语言学考试概要
英语语言学考试范围整理
一、绪论
语言学的概念
语言学的研究范围
几对大体概念
语言的概念
语言的甄别特点(describeanddistinguishallthesoundsusedinlanguage)
Whatislinguistics?
什么是语言学?
Linguisticsisgenerallydefinedasthescientificstudyoflanguage.Itstudiesnotanyparticularlanguage,butlanguagesingeneral.语言学是对语言科学地进行研究的学科。
语言学所要研究的不是某一种特定的语言,而是人类所有语言的特性。
Thescopeoflinguistics语言学研究的范围(注意语言学第二题确实是要回答那个)
Phonetics语音学\Phonology音系学\Morphology形态学\Syntax句法学\Semantics语义学\Pragmatics语用学\Sociolinguistics社会语言学\Psycholinguistics心理语言学\Appliedlinguistics应用语言学

二、音系学
语言的声音媒介
什么是语音学
发音器官
音标……宽式和严式标音法
英语语音的分类
音系学和语音学
语音、音位、音位变体
音位对立、互补分部、最小对立
几条音系规那么
超切分特点
Twomajormediaofcommunication:
speechandwriting
Thelimitedrangeofsoundswhicharemeaningfulinhumancommunicationandareofinteresttolinguisticstudiesarethephonicmediumoflanguage.用于人类语言交际的声音称为语音,这些数量有限的一组语音组成了语言的声音媒介。
Phonetics语音学:

Threebranchesofphonetics:
articulatoryphonetics发音语音学(mosthighlydeveloped),auditoryphonetics听觉语音学andacousticphonetics声学语音学

17)thetipofthetongue:
舌尖
18)theupperfrontteeth:

19)theroofofthemouth:

音标……宽式和严式标音法
InternationalPhoneticAlphabet(IPA)
Thevowels(monophthongsanddiphthongs)元音(单元音&双元音)
Theconstants辅音
Broadtranscription:
transcriptionwithletter-symbolsonly.(indictionariesandteachingtextbooks)
用一个符号来表示一个语音的标音方式叫做宽式标音法,这种音标法常见于词典和教科书。
Narrowtranscription:
thetranscriptionwithdiacritics.
但事实上,同一语音在不通的语音环境中的发音不尽相同,比如Pit和spit中的/P/音发音就不一样。
在宽式标音的基础上,再用变音符号表示同一语音在不同的语音环境下不同发音的标音法叫做窄式标音法。

Phonology音系学
Phonologyandphonetics
音系学和语音学
Phoneticsisofageneralnature;itisinterestedinallthespeechsoundsusedinallhumanlanguages.
语音学研究的是人类所有语言的语音,旨在对语音进行描述和分类。
Phonologyisinterestedinthesystemofsoundsofaparticularlanguage;itaimstodiscoverhowspeechsoundsinalanguageformpatternsandhowthesesoundsareusedtoconveymeaninginlinguisticcommunication.
音系学研究的重点是特定语言的语音体系,语音表达意义作用。
Phone,phonemeandallophone
语音,音位,音位变体
Phones,whichcanbesimplydefinedasthespeechsoundsweusewhenspeakingalanguage.
语音是语音学研究的单位,是一个个具体的声音。
Phonologyisconcernedwiththespeechsoundswhichdistinguishmeaning.
音位是音系学研究的单位,是抽象的概念,每一个音位是一组语音特点的集合体,音位具有区别意义的作用。
Thedifferentwhichcanrepresentaphonemeindifferentphoneticenvironmentsarecalledtheallophonesofthatphoneme.
音位变体是一个音位在特定的语音环境力的具体表现,同一音位在不同语音环境里表现为不同的变体,也确实是语音。
Phonemiccontrast,complementarydistribution,andminimalpair
音位对立,互补散布,最小对立对
ropeandrobethat/P/and/b/canoccurinthesameenvironmentsandtheydistinguishmeaning;thereforetheyareinphonemiccontrast.
能够出此刻不同语音组合中的同一为止,产生意义不同。

Whentwodifferentformsareidenticalineverywayexceptforonesoundsegmentwhichoccursinthesameplaceinthestrings,thetwowordsaresaidtoformaminimalpair.[pen]and[ben]
最小对立对指出此刻同一名置上的一个音之外其余都相同的两个语音组合。
