Questions: 3. What are the differences between function words and content words?
a) In kind of meaning: Function words serve grammatically more than anything else. They do not have much lexical meaning and some of them have no lexical meaning of their own. Content words are used to name objects, qualities, actions, processes or states and have independent lexical meanings. In number: The number of function words is small while the number of content words is large. In stability: Function words are stable; they do not come and go with changing fashions and ideas. Content words belong to an open list. New lexical items are constantly being created while old ones may drop out of use. In frequency of occurrence: Content words as a class are characterized by low frequency of occurrence in comparison with function words.
