IV. 问答题

1. Old English was mainly Anglo-Saxon spoken by the Germanic tribes called Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. It had a vocabulary of about 50,000 to 60,000 words. It was a highly inflected language just like modern German. It was a synthetic language.

2. A root is the basic form of a word which cannot be further analyzed without total loss of identity. The root, whether free or bound, generally carries the main component of meaning in a word. A stem may consist of a single root morpheme as in “cat” and “teach” or a root morpheme plus one or more affixational

morphemes as in “foolish” and “unacceptable”. Therefore, a stem can be defined as a form to which affixes of any kind can be added, but a root is that part of a word form that remains when all inflectional and derivational affixes have been removed.

3. Acronymy is the process of forming new words by joining the initial letters of names of social and political organizations or special noun phrases and technical terms, Words formed in this way are called initialisms or acronyms, depending on the pronunciation of the words. Initialisms are words pronounced letter by letter, but acronyms formed from initial letters are pronounced as normal words. 4. Conceptual meaning (also known as denotative meaning) is the meaning given in the dictionary and forms the core of word-meaning. Associative meaning is the secondary meaning supplemented to the conceptual meaning. Conceptual meaning, being constant and relatively stable, forms the basis for communication as the same word has the same conceptual meaning to all the speakers of the same language, but associative meaning, being open-ended and indeterminate, is liable to the influence of such factors as culture, experience, religion, and so on. …… 此处隐藏：178字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
