- 1ArbitrarySounds which we have agreed mean the same thing.
The relationship between the form of the word and the meaning is said to be arbitrary. - 2OnomatopoeicMotivated or iconic relationship between a word and its meaning.
- 3Sound symbolismParticular sounds or sequences of sounds rather than whole words may have some association with a meaning.

The relationship between an expression and the thing(s) it picks out in the world. - 5DenotationThe relationship between an expression and the thing(s) it picks out in the world.
- 6SenseLinking to things in the world. Characteristics and defining things of a word.
- 7Abstract nounsSay these things but can't actually get them. Eg peace, unicorn.
- 8ConnotationThe associations a word has.
- 9AntonymyOppositeness
- 10HyponymyHierarchical relation that exists between meanings of words where the denotation of one word is included in the denotation of another.
- 11SynonymySame meanings. The relationship of "sameness of meaning".
- 12Strict SynonymyWill mean the same in all contexts.
- 13Loose synonymyCant swop them in all contexts. Similarity rather than sameness. Eg big and large.
- 14List the different types of synonyms.1. Synonyms distinguished by dialect.
2. Synonyms distinguished by style
3. Synonyms distinguished by technicality.
4.Synonyms distinguished by connotation. - 15DysphemismA deliberately offensive form for a polite term. Eg cock-up for mistake.
- 16Partial synonymyPart of the meaning of the words overlaps, but there is no complete identity of meaning.
Eg crush, mash, pound = breaking down of something. - 17AntonymyOpposite meanings.
- 18What are the three types of Antonymy?1. Gradable antonyms
2. Complementary antonyms
3. Converse or relational opposites. - 19Gradable antonymsOpposites on the same scale
Eg big-small - 20Complementary antonyms- Denys the other thing
-Not on the same scale
Eg dead-alive - 21Converse or relational oppositesSame scale but doesn't deny the other thing. Not gradable.
Eg give-take - 22PolysemyA lexeme which has a range of different but related meanings.
eg. run - meaning 1
- meaning 2 - 23HomonymySound the same with different meanings. Meanings aren't related.
Eg. bank 1- meaning
bank 2 - meaning - 24HomographsWords with the same spelling but different sounds.
Eg lead - 25HomophonesThe same sound but different spellings
Eg. son - sun - 26Componential analysisExamines what aspects of meaning are common to a group of lexemes and what aspects make each lexeme distinct.
- 27Basic componentsStandard list of components which they think are the basic to the overall organisation of the lexicon. Organised hierarchically to show major semantic divisions of words.
- 28Kingship termseg. [+- MALE] to distinguish gender
- 29What 2 things does the matrix do?1. Allows unique analysis of the meaning of each item.
2. Shows the relationship of each item to the whole. - 30Semantic domainA particular area of 'conceptual space' and in order to exemplify this idea, need to distinguish between two types of meaning components. (common and diagnostic)
- 31Common componentsJoint values define a particular semantic domain.
Eg woman and man share common components such as [+-HUMAN] [+-ADULT] - 32Diagnostic componentsComponents which distinguish lexemes from each other in particular domain. Distinctive features.
Eg male is distinguished by [+MALE] from a woman. - 33Componential analysis hyponymy, synonymy and antonymy.Hyponymy =Shares all components of that word and has an additional component to define it. e.g. person = [+- HUMAN] BUT [+MALE] to define the person. Synonymy = Two words which share all their components. Eg begin and commence share the component [+START]. Antonymy = Share all components except for one. Eg man and woman share all components except for [+- MALE].
- 34PrototypeYour perfect example of an object.
Not everyones prototypes are the same. - 35HedgesMaking something closer or further away from the prototype.
Eg A tomato is technically a berry. - 36MorphsSmallest meaning, word.
- 37MorphemesAbstract concept of a morph
- 38AllomorphsSame sound,meaning in different environments.
- 39Name the 3 types of morphemes1. Lexical
2. Derivational
3. Inflectional - 40Lexical MorphemeIndependent. Can stand alone. Can appear without any other morphs attached or they can have morphs attached.
- 41Derivational morphemes.Affixes are attached to the morpheme.
Derive a new word - create new lexemes based on the original lexical morpheme. - 42Inflectional morphemesFor grammar information.Create a new word for of the same lexeme. Eg wait-ed , wait-ing
- 43LexemeA unit of meaning and form that is entered into the lexicon as an independent whole.
- 44Mental lexiconAll the things we know about the vocabulary of a language.
- 45Word vs. lexemeA word is a kind of lexeme but a lexeme is not necessarily a word
- 46Categories of lexemes-Words (simple and complex)
- Compounds
-Phrasal verbs
-Co-ordinate structures
-Idioms - 47WordsSimple - Single lexical morpheme Eg - dog ,go
Complex - Lexical morpheme and one or more inflectional and or derivational morphemes. Eg - dogs, writer - 48CompoundsLexemes which are made up from other lexemes.
Eg greenhouse - 49Phrasal verbsFunction in the same way as single words do.
Eg - give in, make out - 50IdiomsClause or sentence length unit whose meaning cannot be predicted on the basis of its components.
Eg - hitting the nail on the head (the nail and hammer are not really involved) - 51CompoundingTwo independent words and out them together and they mean something else. Creates a new lexeme.
- 52CliticizationBecome phonetically deficit
I am = I'm - 53ParadigmsStill the same kind of word. Inflectional morpheme.
Eg shave, shav-ing, shav-ed - 54ReduplicationRepeating the stem of a word or the whole word to intensify it.
Eg see you now now - 55AffixationType of morpheme, can only occur when attached to another morpheme.
- 56Unitary base hypothesis (UBH)States that affixes of a particular type attach to stems of a given type.
-ness = adj
-less = nouns
-un = verbs
