1. Definition of lexicology
‘Lexis’ (of Greek

origin) = ‘word, phrase’
‘logos’ (of Greek origin) = ‘learning, branch

of knowledge’
Lexicology – study of words

Lexicon (then)
Appeared in the 17th century

that time it referred to a book containing a selection

of language words and meanings, arranged in alphabetical order.

Synchronic approach

Diachronic approach
Greek dia ‘through’

Слайд 15Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina Harrer
The synchronic approach
is concerned with the

vocabulary of a language as it exists at a given

time, for instance, at the present time.
It is special descriptive lexicology that deals with the vocabulary and vocabulary units of a particular language at a certain time.

study being the English vocabulary as it exists at the present time.

The English historical lexicology

the origin of English vocabulary units,
their change and development,

and extralinguistic factors modifying their structure, meaning and usage within the history of English.

Distinction between 2 approaches
Serves the purpose

of investigation what in real language is inseparable.
So the vocabulary

can be studied synchronically, i.e. in the context of the processes through which it grew, developed and acquired its modern form.

Слайд 20Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina Harrer
The opposition of 2 approaches
is disputable

as the vocabulary (as well as the word) is NOT

only what it is NOW, at this particular stage of the language development, but, also, what it WAS centuries ago and HAS BEEN throughout the history.

Social linguistics
The vocabulary of a language

is never stable, never static, but is constantly changing, growing

and decaying.
The changes in the vocabulary of a language are due both to linguistic and extralinguistic causes or to a combination of both.

in science and technology are reflected in the language.

4. Branches of lexicology
Etymology - the

study of lexical history. It investigates the origins of individual

lexemes, the affinities they have had to each other, and how they have changed in meaning and in form to reach their present state.

Examples of etymology: sly
Sly – the

word came into Middle English from Scandinavian, where the dominant

meaning was ‘cunning’, with its implication of special knowledge of wisdom.
Sly is also referred to sleight ‘dexterity’ and slay originally meant ‘dexterous with hammer’

Salary and sausage (origin)
Salary came into

English via French from Latin, where salarium meant ‘salt-money’ (given

to the soldiers to buy salt)
Sausage also came via French from Latin, where salsicium was smth made from salted meat. Salt is the common element, seen also in sauce and salad.

Morphology
Morphology – study of the structure

of words.
Morphology is divided into 2 domains: lexical (or derivational)

morphology and inflectional (or grammatical morphology).

Слайд 33Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina Harrer
Lexical morphology
Studies the way in which

new items of vocabulary can be built up out of

combinations of elements as in

un-forgett-able
tele-scop-ic
Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina HarrerLexical morphologyStudies the way in which new items of vocabulary can be built

Слайд 34Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina Harrer
Inflectional morphology
studies the way words vary

in their form in order to express a grammatical contrast

(as in the case of horses where the ending marks plurality) or where the ending marks the 3rd person singular form of the verb
e.g. do-does, speak-speaks

Semantics
Semantics – the study of meaning.
Modern

approaches are characterized by 2 different levels of study: syntagmatic

and paradigmatic.

Слайд 36Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina Harrer
On the syntagmatic level
The semantic structure

of the word is analyzed in its linear relationships with

neighboring words in connected speech.
Therefore, the semantic characteristics of the word are observed, described and studied on the basis of its typical contexts, i.e. semantics studies combinability or collocability of words.
Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina HarrerOn the syntagmatic level	The semantic structure of the word is analyzed in its

Слайд 37Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina Harrer
On the paradigmatic level
the word is

studied in its relationships with other words in the vocabulary

system.
So, a word may be studied in comparison with other words of similar meaning, of opposite meaning, of different stylistic characteristics.
Compiled by I.A. Cheremisina HarrerOn the paradigmatic level	the word is studied in its relationships with other words

Phraseology
Phraseology is the branch of lexicology

specializing in word groups which are characterized by stability of

structure and transferred meaning.
e.g. To show the white feather (струсить)
To hit the headlines (оказаться в новостях)
at first hand (из первых рук)

of dictionary-compiling.
Lexicography is a practical application of lexicology so that

the dictionary-maker is guided in his work by the principles laid down by the lexicologist as a result of his investigations.
