Comment on the following groups of words to illustrate semantic features and grammatical features of compounds. Group 1 "a green hand", "flowerpot" Group 2 "bad-mouth", "new-borns"
选项
答案
Compounds are different from free phrases in semantic unity. Every compound should express a single idea just as one word. For instance, "a green hand" is an "inexperienced person", not a hand that is green in colour. The meaning of such example cannot be easily inferred from the two components of the compound. Nevertheless, a lot of compounds are transparent, that is, the meaning can be inferred from the separate elements of compounds. The compound "flowerpot" can be an example. But the two elements are inseparable and the change of element will result in the loss of original identity. A compound tends to play a single grammatical role in a sentence, for example, a verb, a noun, or an adjective. "Bad-mouth" used as a verb can take the third person singular "-s"and the past tense marker "-ed", e. g. ,"He bad-mouthed me. " Compounds can show their plural forms by taking inflectional "-s" at the end, e. g. , "new-borns". Of course, there are exceptions such as brothers-in-law, lookers-on. In spite of this their single grammatical role is apparent.
