- 3. Valency of words The two main linguistic factors to be considered in uniting words into word-groups
- 4. Lexical valency Words are used in certain lexical contexts, i.e. in combination with other words. The
- 5. Lexical valency acquires special importance in case of polysemy as through the lexical valency different meanings
- 6. The range of the lexical valency of words is linguistically restricted by the inner structure of
- 7. The restrictions of lexical valency of words may manifest themselves in the lexical meanings of the
- 8. Syntactic valency - the aptness of a word to appear in different syntactic structures. The minimal
- 9. The adjectives clever and intelligent are seen to possess different syntactic valency as clever can be
- 10. The individual meanings of a polysemantic word may be described through its syntactic valency: Keen +
- 11. INTERDEPENDENCE OF STRUCTURE AND MEANING IN WORD-GROUPS Syntactic structure and pattern of word-groups is the description
- 12. Structural formulas: V+N: (to build houses), V+prp+N: (to rely on somebody), V+N+prp+N: (to hold something against
- 13. Syntactic structure of word-groups Word-groups may be described through the order and arrangement of the component
- 14. Word-groups may be classified according to their headwords into: Nominal: red flower; Adjectival: kind to people;
- 15. Thus the structure of word-groups may also be described in relation to the head-word. In this
- 16. The interdependence of the pattern and meaning of head-words can be easily perceived by comparing word-groups
- 17. Notional member-words are habitually represented in conventional symbols whereas prepositions and other form-words are given in
- 18. Syntactic patterns are classified into: 1. predicative word-groups have a syntactic structure similar to that of
- 19. Classification of word-groups ENDOCENTRIC WORD-GROUPS have one central member functionally equivalent to the whole word-group. In
- 20. 2. EXOCENTRIC WORD-GROUPS have no central component and the distribution of the whole word-group is different
- 21. TYPES OF MEANING OF WORD-GROUPS The lexical meaning – the combined lexical meaning of the component
- 22. The structural meaning of the word-group is the meaning conveyed mainly by the pattern of arrangement
- 23. Interrelation of lexical and structural meaning in word-groups The lexical and structural components of meaning in
- 24. It follows that the meaning of the word-group is derived from the combined lexical meanings of
- 25. Polysemantic and monosemantic patterns Word-groups represented by different structural formulas are as a rule semantically different
- 26. Structurally simple patterns are as a rule polysemantic, i.e. representative of several meanings of a polysemantic
- 27. MOTIVATION IN WORD-GROUPS A word-group is lexically-motivated if the combined lexical meaning of the group is
- 28. The degree of motivation can be different. Between the extremes of complete motivation and lack of
- 29. Completely motivated word-groups are correlated with certain structural types of compound words. Verbal groups having the
- 30. Seemingly identical word-groups are sometimes found to be motivated or non-motivated depending on their semantic interrelation.
- 31. Summary and Conclusions 1. Words put together to form lexical units make up phrases or word-groups.
- 32. 2. Lexical valency is the aptness of a word to appear in various collocations. All the
- 33. Lexical valency of polysemantic words is observed in various collocations in which these words are used.
- 34. Syntactic valency is the aptness of a word to appear in various syntactic structures. All words
- 35. The syntactic valency of a polysemantic word may be observed in the different structures in which
- 36. Structurally, word-groups may be classified by the criterion of distribution into endocentric and exocentric. Endocentric word-groups
- 37. Semantically all word-groups may be classified into motivated and non-motivated. Non-motivated word-groups are usually described as
