1970s Swedish pop group was derived from the first names of the group's members: Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny, and Anni-Frid.
∙BOMFOG: from the initial letters in "Brotherhood Of Man, Fatherhood Of God."
