英语词汇学Chapter 4 Word Formation Ⅱ构 词 Ⅱ Word-formation: affixation (30%-40%),词缀法 compounding (28%-30%),复合法 conversion (26%),转类法 Shortening (clipping , acronymy ) (8%-10%),缩略法 (截短法，首字母缩略法) blending and other means (1%-5%) 拼缀法和其他方法 Not all the words that are produced by applying the rule are acceptable. 4.1 Affixation 词缀法 Affixation is generally defined as the formation of words by adding word-forming or derivational affixes to stems. This process is also known as derivation, for new words created in this way are derived from old forms. The words formed in this way are called derivatives. 词缀法可定义为通过给词干加结构词词缀或派生词缀构成新词的一种构词方法。用这种方法构成的词叫派生构词 。 4.1.1 Prefixation前缀法 Prefixation is the formation of new words by adding prefixes to stems. 前缀法是在词干上加上前缀构词的一种方法。 Prefixes do not generally change the word-class of the stem but only modify its meaning. 前缀一般不改变词干的词类，只对词干的意义进行修饰。 Accordingly, we shall classify prefixes on a semantic basis into nine groups: Negative prefixes, Reversative prefixes, Pejorative prefixes, Prefixes of degree or size, Prefixes of orientation and attitude, Locative prefixes, Prefixes of time and order, Number prefixes, Miscellaneous prefixes. -因此我们可以从语义的角度把前缀分为 9 类：表示否定意义的前缀，表示逆向意义的前缀，表示贬义的前缀，表示程度、大小等意义的前缀，表示倾向和态度等意 义的前缀，表示方位意义的前缀，表示时间和顺序等意义的前缀，表示数字的前缀，其他种类意义的前缀。 4.1.2 Suffixation后缀法 Suffixation is the formation of new words by adding suffixes to stems.后缀法是在词干加上后缀来构成新词。 Suffixes have only a small semantic role, their primary function being to change the grammatical function of stems. In other words, they mainly change the word class. 后缀的只有很小语义作用，其主要功能是改变词干的语法功能。换句话说，他们主要是改变词性。 1.Noun suffixes 名词后缀 1) Denominal nouns:由名词转化来的名词 a. Concrete,具体名词 b. Abstract. 抽象名词 2) Deverbal nouns:由动词转化来的名词 a. The following suffixes combine with verb stems to create largely nouns denoting people, -ant，-ee，-ent，-er（-or） 下面这组后缀加在动词词干上构成新词，主要表示人. b. Suffixes of this group added to verb stems to produce largely abstr
