36. the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis: a hypothesis developed by Benjamin Lee Whorf on his and Edward Sapir’s anthropological research and experience with Hopi, an American Indian language. It suggests that ‘our language helps mould our way of thinki ng and, consequently, different languages may probably express speakers’ unique ways of understanding the world’. Following this argument, two important points could be captured in this theory. On the one hand, language may determine our thinking patterns; on the other, similarity between languages is relative. The greater their structural differentiation is, the more diverse their conceptualization of the world will be. For this reason, this hypothesis has alternatively been referred to as linguistic determinism and linguistic relativity—a view

which “was first expounded by the German ethnologist, Wilhelm von Humboldt”.

37. Conversational Implicature: it was proposed by Grice, Grice’s aware that speakers do not always follow CP and its maxims. In fact, they often violate them. Whether the speaker follows or violates these maxims, he produces some implicature – a kind of extra meaning that is not contained in the utterance. Particularly, when any of the maxims is blatantly violated that the hearer knows that it is being violated, then conversational implicatures arise.

38. IC analysis, immediate constituent analysis, may be defined as: the analysis of a sentence in terms of its immediate constituents---word groups (or phrases), which are in tern analyzed into the immediate constituents of their own, and the process goes on until the ultimate constituents are reached.

39. The London School generally refers to the kind of linguistic scholarship in England. The representatives are Malinowski, Firth and Halliday. The all stressed the importance of context of situation and the system aspect of language. Thus, London School is also known as

systemic linguistics and functional linguistics.

40 An affix is the collective term of the type of formative that can be used only when added to another morpheme(the root or stem).

e.g.: prefix para-, mini-

suffix -ise, -tion

infix foot/feet, goose/geese

41. synonymy: is the technical name for the sameness relation. Such as, buy and purchase.

antonymy is the name for oppositeness relation. Such as husband and wife, buy and sell.

42. The syllable is an important unit in the study of phonology. In English, a word may be monosyllabic (with one syllable, like cat and dog) or polysyllabic (with more than one syllable, like transplant or festival). A syllable usually consists of an onset, a nucleus or peak, and a coda. The nucleus and the

coda are called the rhyme.

O(nset) R(hyme)

N(ucleus) Co(da)

k l a p s

All syllables must have a nucleus but not all syllables contain an onset and a coda. A syllable that has no coda is called an open syllable while a syllable with coda is known as closed syllable.

语言学纲要的简答、论述题

一.简答题 1.广义上的应用语言学 答:指的是运用理论语言学的理论、方法和基础研究成果,来阐明、解决其他学科领域中出现的各种与语言相关的问题。包括语言教学理论、语言学的一般应用研究成果和语言学的跨面研究成果。 2.结构主义的特点 答:①把语言确定为研究对象;②重视共时语言的研究;③重视口语的研究;④重视详细描写语言的结构;⑤用联系和系统的观点观察语言要素,语言是一个完整的符号系统⑥注重对立成分的分析。 3.语言的系统性 答:①首先体现在它是一个层级体系;②还体现在语言符号各层次之间的根本关系上——语言成分的组合关系和聚合关系以及二者彼此之间的关系。 4.语言与言语的关系 答:㈠区别:①语言是社会的言语是个人的②语言有限,言语无限③语言是现成的,言语是临时创造的;㈡联系:一方面,语言以言语的形式存在,因为语言离不开言语,没有说话和说出的话就没有语言;另一方面,言语离不开语言,没有大家认可的词语和语法规则就无法说话。二者相互依赖,相互依存。 5.元音与辅音的区别 答:①发元音时声带颤动、气流在发音通道上不受阻碍,发辅音时声带颤动或不颤动、气流在发音通道的一个或多个部位上受到阻碍;②发元音时,发音器官的各部位均衡紧张;辅音则形成阻碍的部位特别紧张;③发元音时,呼出的气流较弱,拉长音而音质不变,辅音一般不可以拉长音,气流较强。 6.语音的社会性质 答:社会性是语音的本质属性。①世界上没有一种语言采纳了100以上的音素的,各种语言使用哪些语言完全由其社会成员约定的;②语言表达意义,但什么样的声音形式与什么样的意义相结合;③每一语言或方言都有自己独特的语音系统,从语音的物理性质和生理性质分析得出德尔某一语音现象或语音成分,在不同系统中可能有不同作用和不同心里感知。 7.语法构词法 答:就是利用语言中原有的语素材料构造新词。其方法有复合、附加、内部屈折、重音位置变化、词组缩简等。 8.研究语言演变的凭借 答:①通过对照方言和亲属语言可以获知;②通过对记录了语言的过去状态的文字的分析可以获知;③通过对古代的借词的分析可以获知。 9.构词法与构形法的区别 答:构词法是构成新词的方法,构成的新词的词汇意义与各构词成分的词汇意义有关但并不相同。构形法虽然与词的结构有关,但它并不构成新词,不引起词汇意义的改变,只是表

语言学概论复习资料:简答与论述题

语言学概论复习资料:简答与论述题(1) 1、简要叙述语言的客观存在形式和人的主观认识的关系? 答:语言的客观存在形式和人的主观认识之间不是完全相同的。语言的客观存在形式是非常复杂的,具体的发音人人不同,一个词具体的表达方式也可以不同。例如,“说话”一词,不同的人可以在中间加入不同的助词“了、着、过”等;还可以加入不同的语气词“呢、啊、嗯”等。而把这一词记录为“说话”已经是一种主观的概括。语言学家研究的只是经过语言学家主观概括和不同程度上理想化和简单化了的语言。语言学的研究就是要拉近我们的主观认识与客观事实的距离。 2、书面语产生的重大社会意义? 答:口语是转瞬即逝的,在没有书面语的社会里,由于受时间和空间的限制,人们的交际范围极其有限,经验和知识的传授和积累极其缓慢。书面语的产生克服了这种局限,极大地加快了人类社会经验和知识的传授和积累的速度和传播范围,从而大大加快了社会发展的步伐。现代生物考古学表明,人类文明的发展在书面语产生后大大地加快了。因此,世界各国都把书面语的产生作为文明史的开端。 3、论述口语和书面语的联系和区别? 答:任何一种语言总是先有口语,后有书面语,而且大多数语言在其存在的历史上只有口语而没有相应的书面语。任何一种书面语又都只能在口语的基础上产生,并且或迟或早总是要随着口语的演变而演变。任何一种语言都有自己的口头存在形式,但是古往今来只有极少数语言在口语的基础上产生了相应的书面语。因此,口语是第一性的,书面语是第二性的。但是,书面语既不是口语绝对忠实的记录,也不是口语机械的复制品。口头交际行为总是在一定的社会背景和语言环境中进行的,而且交际双方或各方在进行口头交际的同时常常伴随着各种面部表情、手势和体态,还有各种不同的口气和语调,而书面语一般没有记录这些成分,而只记录了词语,即口语传递信息和思想感情的关键成分,同时,书面语是经过推敲的,因此更简练、精确。另一方面,书面语为了补充口语交际时的语境等非语言成分,又不得不添加一些成分。确切地说,书面语是经过加工、提炼和发展了的口语的书面形式。另外,书面语一旦在口语的基础上产生以后,就具有相对的独立性,就具有相对独立的发展史。书面语由于克服了口语在空间和时间两方面的局限,就有可能积累起比口语更丰富的语汇,更精密复杂的语法结构,更多样化的表达方式,从而反过来影响和促进口语的发展。书面语和口语在多数情况下一般是基本一致的。即指基本的语言成分是一致的。如果书面语和口语严重脱节,那么,或迟或早最终还是要适应口语的演变而发生变化。因为口语是第一性的,因此,研究语言首先应研究口语,并且当书面语和口语发生严重分歧时,应以口语为准。决不能由于重视

语言学纲要简答题及答 案精编版 MQS system office room 【MQS16H-TTMS2A-MQSS8Q8-MQSH16898】

1、为什么说语言是人类最重要的交际工具。 A、语言的人类最重要的交际工具:人类传递信息,进行交际和交流思想,除了使用语言外还可以使用文字、旗语、红绿灯、电报代码、数学符号以及身势、表情等,在一定场合使用,可以弥补语言的一些不足,但是这些交际工具使用范围有限,有的仅用于特定的范围,最重要的是,这些交际工具,都离不开语言,都是在语言的基础上产生的,是辅助语言进行交际的,没有语言,这些手段的存在没有任何意义。 B、其次这是由语言的自身特征决定的,语言即是声音的传播,是所有工具当中使用起来最简便快速,容量最大,效果最好的工具,其它任何联系沟通手段所不能代替的,所以语言是人类最重要的交际工具。 2、语言和思维有怎样的关系? 语言离不开思维,思维也离不开语言,语言是表达自己思想都和理解别人思想的工具,是思维存在的物质形式;思维活动的成果依靠语言得以巩固和存在,思维的发展、认识能力的提高要依靠语言;人脑半球的实验依据证明思维不能脱离语言而存在。 语言和思维又相互区别; 二者的功能不同:语言是社会成员之间能相互交际;思维帮助人们认识客观世界和能动地改造客观世界 二者的规律不同:语言具有民族特性;思维是客观现实规律的反映,具有全人类共同性 二者的范畴不同:语言的单位主要是字词句等,思维的单位表现为概念、推理等3、什么是符号?符号应具备哪些条件?举例说明。 符号:一个社会全体成员共同约定用来表示某种意义的记号、标记。例如:信号灯、旗语、上课铃、盲文等 符号应具备三个条件:符号由形式和内容两部分组成 形式和内容之间没有必然的联系 符号对于符号使用者来说具有强制性 4、语言符号的任意性特点是不是说我们可以任意运用不同的语音形式表示事物?任意性是就语言符号的形式和内容的即音和义的结合是约定成俗的,任意性特点是就语言起源时的情况来说的 指最初用什么样的语音形式代表客观事物现象这个意义内容是任意的。但是这并不意味着人们可以对语音的形式作随意更改。符号的音义关系一经社会约定而进入交际之后,它对人们就有强制性,每一个人都只能乖乖地接受它,个人绝不能随意更改,也无权更改,各个成员都只能接受社会已经约定的符号。所以,语言符号的任意性和强制性是对立的统一,人们不能借口任意性而随意更改已经约定的音义关系。约定俗成前可以说有任意性,约定俗成后则具有了强制性。假如个人可以根据自己的好恶来使用语言,如果这种任意性没有任何规定性,没有强制性,各人可以自说自话,乱说一套,比如把“死”说成“活”,把“高”说成“矮”,把“香”说成“臭”,等等,那么结果是谁也听不懂谁的话,语言交际就无法进行,语言也就不可能成为人类最重要的交际工具了。 5、语音有哪些属性?什么是语音的本质属性? 语音具有生理属性(呼吸器官、发音器官、共鸣器官)、物理属性(音高、音强、音长、音色)和社会属性,社会性是语言的本质属性 6、什么是音位?怎样确定音位?

英语语言学复习资料 简答题

1.1. What is language? “Language is system of arbitrary vocal symbols used for human communication. It is a system, since linguistic elements are arranged systematically, rather than randomly. Arbitrary, in the sense that there is usually no intrins ic connection between a work (like “book”) and the object it refers to. This explains and is explained by the fact that different languages have different “books”: “book” in English, “livre” in French, in Japanese, in Chinese, “check” in Korean. It is symb olic, because words are associated with objects, actions, ideas etc. by nothing but convention. Namely, people use the sounds or vocal forms to symbolize what they wish to refer to. It is vocal, because sound or speech is the primary medium for all human l anguages, developed or “new”. Writing systems came much later than the spoken forms. The fact that small children learn and can only learn to speak (and listen) before they write (and read) also indicates that language is primarily vocal, rather than writt en. The term “human” in the definition is meant to specify that language is human specific. 1.2. What are design features of language? “Design features” here refer to the defining properties of human language that tell the difference between human language and any system of animal communication. They are arbitrariness, duality, productivity, displacement, cultural transmission and interchangeability 1.3. What is arbitrariness? By “arbitrariness”, we mean there is no logical connection between meanings and sounds (see I .1). A dog might be a pig if only the first person or group of persons had used it for a pig. Language is therefore largely arbitrary. But language is not absolutely seem to be some sound-meaning association, if we think of echo words, like “bang”, “crash”, “roar”, which are motivated in a certain sense. Secondly, some compounds (words compounded to be one word) are not entirely arbitrary either. “Type” and “write” are opaque or unmotivated words, while “type-writer” is less so, or more transparent or motivated than the words that make it. So we can say “arbitrariness” is a matter of degree. 1.4.What is duality? Linguists refer “duality” (of structure) to the fact that in all languages so far investigated, one finds two levels of structure or patterning. At the first, higher level, language is analyzed in terms of combinations of meaningful units (such as morphemes, words etc.); at the second, lower level, it is seen as a sequence of segments which lack any meaning in themselves, but which combine to form units of meaning. According to Hu Zhanglin et al. (p.6), language is a system of two sets of structures, one of sounds and the other of meaning. This is important for the workings of language. A small number of semantic units (words), and these units of meaning can be arranged and rearranged into an infinite number of sentences (note that we have dictionaries of words, but no dictionary of sentences!). Duality makes it possible for a person to talk about anything within his knowledge. No animal communication system enjoys this duality, or even approaches this honor. 1.5.What is productivity? Productivity refers to the ability to the ability to construct and understand an indefinitely large number of sentences in one’s native langua ge, including those that has never heard before, but that are appropriate to the speaking situation. No one has ever said or heard “A red-eyed elephant is dancing on the small hotel bed with an African gibbon”, but he can say it when necessary, and he can understand it in right register. Different from artistic creativity, though, productivity never goes outside the language, thus also

语言学纲要修订版练习题及答案

第一章 一、填空 语言的功能 1、语言的功能包括(社会)功能和(思维)功能。 2、语言的社会功能包括(信息传递)功能和(人际互动)功能。 3、在各种信息传递形式中,语言)是第一性的、最基本的手段。( 4、人的大脑分左右两个半球,语言功能及计数、推理能力等由(左)半球掌管,音乐感知、立体图形识别等能力由(右)半球制约。 5、儿童语言习得一般经过(独词句)阶段和(双词句)阶段,这是儿童学话的关键两步。二、判断正误(对)1、文字是建立在语言基础之上的再编码形式。(错)2、当说话者陈述一个客观事实时,话语中不具有主观性。(错)3、书刊上的话语不具有人际互动功能。(对)4、抽象思维要以语言为形式依托。(错)5、布洛卡区在大脑的右半球前部。(错) 6、聋哑人不会说话,所以不具有抽象思维的能力。(对) 7、不同语言结构的差异体现出思维方式的不同。(错) 8、汉语名词没有数的变化,所以汉语没有区别单数和多数的概念。三.思考题1、为什么说语言是人类最重要的信息传递的手段?除了语言之外,人们还使用其他的信息传递工具:(1)文字、旗语、红绿灯、电报代码、数学符号、化学公式等辅助性的交际工具(2)体态语等伴随性的副语言交际工具,(3)盲文、手语等类语言交际工具。但这些交际工具或者使用范围的有限,或者运用效率低下,或者使用频率不高,很难与语言这种交际工具相提并论。文字记录语言,打破了语言交际中时间和空间的限制,在社会生活中起着重大的作用,中小学语文教学主要就是教学生识字、阅读、写作。但是,文字在交际中的重要性远不能和语言相比。一个社会可以没有文字,但是不能没有语言;没有语言,社会就不能生存和发展。文字是在语言的基础上产生的,只有几千年的历史。在文字产生以前,语言早已存在,估计有几十万年。今天世界上没有文字的语言比有文字的语言多得多。文字产生以后要随着语言的发展而演变,它始终从属于语言,是一种辅助的交际工具。总之,在上述的种种信息传递工具当中,身势等伴随动作是非语言的交际工具;旗语之类是建立在语言,文字基础之上的辅助性交际工具;文字是建立在语言基础之上的一种最重要的辅助交际工具;语言是人类最重要的信息传递工具。 2、语言的人际互动功能表现在哪些方面?说话者在传递客观经验信息的同时,也在表达着主观的情感、态度和意图,寻求听话者的反馈。而受话者在接收说话者传递的客观经验信息的同时,也了解了说话者的主观情感态度,从而做出回应。这样语言就成为说话者和听话者间交际互动的工具。例如:张三和李四同时在教室看书,张三坐在窗子边的位置,李四坐在中间位置。 A.李四说:“今天气温很低。” B.张三说:“我马上关上。” A、B 的对话表达了一种委婉的请求。李四说“今天气温很低”的目的并不是反映今天的天气,而是向坐在窗户边的张三请求将窗户关上。 3、为什么说思维离不开语言?思维需要语言(1)语言是人类思维的工具,思维活动必须用语言作手段(2)语言是保存思维成果的媒介。思维成果必须依靠语言的巩固才能得以保持。(3)语言可帮助思维逐步深化(4)语言可帮助思维条理化(5)语言可帮助传递思维成果。思维的成果靠语言才能表达出来,使听读者了解。 4、语言思维功能的生理基础是什么,有哪些表现?人类的大脑的左右半球的分工是人类所特有的。人类以外的动物,没有这样的分 2 工,没有专门管语言的“左半球” ,因此它们没有逻辑思维的能力,也掌握不了语言。大脑中人类特有的语言功能区(1)说话中枢,也称布洛卡区,在大脑左半球前部,是19 世纪60 年代,法国神经解剖学家保罗·布洛卡(Paul Broca)发现的。这一区域受到损伤就会得失语症,丧失说话能力,但基本能听懂别人的话。(2)书写中枢,也在大脑左半球前部,靠近布洛卡
