学习构词法基础知识是非常有好处的,它可以使我们能够轻松认识更多单词,以一种巧妙的方式扩大词汇量,短期内记住更多的单词。今天,就和小编一起来学习构词法的基础知识吧!
英语中的构词法主要有三种,即转化法、合成法和派生法。
在英语中,一个单词由一种词性转化为另一种或几种词性而词形不变的方法叫做转化法。
●They are only allowed to sell soft drinks at school.
●He shouldered his way through the crowd.
●The smell from the kitchen made his mouth water.
●We will try our best to better our living conditions.
●They tried to perfect the working conditions.
●He didn’t know the difference between right and wrong.
●The old in our village are living a happy life.
●How long have you lived there?
●Warm clothes are a must in the mountains.
●Life is full of ups and downs.
●His argument contains too many ifs and buts.
由两个或两个以上的单词连在一起合成一个新词,这种构词法叫做合成法,合成的词叫做合成词。合成词一般看其词,知其意。
