Presentation transcript:

Split infinitive You need to explain your viewpoint briefly (unsplit infinitive) You need to briefly explain your viewpoint (split infinitive) Because they based their judgments on the grammar of Latin, and since a Latin infinitive is only one word, they thought that its English equivalent needed to be as near to one word as possible.

Phonetics vs. Phonology Phonetics is the study of human speech sounds in general and it involves their production (e.g. place and manner of articulation) and perception. Phonology is the study of sound systems/patterning and is concerned with how the speech sounds combine and function in specific languages.

For example, clear [l] and dark [ł] are phonetically the same in English and Kurdish, but they function as one phoneme in English but as two phonemes in Kurdish. (See also page 35 of your book of phonology (by Peter Roach) from last year)

/l / [l] [ł] English Kurdish /ł/ /l/

Morphology vs. Syntax Morphology is the study of word structure (i.e. the study of how morphemes combine to form words) Syntax is the study of sentence structure (i.e. the study of the rules governing the way words combine to form sentences) VS

Semantics vs. pragmatics Semantics is the study of the meaning of linguistic units Pragmatics is the study of language use (i.e. the study of linguistic phenomena from the point of view of their usage properties and processes) VS

Linguistics -‘syn-’: together with, at the same time ‘synchronic’ - ‘dia-’ : through, across ‘diachronic’ describing describing describing old English middle English modern English alone alone alone (synchronic)(synchronic) (synchronic) Comparing two or all of them to find out changes (diachronic)
