Handbook of Korean Vocabulary
Author: Miho Choo
Publisher: University of Hawaii Press
ISBN: 9780824818159
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
Vocabulary learning is the single most important component of second-language acquisition. In cases where the second language is unrelated to the learner's native tongue, this task presents special challenges because there are typically few clues in a word's form to assist in learning and remembering its meaning. This book offers a solution to this problem for students of Korean. The Handbook is the first ever "root dictionary" of Korean designed for second-language learners. Useful for students at all levels, it contains more than 1,500 vocabulary lists consisting of words built from a shared root. These lists offer a unique and efficient way for students to acquire new words. Upon encountering a word, students can consult the lists for its component roots and discover many other semantically related words built from the same elements. An introduction provides an overview of Korean vocabulary and detailed instructions on how to use the word lists. A pronunciation guide outlines the major principles determining the pronunciation of compounds and other multipart words in Korean.

The Oxford Handbook of the Word
Author: John R. Taylor
Publisher:
ISBN: 0199641609
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 897
Book Description
This handbook addresses words in all their multifarious aspects and brings together scholars from every relevant discipline to do so. The many subjects covered include word frequencies; sounds and sound symbolism; the structure of words; taboo words; lexical borrowing; words in dictionaries and thesauri; word origins and change; place and personal names; nicknames; taxonomies; word acquisition and bilingualism; words in the mind; word disorders; and word games, puns, and puzzles. Words are the most basic of all linguistic units, the aspect of language of which everyone is likely to be most conscious. A 'new' word that makes it into the OED is prime news; when baby says its first word its parents reckon it has started to speak; knowing a language is often taken to mean knowing its words; and languages are seen to be related by the similarities between their words. Up to the twentieth century linguistic description was mainly an account of words and all the current subdivisions of linguistics have something to say about them. A notable feature of human languages is the sheer vastness of their word inventories, and scholars and writers have sometimes deliberately increased the richness of their languages by coining or importing new items into their word-hoards. The book presents scholarship and research in a manner that meets the interests of students and professionals and satisfies the curiosity of the educated reader.

Pages : 1122
Book Description
This handbook is prepared in continuation with previously five workbooks of same category. It will provide some additional study materials for fellow aspirants. Regular practice along with some additional inputs in terms of guided aids is provided for the purpose of self-evaluation. One can evaluate skills by cross checking replies. Types of questions asked in exams are of similar pattern. Contents, in some cases, may differ. These materials are collected from our daily use of English. It would be better if fellow students start talking in English in a group made up of few of the selected friends working in a closed user group. It would be more convenient if such group start interacting through electronic media and through other suitable means. Another fruitful initiative will be following electronic media, news channels, analytics and other sources of information and views so as to collections of vocabulary will be increased. Collection and use of new words will definitely increase the grasping of students on the process of writing and representation of facts in speech. One can even aspire for an enhancement in the linguistic skill by following stories and compositions made by famous authors. Initiatives of any kind will be accepted and quantified in accord to the coverage of selected areas of competencies. The related fields of studies are linked together in such a way that they cannot be addressed individually through focused study materials. We simply put them in a definite order to link up our efforts to gain linguistic competencies of desired types.
