现代英语词汇学概论学习心得体会300-500字
通过对《现代英语词汇学概论》一书的深入学习,我对英语词汇有了全面的系统的了解。
通过学习英语语言的发展演变历史,加强了我对英语学习的兴趣。
另外,学习了英语的形态结构和构词法,认识到词根词缀对于单词的组成起着重要的作用,同时也有利于更好的记忆单词,记单词也不再是写记硬背,通过词根词缀以及了解单词的发展演变,更能够深刻的记忆单词。
同时,当你在阅读理解中遇到陌生的单词时,也可以通过词根词缀去旁敲侧击单词的含义,从而有助于理解文章的内容。
还有,通过学习构词法的八种小途径,让我更有效的扩充自己的词汇。
现代英语词汇学,原以为会是很复杂的晦涩难懂的一门学科。
然而,一学期下来,在老师的指引下和自己的看书研读,感觉吸收起来也轻松了许多,通过整理,在大脑中形成了英语词汇学的基本框架。
总而言之,通过对此书的学习,受益颇深!。
《现代英语词汇学概论》----解析汇报(张韵斐)
张韵斐著《现代英语词汇学概论》一一解析第一部分Chapter I英语词汇的概论(A general survey of English vocabulary)Bloomfield 1933 中对词的定义是,每个单词都是最小的自由词。
然而这个定义不够全面,存在着缺陷。
首先,不是所有的单词都可以独立出现,如the , a , my这些单词单独出现则没有具体意义。
另外,Bloomfield 的定义侧重在于语法(syntax )却没有涉及到词的意义。
随着词汇学的发展跟完善,人们给词下了较为完整的定义。
“词,今指语言组织中的基础单位,能独立运用,具有声音、意义和语法功能。
”(《辞海》1984 (上) 375页,上海辞书出版社)一种语言中所有的单词汇集起来便构成了该语言的词库。
纵观英语的发展历史,我们可以知道,大多数的英语词汇都是外来词,它从拉丁语,法语和希腊语等语言中汲取词汇,不断的扩充自己,为己所用。
特别是第二次世界大战之后,英语词汇得到了空前的发展。
现代英语词汇快速发展的原因主要有四方面。
一是科学技术的快速发展,二是社会经济的全球化,三是英语国家的政治和文化变化,最后是其他文化和语言对英语的强烈影响。
英语词汇是由各种不同类型的单词组成,而这些单词有着不同的分类标准。
根据词的起源可以分为本族语和外来语;根据使用水平可以分为普通词汇,文学词汇。
口头词汇,俚语以及科学术语。
基础语库的基本特征是具有民族特征,稳定性,构词的能力和搭配能力。
第二部分Chapter H 到Chapter IV英语词汇的形态结构和词的构词(Morphological structure of Englishwords and word-formati on )(一) 词素(Morphemes )单词是有词素(morphemes )构成的。
词素即英语语言中有意义的最小单位,同时具有声音和意义。
单词可以有一个或一个以上的词素组成。
如:n ati on是一个词素,national 有nation+al 两个词素。

本文将对现代英语词汇学进行概论性介绍,具体内容包括词汇学的定义、其发展历史及其与语言学关系等。
首先,现代英语词汇学是一门使用系统研究法研究词汇知识的学科,以研究词语本身的构成、性质、发生和演变等为研究的核心,旨在揭示英语语言的实质特性和本身的内部结构特征。
其次,现代英语词汇学的发展史相对较晚,可以追溯到19世纪的拉丁语和希腊语研究,到20世纪中叶的中世纪英语研究、词形学和语义学,乃至截止到当代英语语言学的研究。
最后,现代英语词汇学与语言学密切相关。
通过词汇学研究,可以有效地揭示语言的实质性属性、归纳出英语语法规律以及具有指导意义的语言技巧,从而深入了解语言,提升英语水平。
综上所述,现代英语词汇学是一门涉及英语词汇系统研究及其它语言学知识的研究学科,它的研究可以帮助我们了解英语的实质特性、语言结构和语言技巧,从而能够有效地提升英语水平。
现代英语词汇学的研究方法主要包括分类法、历史方法、概率法、系统语用分析法等。
通过这些研究方法,可以有效地揭示词义的内在联系,不仅可以有效理解和记忆单词,还可以有效掌握英语的技巧。
例如,分类法可以有效地将单词分类组合,以便于记忆和理解;通过历史方法,可以更好地理解英语变化的规律,掌握固定搭配和表达方式;而通过概率法,可以有效地把握单词的使用倾向及相关熟词。
系统语用分析法则可以有效地把握语篇表达的价值观,例如把握上下文和情境,从而掌握英语表达方法。
从上述内容可以看出,现代英语词汇学对于英语学习者有很重要的教育意义,它可以帮助我们了解英语的实质特性、把握语言结构及其它知识,从而更好地提升我们的英语水平。

现代英语词汇学概论
现代英语词汇学概论
作为英语学习的重要组成部分,词汇学的研究对于英语学习者有着至关重要的意义。
现代英语词汇学概论作为一门涉及英语词汇学研究的重要课程,在英语学习中具有特殊的作用。
现代英语词汇学主要由3个基本概念组成,即词汇意义、词汇结构和词汇使用。
词汇意义是指每一个英语词汇的含义,它可以从五个不同的角度来看待,即反义词辨析、比较辨析、语法辨析、系统性辨析和字义区分。
通过这些角度,学习者可以全面而准确地理解和掌握英语词汇的含义。
词汇结构包括词素和词形,它们可以帮助学习者更好地理解每个单词的组成。
例如,“teach”和“teacher”都有相同的词素“teach”,但其词形不同,一个是动词,另一个是名词。
词汇使用是指英语词汇如何使用,它包括词汇类别、搭配、句法功能、语用功能等。
这些有助于学习者获得与英语词汇使用有关的技能,提高英语语言表述的准确性和流利性。
以上是现代英语词汇学的概述。
学习者们可以通过对这些概念的深入分析,全面地理解和掌握英语词汇的结构、意义和使用,从而提升英语学习的能力。
现代英语词汇学的研究具有多方面的意义。
首先,这可以帮助学习者更好地理解英语语言,提高学习者阅读理解能力。
其次,它可以帮助学习者提高英语口语能力,改善口头表达交流。
最后,它还可以
