Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 2, University of Tubingen (Seminar für Anglistik), course: Historical Grammar, 15 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: In the following essay the development of strong verbs in English will be examined, starting in the Old English period and reaching up to Modern English times. The different classification systems and conjugational patterns that apply for the periods will be compared. The main task of the essay will be to find out similarities differences and parts which have remained the same in these systems. In the course of the essay, the Old English system of strong verbs will be compared to the Middle English system and finally the Modern English system. In order to do this, it will be necessary to describe the classification system of Old English strong verbs in detail as well as pointing out the conjugational patterns that apply for these verbs. In the next section the same will be done for Middle English strong verbs. In that section changes will already have to be mentioned. Afterwards, an entirely different classification of Modern English irregular verbs as suggested by Quirk & Greenbaum will be introduced. In addition the conjugational system of Modern English verbs will be described. Following this mainly descriptive first part of the essay, the second part will compare the systems and point out the main differences or similarities. The last section provides a summary of the developments which took place in the evolution of strong verbs and which have already been touched in the descriptions of the different classification systems.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the extension of the weak verbal preterite markers to the category of English strong verbs before the year 1500. The examination of a large corpus of data collected from numerous sources is complemented by the analysis of individual representative texts from the periods in question. The application of statistical methods allows the obtained results to be viewed with a considerable degree of reliability. The conclusions of the research indicate the dominition of the French language in England after the Norman Conquest of 1066 as the main influence on the process.
Book Synopsis The Regularity of the 'Irregular' Verbs and Nouns in English by : Elena Even-Simkin
Download or read book The Regularity of the 'Irregular' Verbs and Nouns in English written by Elena Even-Simkin and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2013-09-27 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents an in-depth study of the so-called irregular Past Tense (sing/sang) and Noun Plural (foot/feet) forms with Internal Vowel Alternation (IVA) in English demonstrating that they possess both a fixed phonological and semantic regularity. The innovative sign-oriented analysis and inductive methodology employed in this study are further supported by additional first language acquisition data, experimental studies and historical evidence. The data culled from multiple linguistic anthologies, dictionaries and thesauri have shown that although the IVA process comprises a relatively small number of nominal and verbal forms in Modern English, IVA, originally, was a prevalent and productive process in Old English, Indo-European and other language families. The results of this empirical study present and introduce a novel classification based on the regular and systematic iconic-phonological and semantic nature of all these diverse IVA processes both nominal and verbal that has been maintained throughout the history of English.

Book Synopsis Irregularities in Modern English by : Hans Frede Nielsen
Download or read book Irregularities in Modern English written by Hans Frede Nielsen and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is innovative, when compared to the first edition, in that it reverses the history of the English language. It takes present-day English as its point of departure, and gives historical explanations only in so far as they illustrate modern forms. The book does not presuppose a reading knowledge of Old and Middle English, but provides students with ready answers to questions they may have concerning modern "irregularities." Dutch and German examples and parallels, which might shed light on English forms and developments, have also been included. Comparisons not only heighten linguistic awareness on the part of the reader, but also to show what exactly happened in closely related languages.
