【應屆上岸～台北台中台南都正】評論

-我的Word formation筆記-(參考就好 若有不確定的還是自己查一下)①Coining/coinage創新字：Invention of totally new words; neologism新義,新詞彙②Borrowing借字：Taking over of words from another language.③Compounding複合字：Two or more words joined together to form a new word.   (home+work=homework) Coumpounding又分兩種(1)、(2)  (1). Exocentric compound/ headless compound: 合起來的字兩者無關連lacks a head word→ For instance, a fat-belly fat person is not a type of belly, but a person with a fat belly. Fat-belly並不是一種belly。”redhead” It is a person with red hair. It is not a person who has a red head. The meaning is external to the words "red" and "head".  (2). Endocentric compound: (AB這個詞是B的一種)  →Example: steamboat as compared with boat is a modified, expanded version of boat with its range of usage restricted, so that steamboat will be found in basically the same semantic contexts as the noun boat. Steamboat是一種boat。Fire station是一種station。④Blending合音：Similar to compounds, but in blending only parts of the words are combined. (motor+hotel=motel) (chunnel=channel+tunnel) (smog=smoke+fog)⑤Clipping簡縮：Abrreviation. Shortening a word by deleting one or more syllables. (hamburger - burger)⑥backformations: a word of one type(usually a noun) is reduced to form a word of another type(usually a verb) Ex: work(from worker)/sculpt(from sculptor)/burgle(from burglar)⑦Conversion/Functional Shift功能的轉換：Assigning an already existing word to a new syntactic category. 詞性被轉換了 (phone電話N – 打電話V)⑧Affixes附加詞綴：(1)prefix：前綴，如pre-, in-, un-等 (2)suffix：後綴，如-tion, -able, -s  (3)infix：出現在中間
