第一部分 Chapter Ⅰ

英语词汇的概论(A general survey of English vocabulary)

Bloomfield 1933 中对词的定义是，每个单词都是最小的自由词。然而这个定义不够全面，存在着缺陷。首先，不是所有的单词都可以独立出现，如 the ，a ， my 这些单词单独出现则没有具体意义。另外，Bloomfield的定义侧重在于语法（syntax）却没有涉及到词的意义。随着词汇学的发展跟完善，人们给词下了较为完整的定义。“词，今指语言组织中的基础单位，能独立运用，具有声音、意义和语法功能。”（《辞海》1984（上）375页，上海辞书出版社）

一种语言中所有的单词汇集起来便构成了该语言的词库。纵观英语的发展历史，我们可以知道，大多数的英语词汇都是外来词，它从拉丁语，法语和希腊语等语言中汲取词汇，不断的扩充自己，为己所用。特别是第二次世界大战之后，英语词汇得到了空前的发展。现代英语词汇快速发展的原因主要有四方面。一是科学技术的快速发展，二是社会经济的全球化，三是英语国家的政治和文化变化，最后是其他文化和语言对英语的强烈影响。

英语词汇是由各种不同类型的单词组成，

《现代英语词汇学》(新版)读后感

《现代英语词汇学》是一本十分全面的英语词汇学书籍，从英语词汇的来源、词的语义，词汇在句子中的应用和词汇在语篇中的分析具体的介绍了词汇学，让认为词汇十分枯燥的我对词汇学有了新的认识，对自己记忆单词和分析短语也十分有帮助。对英语词汇的构成及语义、语境作了比较系统而详细的解释和说明，全书用英语撰写，为我们学习和研究英语词汇提供了不少帮助。笔者读过以上两著，感到受益非浅，尤其是构词部分。因为英语基础并不十分扎实，我先看的是中文版的书，阅读之后，我受益匪浅。
