Root: a morpheme which is the basic part of a word that can not be further analyzed without total loss of identity Stem: a form to which affixes of any kind can be added Bound root: a root that can not stand alone as a word Monomorphemic words: words that have nothing more than a free morpheme Affixation: Derivation (also known as affixation) is the process of formation of words by adding word-forming or derivational affixes to stems. Affixaton consisits of prefixation and suffixation. Prefixation is the formation of new words by adding prefixes to stems; suffixation is the formation of new words by adding suffixes to stems. Compounding: Compounding or composition is the formation of new words by joining two or more stems. Words formed in this way tire called compounds. Conversion：Conversion is the formation of new words by converting words of one class to another class. Functional shift = conversion Zero-derivation .Adjective to noun : (1) full conversion (2) partial conversion Acronymy Acronymy is the process of forming new words by joining the initial letters of neames of social and political organizations or special noun phrases and technical terms Acronymy 包含两类:1) initialisms (不发音)e.g. BBC, VOA, TB2) acronyms (形成新的发音)e.g. CORE, TEFL Blending is the formation of new words by combining parts of two words or a won! plus a part of another word. Words formed by blending are called blends or pormanteau. Clipping is a way of making new words which involves the shortening a longer word by cutting a part off the original and using what remains instead. Back-formation is a process of forming new words considered to the opposite process of suffixation by the removal of an affix from existing word. Words from proper names of place, people, trade, book, etc. Concept,is beyond language, is the result of human cognition, reflecting the objective world in the human mind Sense : denotes the relationships inside the language. Reference is the relationship between language and the world

Perfect homonyms are those words identical both in sound and spelling, but different in meaning, e.g. bear /bea/(n)a large heavy animal; bear /bea/(v) to put up with. Homographs are the words identical only in spelling but different in sound and meaning, e.g. saw //(v) to scatter seeds; sow/sau/(n) female adult pig. Homophones refer to the words identical only in sound but different in spelling and meaning, e. g. dear /dia/(n)a loved person: deer /dia/(n)a kind of animal. 同形同音异义词与多义词的区别 Perfect homonyms and polysemants are fully identical with regard to spelling and pronunciation. This creates the problem of differentiation. The fundamental difference between homonyms and polysemants lies in the fact that the former refers to different words which happen to share the same form and the latter is the one and same word which has several distinguishable meanings. One important criterion is to see their etymology, i.e. homonyms are from different sources whereas a polysemant is from the same source which has acquired different meanings in the course of development. The second principal consideration is semantic relatedness. The various meanings of a polysemant are correlated and connected to one central meaning to a greater or lesser degree, e. g. neck(See 6. Polysemy). On the other hand, meanings of different homonyms have nothing to do with one another In dictionaries, a polysemant has its meanings all listed under one headword whereas homonyms are listed as separate entries

同义关系 Synonyms are words which share the same or nearly the same meaning with each other but different in sound and spelling. There are absolute synonyms and relative synonyms which result from borrowing, dialects and regional English, figurative and euphemistic use of words coincidence with idiomatic expressions. There exists the difference between or among synonyms in terms of their denotation, connotation or application Absolute synonyms or complete synonyms are words which are identical in meaning in all its aspects. Relative synonyms or near-synonyms are similar or nearly the same in denotation but embrace different shades of meaning or different degrees of a given quality Sources of Synonyms 1) Borrowing 2)Dialects and regional English 3) Figurative and euphemistic use of words 4)Coincidence with idiomatic expressions 如何区分同义词? Difference in denotation2 Difference application What are the characteristics of antonyms? 1) Antonyms are classified on the basis of semantic opposition 2)A word which has more than one meaning can have more than one antonym. 3) Antonyms differ in semantic inclusion. 4)Contrary terms are gradable antonyms, differing in degree of intenisty, so each has its esponding opposite 上下义关系: Hyponymy deals with the relationship of semantic inclusion. That is, the meaning of a more specific word is included in that of another more general word Superordinates refer to some general words; subordinates denote those more specific words. Hyponymy can be described in terms of tree-like graphs, with higher-orde ordinates ab the lower subordinates. But their status either as superordinate or subordinate is relative to other terms. For example, horse, dog pig are subordinates in relation to animal, but superordinates of mare, hound and boar, Animal itself becomes a subordinate of creature. And creature in turn becomes 词义变化的种类 There are five types of meaning, changes: extension, narrowIng, degradation, elevation, and transfer among which extension and narrowing are the most common. Changes in meaning can be accounted for from extra-linguistic factors (historical reason, class reason, and psychological reason)and intra-linguistic factors( shortening, the influx of borrowing, and analogy).词义的扩大 Extension is a process by which a word with a specialized sense is generalized to cover a broader or less definite concept. Compare the following:词义的缩小 Narrowing is a process by which a word of wider meaning acquires a specialized sense:词义的升华 Elevation s a process by which a word moves from a derogatory or neutral sense to a neutral and/ or appreciative sense;词义的降格 Degradation is a process by which a word of reputation slides into a pejorative use,;词义的转移 Transfer is a process by which a word denoting one thing changes to refer to a different but related thing Paper serves as an example. This word formerly denoted an African plant papyrus, which once used to make paper. In modern times, paper is made from rags, wood, straw the like, but the product has retained the same name There is associated transfer
