Seven Kinds of Word Formation--No. 1 Derivation

2021-02-19 英語詞彙深度學習與名著影視欣賞

It is of great significance that we should know about word-forming methods and processes. In general, there are 7 common kinds of word formation, including derivation (派生法), compounding or composition(複合法;合成法); conversion, functional shift or transmutation  (轉化法);blending (拼綴法); back-formation(逆生法);sound imitation/onomatopoeia (擬聲法); formation of words by analogy (類比構詞法).

(一)派生法

派生詞綴與詞根相結合而構成單詞的方法,叫做派生法(derivation)。用派生法構成的詞為派生詞(derivative)。詞根是派生詞的基礎,是詞彙的核心,也是單詞語義的基礎。在同一詞根上可添加不同的詞綴,構成各種不同的詞類。英語詞彙從本質上講,實際上就是26個字母的排列與組合。排列組合的限制條件多種多樣,其中包括固定詞根、詞綴,發音等要求。要儘快突破詞彙大關,就必須全面掌握英語中的常用重點詞根與重點詞綴。總的來說,來自於英語本族語的詞根有450左右,來自拉丁語和希臘語的詞根也只有幾百個。

  • 【易錯點】Seven years old,還是seven year old?
    比如: 7-story (building), 10-day (vacation), 3000-word (article)等等。如果沒有橫線,s就留著:7 stories, 10 days, 3000 words。新聞裡的那句話沒有橫線(seven years old),所以留著s是對的?不對!!!決定有沒有s,關鍵不在於橫線,因為畢竟有人會忘記加橫線。
