1.1. The definition of lexicology
The object of lexicology
What is it - Modern English Lexicology?
It is the science of the English word;
It's an important branch of general philology,
And it's OK to give it a good thought.
It makes you a good expert in morphology
Because it treats the structure of the word.
In speech, it opens for you the words' "psychology"
And shows that they are in full concord.
In short, it turns you into a linguistic prodigy
For you just grasp the nature of the WORD!
The definition of lexicology
Lexicology is the part of linguistics
dealing with the vocabulary of the
language and the properties of words as
the main units of language.(Arnold I.V.)
logos ‘learning’.
The object of lexicology
a study and systematic description
of vocabulary in respect to its origin,
development and current use.
The theoretical value of English
lexicology
forms the study of its vocabulary
meets the demands of many different
branches of applied linguistics, namely of
lexicography, standardization of
terminology, information retrieval,
literary criticism and especially of foreign
language teaching
is important in training a would-be
interpreter of languages
Lexicology and a would-be interpreter
of languages
it helps to stimulate a systematic
approach to the facts of vocabulary and
an organised comparison of the foreign
and native language
it helps to build up the learner’s
vocabulary by an effective selection,
grouping and analysis of new words
Lexicology and the general linguistic
training of every linguist
sums up the knowledge acquired during
all his years at the foreign language
faculty
imparts the necessary skills of using
different kinds of dictionaries and
reference books
prepares for future independent work on
increasing and improving one’s
vocabulary
The practical value of English
lexicology
To study words is very important. Here's
the proof. The results of the experiments.
1.That if your vocabulary is limited your
chances of success are limited.
2.That one of the easiest and quickest
ways to get ahead is by consciously
building up your knowledge of words.
The proof
3.That the vocabulary of the average
person almost stops growing by the
middle twenties.
4.And that from then on it is necessary to
have an intelligent plan if progress is to
be made.
5.A high executive’s skill in words was a
tremendous help in getting him his job
