Beschreibung:
Yip Po-Ching is now retired from the University of Leeds where he was a Senior Lecturer in Chinese. He has collaborated with Don Rimmington on 4 other titles for us: Basic Chinese: A Grammar and Workbook; Intermediate Chinese: A Grammar and Workbook , Chinese: A Comprehensive Grammar and most recently Chinese: An Essential Grammar (2nd edition, 2006), and is currently writing a book on Chinese vocabulary
"The Chinese Lexicon" is a detailed study of the words and word combinations used in modern Chinese. Yip Po-Ching defines the general properties of a language's lexicon, or vocabulary, prior to a thorough discussion of the organizational features of the Chinese lexicon. Comparisons are made between Chinese and English, highlighting the similarities and differences between the two lexicons. This fascinating work examines the relationships between word and meanings, and demonstrates the ability of language to combine continuity and change. It surpasses the scope of a dictionary and reveals the systematic nature of vocabulary.
