This document discusses fields and collocation in linguistics. It defines paradigmatic relations as vertical substitutions of similar linguistic units, and syntagmatic relations as horizontal co-occurrences. It also discusses semantic fields (sets of related words), color systems, and collocation (words that often go together). Collocation includes lexical collocations of open classes and grammatical collocations of open and closed classes. Idioms also involve special collocational relationships.
It is my PPt about Semantics and Pragmatics; it only ver basic information about it, but hopefully it will be useful for your educational process or useful as your reading resources. You can contact me if you have a suggestion, critique, or maybe we can discuss this topic further.
Componential analysis, procedural steps in componential analysis of meaning , linguistic basis, and Componential analysis contribution to the study of meaning
Deixis is a technical term (from Greek) for one of the most basic things we do with utterances (Yule, 1996, p. 9). It means “pointing via” language. Any linguistic form used to accomplish this “pointing” is called a deictic expression. Deictic expressions are also sometimes called indexical.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
2. Paradigmatic
• Paradigmatic relation are those into which a linguistic
unit enters through being contrasted or substitutable,
in a partical environment, with other similar units.
(vertical relation)
• e.g : i write on the blackboard.
• We can change “i” with another subject. It can be you,
we, they, she, etc.
• We can change “write” with another predicate.
I
write
on
the
blackboard
you
Read
in
the
library
we
go
to
the
concert
she
studies
in
the
classroom
3. Syntagmatic
• Syntagmatic relations are those that a unit contrast
by virtue of its co-occurrence with similar units.
(Horizontal)
• E.G : i write on the blackboard
• We define “i” as a subject, “write” as a predicate,
“on” as a preposition, etc.
I
write
on
the
blackboard
you
Read
in
the
library
we
go
to
the
concert
she
studies

4. Semantic field
• In linguistics, a semantic field is a set of words
grouped by meaning referring to a specific subject.
• E.g : animal
lion, cat, fish, bird, etc
•
colour
blue, red, white, black, etc.
there are two kinds of semantic field
1. Ordered
2. Unordered
5. • Ordered
E.g : the name of month. Begin from january until
desember. And the name of the days.
• Unordered
E.g : animal. So, it can be arrange by alphabetic.
• Admittedly, the scientist will have a frame work for
the classification of metals or mamals.
6. Colour systems
Hjelmsleve proposed a simple one-dimensional
field that is said to be divided up differently by
English and literary Welsh. He was thus able to
place the colours in order.
We have no adjective to say the
Red is more ------- than orange and
Orange is more ------- than yellow.
The odering is not reflected in English as is that of
the days of the week or the months of the years.
7. Colour is not to be accounted for in terms of a
singel dimension.
It involves three variables:
1. Hue (corak)
2. Luminosity or brightness (kilauan)
3. Saturation (kandungan warna)
8. • Berlin and Kay claim that there are eleven
basic categories of colour universally
(white, black, red, green, yellow, blue, brown,
purple, pink, orange and grey),
• moreover these categories are ordered in
a strict way and that colors are first
formed from (white, black)
9. Two terms

10. Collocation
This is concerned more with syntagmatic
relation. A collocation is two or more words that
often go together.
Porzig (1934) the importance of syntagmatic
relation. E.g : bite and teeth, bark and dog, etc.
Firth the importance of knowing a word by
the company it keeps ( collocation).
11. There are about six main types of
collocations: adjective+noun, noun+noun (such as
collective nouns), verb+noun, adverb+adjective,
verbs+prepositional phrase (phrasal verbs), and
verb+adverb.
There are two kinds of collocation :
Lexical collocation ( open class + open class)
Grammatical collocation ( open class + closed
class)
12. Collocation is not simply a matter of association
of ideas.
E.G : white milk ( seems not correct
colocation) in compare to white paint.
13. Every lexeme has collocations, but some are
much more predictable than others.
There are three kinds of collocation:
1. Restricted collocation : e.g: blond with hair
2. Semi-restricted collocation : e.g: spick with span
3. Unrestricted collocation : e.g: letter with
alphabet, spelling, box, post, and write.
14. The words may have more specific meanings in
particular collocation. For instance : the case in
the collocation abnormal or exceptional weather
and abnormal and exceptional children.
It seems difficult to decide whether the
collocation is or is not semantically determined,
because the meaning of one of the collocated
terms seem depend on collocation.
15. Another difficulty is that a word will often
collocate with a number of other words having
something in common semantically. Individual
words or sequence of the words will not
collocate with certain groups of words.
16. There is a restriction on its use with a group of
words that are semantically related. The
restriction is a matter of range. There are three
kinds of collocational restriction :
1. Some are based on the meaning of the items.
2. A word may be used with a whole set of words
that have semantic features in common.
3. Some are collocational in the strictest sense,
involving neither meaning nor range.
17. Idioms involve collocation of a special kind. It
contains the combinations which is opaque.
Threre are several things related to idioms :
Although an idiom is semantically like a single
words it does not function like one.
E.G :
Kick the bucket kicked the bucket.
Red herring
red herrings.
18. There are also plenty of syntactic restriction.
Some idioms have passives, but others do not.
A very common type of idiom in english is
what is usually called the “phrasal verb”. It can
be :
( Verb+adverb) = make up
(Verb+preposition) = go for
(verb+adverb+prep) = put up with
19. There are a partial idioms, where one of the
words has its usual meaning, the other has a
meaning which is peculiar to the particular
sequence. E.g : “make a bed”
It’s difficult to decide whether the word or the
suquence of the words is opaque.
The problem of idioms is involved with the wider
issue of words formation.
Compound e.g : blackboard – black board
Derivation : suffix –able
