English lexicology aims at investigating and studying the morphological
27、structures of English words and word equivalents, their semantic structures, relations, historical development, formation and usages.English lexicology is a theoretically-oriented course. It 2 chiefly concerned with the basic theories of words in general and of English words in particular. However,
28、it is a practical course as well, for in the discussion, we shall inevitably deal with copious stocks of words and idioms, and study a great many usage examples. Naturally, there will be a large quantity of practice involved.0.2 Its Relation to Other DisciplinesEnglish lexicology itself is a subbran
29、ch of linguistics. But it embraces other academic disciplines, such as morphology, semantics, etymology, stylistics, lexicography. Eflch of them has been established &s a discipline in its own right.Morphology is the branch of grammar which studies the structure or forms of words, primarily through
30、the use of movpheme construct. This is one of the major concerns of lexicology, for we shall discuss the irifleclions of words and word-fonnation and exani- ine how morphemes are combined to form words and words to form sentences.Etym&ogy is traditionally used for the study of the origins and histor
31、y of the form and meaning of words. Modem English is deli ved from the lanRuage$ of early Germanic tribes with a fairly small vocabulary. We shall study how this small vocabulary has grown into a huge modern English vocabulary and explain the changes that have taken place in the forms and meanings o
32、f words.Semantics is the study of meanings of different linguistic levels: lexis, syntax, utterance, discourse, etc. But lexicology will focus on the lexical level. The types of meaning and sense relations such as polysemy, homonymy, synonymy, antonymy, hyponymy and semantic field all belong to the
33、scope of semantic study and constitute an important part of lexicology.Stylistics is the study of style. It is concerned with the users choices of linguistic elements in a particular context for special effects. Among the areas of study： lexis, phonology, syntax, graphology. we shall concentrate on
34、lexis, exploring the stylistic values of words.Lexicography shares with lexicology the same problems: the form, meaning, origins and usages of words, but they have a pragmatic difference. A lexicographer task is to record the lan giiagc as it is used so as to present the genuine picture of words to
35、the reader, providing authoritative reference, whereas the student of lexicology is to acquire the knowledge and information of lexis so as to increase their lexical awareness and capacity of language use.Though English lexicology has a wide coverage of academic areas, our task is definite and consi
36、stent. That is to study English words in different aspects and from different angles.0.3 Methods of StudyThere are generally two approaches to the study of words, namely synchronic and diachronic. From a synchronic point of view, words can be studied nt a point in time, disregarding wliat- ever chan
37、ges might be taking place. For example. the word wife now means a married woman, esp. in relation to her husb/ind*. This is the current meaning. It has an obsolete meaning 1 woman*. which is only preserved in midwife housriuift, etc. However, if we take a diachronic perspective, we will consider the
38、 word historically, looking into its origin and changes in form and meaning. In this light, the word zvife evolved from the Old English form wif, meaning * woman, but later it became specialized in tbc course of development to the modern meaning *a married woman. In our linguistic inquiry into the E
39、nglish vocabulary, though our focus is on the synchronic description of words, we need the diachronic approach as a supplement, for a knowledge of historical develop， ment of (he vocabulary will definitely he of great help to us in our language study.0.4 Aims and Significance of the Courselanguage s
40、tudy involves the study of speech sounds, grammar and vocebultiry. Vocabulary has proved particularly important and certainly the most difficult. In the discussion of the relationship be* tween words and structure, Wilkins1972) asserts, * Without grammar very little can be conveyed, without vocabula
41、ry nothing can be conveyed. * The lexicologist McCarthy (1990) echoed the same message that no matter how well the student learns grammar, no matter how succe漆hilly he masters the sounds of a L2, without words to express a wide range of meanings, communication in that language cannot happen in any m
42、eaningful way. The role of vooibu- lary in communication calls for continuing vocabulary learning. Since English Lexicology deals with English vocabulary, this course will definitely be beneficial.A good knowledge of morphological structure of English words and ryle of word-form at ion will help lea
43、rners develop their personal vocabulary and consciously increase their word power. The information of the historical development and the principles of classification will give them a deeper understanding of word-meaning and enable them to organize, classify and store words more effectively. The understanding of the semantic strncnre; of words, the types of meaning and their sense
