在《前缀一加,词义转变》中提到同族词(见1月17日《中英合谈》)。所谓同族词(family words)便是由同个词根衍生出来的一群实词。例如:art(艺术)名词是art和artist,形容词是artistic,副词是artistically。虽然这四个字的语音、词形、词类和词义都不同,但都来自共同的词根。
同族词既然是由同一词根派生而成,它们之间便有血脉关系,而且在词义上,也常有相似之处。
学习英语词汇时,可以利用同族词这特色把每组词集中起来,用对比方式,辨别每个词的词义和不同用法,然后加以记忆和运用,假以时日,不难水到渠成,词汇丰富。
下面便是两组同族词的意思及其用法:
Ⅰauthorise(动词)授权、批准
authorisation(名词)授权、委任
authoritative(形容词)权威的、命令式的
authority(名词)权力、职权、权威
authorities(名词)当局

⑦ Who gave you authority to implement the new salary scheme?
⑧ Dr Wong is an authority on language teaching.
⑨ The authorities concerned must see to it that the same thing will not recur.
Ⅱclear(形容词)清楚的、明白的、无嫌疑的、债务已清的;
(副词)远离的
(动词)清除、解除。
clearance(名词)清除、许可(证)
(修饰语)清货
clearing (名词)林中空旷的
