Derivational affixes are affixes added to other morphemes to create new words.

57. What is grammatical meaning of a word? Give an example to illustrate your point. Grammatical meaning refers to that part of the meaning of the word which indicates grammatical concept or relationships, such as part of speech of words, singular and plural meanings of nouns, tense meaning of verbs and their inflectional forms.

58. What type of transfer is experienced for the word in bold type?

Abstract to concrete

59. Decide whether the following statement is true or false, based on your understanding of the stylistic features of idioms. Stylistically speaking, most idioms are neither formal nor informal.

False. Idioms are generally felt to be informal and some are colloquialisms and slang, therefore inappropriate for formal style. Occasionally, we find idioms which are extremely formal and used only in frozen style.

Ⅵ.Analyze and comment on the following. Write your answers in the space given below.(20%){0832英语词汇学作业}.

60. Analyze and comment, with a diagram, on the italicized words increase, extend and expand in the following three sentences based on the concept of discrimination of synonyms.

[a] The company has decided to increase its sales by ten per cent next year.

[b] The owner of the restaurant is going to extend the kitchen by ten feet this year.

[c] The metal will expand if heated.

Synonyms may differ in the range and intensity of meaning. Some words have a wider range of meaning than others. Increase, extend and expand share a general sense but have different implications. Each of the three terms expresses a different kind of enlargement. This can be illustrated by the following graphs.

61. State the roles of context in determination of word meaning. Illustrate your points with examples.

Context plays a vital role in the following three aspects.

1) Elimination of ambiguity. When a word with multiple meanings used in inadequate context, it creates ambiguity, e.g. “He is a hard businessman.” The word hard in this context can mean both “hard-working” and “difficult”. The context fails to narrow down the meaning so that it is difficult for the reader to decide what exactly the speaker means.

2) Indication of referents. English has a large number of words such as now/then, here/there, I/you, this/that, which are often used to refer directly to people, time, place, etc. Without clear context, the reference can be very confusing. For example, the word now always means the time of speaking, naturally referring to a past time when the speech took place in the past or a present moment if the person is speaking.

3) Provision of clues for inferring word meaning. Context may prove extremely valuable in guessing the meanings of new words. Context clues vary a great deal but can be summed up as follows: .definition, explanation, example, synonym, antonym, hyponym, relevant details, and word structure
