l1. M          linguistics,unlike the linguistic study normally known as “grammar” which sets models and rules for language users to follow,is mostly descriptive,i.e.,it attempts to describe the language people actually use,be it “correct” or not.
12. Many languages,including English,have vowels called d     ,which could also be described as a sequence of two vowels.
13. A  r       is often seen as part of a word;it can never stand by itself although it bears clear, definite meaning;it must be combined with another similar form or an affix to form a word.
14. In a complex sentence,the incorporated,or subordinate,clause is normally called an
e       clause.
15. In the English vocabulary there are two categories of words:n       words and borrowed words.
16. “Your money or your life!” aims to threaten,and it is a specific instance of d      ·
17. Back formation refers to a process by which new words are coined from already existing words by taking away an a       thought to be part of the old word,for example,edit derived from editor on the mistaken assumption that “-or” was the agentive suffix.

21. (      )Animal communication system also possesses the feature of displacement. In other words,it can be used to refer to contexts removed from the immediate situations.
22. (      )Vowels usually constitute the nucleus of syllable,so they are typically syllabic. Consonants cannot be syllabic. The same is true of English consonants.
23. (      )X-bar theory and phrase structure rules are similar, and they play the same roles in explaining the internal structures of language.
24. (      )Transformational rules are the rules that we use to generalize the syntactic movement that occurs when a constituent in a sentence moves out of its original place to a new position.
25. (      )A grammatically well-formed sentence may be a semantically ill-formed sentence.
26. (      )While conversation participants nearly always observe the Cooperative Principle, they do not always observe these maxims strictly.
27. (      )The Great Vowel Shift did not lead to the discrepancies between the pronunciation and the spelling system of Moden English.
