精彩摘录
- "In truth, human languages are without exception fully expressive, complete, and logical, as much as they were two hundred or two thousand years ago."
- "Other hypotheses suggested ... that language originated from song as an expressive rather than a communicative need."
- "There are no “primitive” languages—all languages are equally complex and equally capable of expressing any idea. The vocabulary of any lan- guage can be expanded to include new words for new concepts."
- "It appears that the “un-Rule” is most productive for adjectives that are derived from verbs, such as unenlightened, unsimplified, uncharacterized, unauthorized, undistinguished, and so on. It also appears that most acceptable un- words have polysyllabic bases, and while we have unfit, uncool, unread"
- "The plural of geek, when it was a new word in English, was geeks, not *geeken, although we are advised that some geeks wanted the plural of fax to be *faxen, like oxen, when fax entered the language as a shortened form of facsimile."
- "peddle was derived from peddler on the mistaken assumption that the -er was the agentive suffix. Such words are called back-formations. The verbs hawk, stoke, swindle, and edit all came into the language as back-formations—of hawker, stoker, swindler, and editor. Pea was derived from a singular word"
- "Dr. Seuss uses the rules of compounding when he explains “when tweetle beetles battle with paddles in a puddle, they call it a tweetle beetle puddle paddle battle.”"
- "Amsel Greene collected errors made by her students in vocabulary-building classes and published them in a book called Pullet Surprises.4 The title is taken from a sentence written by one of her high school students: “In 1957 Eugene O’Neill won a Pullet Surprise.” What is most interesting about these"

我对语言学研究进程知道的所有几乎都来自这里……
评分这么高啊，个人感觉啰里八嗦，漫画的确好玩但少点干货
嘤嘤嘤终于读完了，我的语言学算是入了门了嘤嘤嘤。
两年了，这辈子不会再碰它了
这本书前半部的大部分理论还是按照转换生成那一派来的
啊，还是蛮难啃的。天师考研用书。基础的板块+社会、文字等部分都很有趣
没啥好说的，但凡你想入门用这本绝对没错
蛮不错的入门书籍。可惜我对语音学实在不感兴趣。哈哈哈，怪不得我的口语和听力不太行😂
这教科书写的真的蛮不错。。。国内的教科书能学习下吗？
