1.5 Classification of Words • The English vocabulary, multifarious in nature, consists of words of all kinds. They can be classified by different criteria and for different purposes.
e. g. • In medicine: photoscanning, hepatitis, indigestion, penicillin • In education: audiovisual, megauniversity, microteaching

IntroductionWhat is linguistics?Generally speaking, linguistics can be defined as the scientificstudy of language. To be more exact, linguistics studies the general principles upon which all human languages areconstructed and operate as systems of human communication.LEXICOLOGY1.The term lexicology contains two Greek morphemes: “lexikon”and “logie”; the former means “word or phrase”, while the latter “learning or the study of”.2. The literal meaning is the “science of the word”.3. It is the study of the signification/meaning and application/uses of words.4. Lexicology is a branch of linguistics inquiring into the origins and meanings of words ( WNWD-Webster?s New World Dictionary of the American Language ).THE FIVE SUB-BRANCHES OF LEXICOLOGY 1.Semantics: the study of the meanings of words and other parts of language.2.Etymology: studies the meanings, origin and history of individual words and their development.3. Historical lexicology: studies from a historical point of viewthe development of vocabulary4. Phraseology(成语学）: mainly deals with set expressionsand idioms.5. Lexicography: studies the writing and making ofdictionaries.English lexicologyEnglish lexicology deals with English words, their origin, meaning, morphological structures, semantic structures, sense relations , idioms, historical development, formation and usages.The Nature of English LexicologyEnglish lexicology is a theoretically-oriented course. It is chiefly concerned with the basic theories of words in general and of English words in particular. However, it is a practical course as well, for in the discussion, we shall inevitably deal with copious stocks of words and idioms, and many usages examples. Naturally, there will be a large quantity of practice involved.THE AIMS OF THIS COURSEOffer an insight into the origin and development of the Englishvocabulary.Give a systematic description of the English vocabulary.Discuss the problems of word-structure and word-formation Study the use of English words , their meanings and changes in meaning, their sense relations.THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE COURSEDevelop your personal vocabulary and consciously increase your wordpower (active vocabulary).Understand word-meaning and organize, classify and store words moreeffectively.Raise your awareness of meaning and usages, use words more accurately and appropriately.Develop your skills and habits of analyzing and generalizinglinguisticphenomena in your learning experiences.Ultimately improve your receptive and productive skills in languageprocessing as well as language production.TWO APPROACHES TO THE STUDY OF ENGLISHLEXICOLOGYA synchronic approach is an approach to the study of a language at one period of time,A diachronic approach is an approach to the study of the change in a language that took place over a period of time.There are two approaches to the study of words, namely synchronic and diachronic. From a synchronic point of view, words can be studied at a point in time, disregarding whatever changes might be taking place. For example the word …wife? now means ……a married woman, esp. in relation to her husband??. This is the current meaning.It has an obsolete meaning …woman?, which is only preserved in midwife, housewife, Bathwife, etc. However if we take a diachronic perspective, we will consider the word historically, looking into its origin and changes in form and meaning. In this light, the word …wife? evolved from the old English … wif ?, meaning … woman?, but later it became specialized in the course of development to the modern meaning …a married woman?.TWO APPROACHES TO THE STUDY OF ENGLISHLEXICOLOGYModern linguistics is mainly synchronic, focusing on the present-day language (English words), but we need the diachronic approach as a supplement, for a knowledge ofhistorical development of the vocabulary will definitely be of great help to us in our language study.Questions and Tasks1. What is lexicology?2. What is the nature and scope of English lexicology?3. Why should a student of English study English lexicology?。

1.3 Sound and Form
• It is generally agreed that the written form of a natural language is the orthographical(拼法) record of the oral form. Naturally the written form should agree with the oral form. In other words, the sound should be consistent with the form. • Question: Do you think such viewpoint lies in our real language world?
• To sum up, the definition of a word will cover the following points: • (1)a minimal free form of a language • (2)a sound unity • (3) a unit of meaning • (4) a form that can function alone in a sentence. • Then can you give a definition according to the above points?
• Example, some short vertical strokes such as “i, u, v, m, w, n” looked all alike, consequently, their handwriting caused misunderstanding, to solve the problem in part, they changed the letter “u” to “ o ”when it came before “m, n, v.”（we have no “uv”, immoral, impolite, illegal, irregular）

1.1 Definition of a word
There has been no agreed definition to the term
“word”. The definition may have the following
versions:
① a minimal free form of a language;
② a sound unity;
③ a unit of meaning;
④ a form that can function alone in a sentence.
To sum up, we can say that “a word is a minimal free form of a language that has a given sound and meaning and syntactic function”.

vain (陡然), vein(静脉)，vane(风向标)
1.3 Sound and Form
Form refers to the written form of the oral form. Naturally the written form should agree with the oral form. In other words, the sound should be similar to the form. This is true of English in its earliest stage, e. g. Old English.

Chapter 1 Basic Concepts of Words and Vocabulary 1． The definition of a word： A word is a minimal free form of language which has a given sound and meaning and syntactic function. 2． Sound and Meaning There is no logical or intrisinc connection between a sound and what it refers to. The relation between sound and meaning is almost always arbitrary or conventional. The same language can use the same sound to mean different things and the different languages use different sounds to refer to the same thing. 3． Sound and Form The written form of English is not an acurate representation of the spoken form.There are different causes of the differences between sounds and forms in the English language. 1）The English alphabet was adopted from the Romans, which does not employ the system of one single letter to stand for one sound. 2）The early scribes deliberately changed spelling of words to make a line even or for easier recogniton. 3） Dictionaries help to fix the spelling of words 4） English has borrowed many words from other languages, which may not have been assimilated . 4． Vocabulary All the words in a language are termed as vocabulary. However, vocabulary can also be used to refer to all the words in a book, or in a particular historical period of time, or in a dialet, or in a particular discipline, or even to all the words that a person possesses. 5． Classification of Words Words can be classified into the basic word stock and nonbasic word stock by use frequence, into content words and functional words by notion and into native words and borrowed words by origin. 1）The Characteristics of the Basic Word Stock （1） All national character （2）stability （3）productivity （4）polysemy （5）collocability 2）The Characteristics of borrowed words （1）Denizens: the early borrowed words which have been assimilated and conformed to the English way of pronounciation and spelling. （2）Aliens: the borrowed words which have retained the foreign way of pronounciation or spelling and have not been assimilated into the English language. （3）Translation-loans: the words and expressions which are formed from the existing English materials, but modelled on the patterns of another language. （4）Semantic loans: Words which have not been borrowed with reference to the form, but to the meanings. 3） Roles Played by the native words. Native words are limited in number, but form the core of the English language. Native words are often neutral in style and frequent in use。

Step 1
Linguistics
Discuss: What is lexicology and why do we need to study it? a. Lexicology is a branch of linguistics, concerned with the study of the vocabulary of a given language. It deals with words, their origin, development, history, structure, meaning and application. In short, it is the study of the signification and application of words. It aims at investigating and studying the morphological structures, semantic structures, relations, formation and usages. It is a theoretically-oriented course as well as a practical course.

Step 2 The connection of lexicology with other branches of linguistics a. with phonetics, which is the study of speech sounds made in spoken, without speech sound, there is no word because every word is a unity of sound and meaning.

A Course in English Lexicology
• Why should we learn lexicology?
• Language learning includes the learning of pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary, among which vocabulary is essential. A famous scholar Werkers once said, without grammar, very little can be conveyed, without vocabulary, nothing can be conveyed. And, no matter how well the student learns grammar, no matter how successfully he masters the sounds of a second language, without words to express a wide range of meanings, communication in that language can’t happen in any meaningful way.

The second type of definition considers the word as a thought unit or a psychological unit.
Farmer Rethink Spoonful all of a sudden as usual.
Semantics
Semantics studies meaning. It is usually approached from one of two perspectives: philosophical or linguistic.
Philosophical semantics is concerned with the logical properties of lanபைடு நூலகம்uage, the nature of formal theories, and the language of logic.
Linguistic semantics involves all aspects of meaning in natural languages, from the meaning of complex utterances in specific context to that of individual sounds in syllables.

Animal language
Like human beings, animals need to communicate with each other to survive. They do not speak to each other in the same way as we do; instead they use many different sounds and actions to express themselves. For example, bees make a buzzing noise, lions and bears growls, cats miaow, and dogs bark. If you see a cat standing with its back arched, head lowered or legs bent, it could be scared. If a dog growls at you, it probably is angry and you should be careful. Animal language is simpler than human language, but it shows how intelligent animals are.
