This textbook is a systematic and accessible introduction to the
lexicology of modern English. Lexicology is the branch of linguistics
that studies all aspects of the vocabulary of a particular language. The
book provides an account of the sources of modern English words and
studies the development of vocabulary over time. It examines: What are
words? Where do English words come from? How are words made up? How do
words 'mean'? How are words used? How can words be investigated? This
new edition of the best-selling textbook has been revised and updated
throughout. A new chapter has been added, and chapters on dictionaries
and corpus linguistics have been updated. Lists of exercises and
figures, summaries of content at the beginning of each chapter, a
revised list of suggestions for further reading, and a new glossary have
been added. Words, Meaning and Vocabulary is an essential introduction
to lexicology for undergraduate students.
