1、Lexicology and My English Study tongda100005 10000519 居玉洁 Lexicology and My English StudyThe English lexicology is a basic and important subject. Lexicology not only includes the introduction of use of the English words, but also includes the initiations of words. In the process of learning lexicolo

2、gy, with my curiosity,I acquire a lot about English history and its development. I find out that if you dont know the initiation of a language, your knowledge is Blank and weak.In different regions of China and foreign language learning time is different.Backward area may be junior high school just

3、contacted English, some developed areas in the stage of early childhood education have learned foreign languages (mainly English), not to mention the other small language learning.From middle schools systematic English learning to now, most of us take efforts to memory of words, grammar and mood, bu

4、t we ignore the vital and primitive section of English, which is the setting and process. All of teachers praise those students whose English marks are high although their spoken English is terrible.This curriculum, Lexicology is for some certain to tell us much about the English and this part is be

5、yond our mind. Lexicology tells how do modern English revolute from old English. It also narrates what does different periods English consist of? Originally, learning English for me became a burden for reciting qualifying texts and endless new words. This may be understandable because it is impossib

6、le that you are interested in what you have no idea about. My all English teachers educate me that listening,speaking,reading and writing are important ways. Its totally right. No language is mute and non-writing. Before we can write a poem or novel, we must ensure the number of words. A wonderful c

7、hapter needs fascinating words to decorate it. In writing aspect, we often face this difficulty for the lack of word. Those words have similar meanings, but not exact. In addition, the acceleration of amount is based on the daily calculation. Many students is tired of the calculation, they are incli

8、ned to recite those models. For example, if An examination is coming, those idioms can be gathered from a reference book rather than from daily calculation. In other word, we are used to getting packaged knowledge rather than the information found out by ourselves.Here I have to mention the importan

9、ce of autonomous learning, especially in language learning.The process of language learning on the accumulation and application of knowledge, which requires us to keeps interest in language learning and understanding.Some parents and teachers blindly to urge their children to remember those for whom

10、 the obscure language, this is how not science, is absolutely not desirable. There was once a teacher of English will tell a story behind each word.The marvelous lesson for me was to choose the English well-known professional direction.He is always in the form of a story let us remember the words.Th

11、e more uncommon words the more we remember.Sometimes he will according to the relationship between characters to help us remember the words.Now Im on the University found that the teacher was so have cudgeled ones brains.Now our vocabulary learning teachers is a strict and serious old teacher, he ta

12、ught many students, so many students to deeply understand the vocabulary learning the course essence.Bring us a taste of the book highlights, browse the English language development process, a glimpse of English style and charm.English is not a mountain, but a sea of knowledge.With so much unpleasan

13、t learning experience, I think lexicology can made us understand the English language well. Lexicology is divided into nine chapters in this textbook. Vocabulary learning in the introduction to this book first tells us English three development stages: Old English, Middle English and modern English

14、stage.Then respectively expounds the brother stage English main feature the connection between them and the development of relationsThese chapters state vocabulary ,meaning, the relation briefly. For instant, in chapter 3, telling the semantics which refers not only to word meaning but also to sente

15、nce meaning. This kind of sentence s such as: His typewriter has had intentions. My unmarried sister is married to a bachelor. Normally, we are able to understand the meanings of these sentences, but we cannot summarize it with a jargon about the classification of different sentences. Conversely, so

16、me sentences confuses you through complex words. In this case, a dictionary can be helpful. For many majored English students, lexicology leads us to a new place to search new findings. Though the lexicology is a basic subject but quite difficult to handle well. Those common words, many of which may

17、 have tough origins. For example, some Italian words were introduced into English. These words include:balcony, corridor,violin, bankrupt and so on. Apart from the Italian element in modern English, the Greek element in the English vocabulary, like poet, thesis, grammar, physics, etc.Of course there

18、 are other factors that influence foreign language English language.For example, Portuguese and Spanish.This is reflected in English inclusion and its strong flexibility.So the English ability of self-innovation and development.This is a language and not the other.In addition to this again, let us p

19、rove that English and other language common. In fact, the lexicology brings us more than these surprisings than we can imagine. Meantime, the English language has more mysteries and deserve being studied and found out.When it comes to learning of English, I always cant stand my lacking of reading an

20、d words. Since my major is English, our capacity of learning does not superior to other non-major students. Till now, I have just read two English books. I admit that I am not a student loving reading books. I think my reading habits can be steady. It sounds like a joke. In the past, I much a bit li

21、ke read famous books, which are translated into Chinese. When I read English books, I always feel these texts beyond my knowledge range and understand not deeply. Just entered the University for a period of time, every day I with curiosity and their feelings to the library to read the literature of

22、Europe and the United states.But I found the problem.I dont know a lot of new words, and the common saying is very difficult.Time lost to learn English read more fighting spirit.I believe that many English learners will encounter this problem.If their language understanding its loopholes appeared on

23、e after another. So difficult to master the essence of the book.We just read hastily and without thinking, completely miss the point.Later, I read some of the Western cultural background reading book, each historical period understand, grasp the various periods of social characteristics, then in tho

24、se wonderful books to understand the authors thoughts and feelings.The cultural setting of a work is relative to the whole meaning of understanding. Lexicology is a basic knowledge for learning English. The chapter 6 of the textbook containing English idioms narrates vaguely its definition, its sign

25、ificance and its features. In the process of reading English books, I often find some English idioms and become my reading obstacles. Recently, I have read many English books without restraints since I learned the chapter. Much knowledge need repeating and reviewing, then, you can keep it in your mi

26、nd. So, if we can understand and use idioms correctly, our language skills increase constantly.Any language has its unique. As a language of worldwide use English is the language of the esoteric first manifests in its lexical studies, even if I have to vocabulary introduction of some experience, but

27、 in the process of reading problems.For example, differences between American English and British english.In geography, culture, history and customs of the benefits under the influence of English form, evolve into two branches, namely British English and American english.As a result of, development

28、background, in reading English books will inevitably occur misreading of the situation.In the past, many English words are derived from Latin and Greek, the past fifty years, British English and American English, the word family such as cafeteria,highlight,OK,talk show, to enthuse, to television,etc

29、.These reflects American society city war, development and historical presently in ogress.I used to think that British English is the orthodox English, noble and elegant, and American English is full of rogue taste, exaggerate and funny.Like Champlins comedy about the and humble.By means of vocabula

30、ry learning, I realized that the British English and American English are each has its own merits.They represent the different culture and social custom.British English American English calm, humorous magnanimous is also worth learning.Grammatical differences in British English and American English

31、are seldom happen, believe that many English learners are able to observe this point.So the communication difficulties will reduce a lot.The difference is mainly reflected in the number of word pronunciation. Words beginning with wh- in which, when, where,why,etc. Are pronounced differently.Another

32、difference in stress.British English accent is on the first syllable, usually the first and hurries over the rest of the word. American English tends to put the stress on the first syllable but also to put a secondary stress on the latter syllable and pronounces the remaining syllables more distinct

33、ly.The last difference is the word.American English in vocabulary retention of a large number of English vocabulary, but with the development of American society, American English special also show, American English vocabulary is characterized by its conservation and innovation. For example, words created by affixation:anti-brain truster,superstar, debu
