1.State the relations between the grammatical form and grammatical meaning. The grammatical form can be defined as unity of the sound party and value. Means which serve as way of distinction of grammatical forms of the word, carry the name of grammatical means. Affixes (including zero), fonemny alternations (internal flection), character of an accent, a reduplikation, syntactic words, a word order, intonation can be such means. The grammatical meaning is closely connected with a grammatical form. Yu.S.Maslov defines a grammatical meaning as contents elements, standing behind grammatical rules. Grammatical meanings are presented not only in the word, but in even bigger measure – in combinations of words and in the whole offer. If in the word grammatical meanings are expressed by features of creation of the word, its formal parts (for example, affixes), in the phrase and the offer others join these grammatical means – a word order, intonation, syntactic words, etc. The originality of grammatical meanings consists that, unlike lexical meanings, they aren't called in speech directly, and are expressed in passing, as though accompanying lexical meanings. Sometimes in literature the statement meets that the grammatical meaning is opposed lexical as more abstract to more concrete. It is valid so if to consider lexicon only with concrete value. However the lexical subsystem of language consists not only of concrete lexicon, but also abstract units: love, happiness, evolution, etc.

2. Speak on the Inherent Categories of the English Noun (number)

THE NUMBER OF THE NOUN

  • When we refer to grammatical category of "number", the noun takes two forms:

1. singular

2. plural

  • The general rule is: nouns form the plural by adding the (+s) ending to the singular form. However, there are many exceptions, therefore the nouns are further grouped into:

1. regular plural nouns

2. irregular plural nouns

  • The addition of the (+s) ending to nouns' singular form comes, sometimes, with orthographic changes.

Forming the plural of the nouns.

3. Speak on the Inherent Categories of the English (gender )

THE GENDER OF THE NOUN

  • A noun has a gender which may be expressed explicitly, or implicitly. The gender is important for meaning clarity, and to further "agree the noun in gender" with other sentence elements

  • Nouns' grammatical category of gender is one of the following:

1. masculine: man, boy, workman, he-goat

2. feminine: woman, girl, actress, hen, she-goat

3. neuter: teacher, student, turkey, book, car

5. Speak on the differencialed plural according to Otto Jespersen

Jespersen's most original contribution to grammatical theory is probably his setting up of the two categories of Rank and Nexus. Jespersen in his theory of ranks keeps the parts of speech out of syntax, and instead distinguishes between primaries, secondaries, and tertiaries; thus in a cleverly worded remark, remark is a primary, this being defined by a secondary, worded, which again is defined by a tertiary cleverly, and cleverly for that matter might be defined by a quaternary, e.g. very, but as a rule it is sufficient to consider three ranks only.The term nexus is applied to what may be called sentences and sentences in embryo, thus the dog barks furiously, the door is red, (I heard) the dog bark, (he painted) the door red. A dependent nexus may enter in a sentence as a subject, object, etc., just like a single word, thus the dog bark and the door red are objects in the full sentences. A juncion represents one idea, expressed by means of two or more elements, whereas a nexus combines two ideas. Jespersen has also tried to apply the theory of ranks to nexus, but I shall not go into this question here. The new theory of junction and nexus has proved valuable in bringing together organically related elements which in previous grammatical works were often kept apart.

O. Jespersens theory of three ranks provides logical foundations • for identifying the hierarchy of syntactic relations between elements• joined together in a grammatical unit. With all this, O. Jespersens analysis contains some disputable• points and inconsistency.• The very definition of the notion of rank is not accurate which in• some cases leads to inadequacy of analysis
