Слайд 23

Описание слайда:

ME Morphology The ME period is marked by a great reduction in the inflectional system inherited from OE, so that ME is often reffered to as the period of weakened inflections.

Слайд 24

Описание слайда:

Reasons for these changes: Reasons for these changes: the mixing of OE with Old Norse. Frequently, the English and Scandinavian words were sufficiently similar to be recognizable, but had different sets of inflections (e.g. OE sunu – OScan. sunr); phonological cause. The loss and weakening of unstressed syllables at the end of words destroyed many of the distinctive inflections of OE (OE endings –an, -on, -un, -um all became –en, which was later reduced to –e.

Слайд 25

Описание слайда:

ME Noun The number of declensions was reduced to two: ME Strong declension: Nom. Pl –es; Gen. Sg. –es (OE strong a-stem declension); ME Weak declension: Nom. Pl. –en; Gen. Sg. –en (OE weak n-stem declension).

Слайд 26

Описание слайда:

In PDE we still have a few relics of other declensions: there are the mutated plurals like feet, geese, mice, and men, where the vowel of the plural was changed by front mutation, and there is no plural ending.

Слайд 27

Описание слайда:

The number of cases was reduced to two: Common and Genitive. The number of cases was reduced to two: Common and Genitive.

Слайд 28

Описание слайда:

The grammatical categories of the Noun: The grammatical categories of the Noun: the category of case (Common and Genitive); the category of number (Singular and Plural); the category of gender (masculine, feminine and neuter) types of declension: strong and weak.

Слайд 29

Описание слайда:

The category of Gender a shift from 'grammatical' to 'natural' gender;

Слайд 30

Описание слайда:

The Definite Article In OE the DA showed three genders (sē masculine, sēo feminine, þæt neuter), and was declined through all four cases, singular and plural. The form the arose as Late OE þe, which supplanted sē and sēo. By the end of the ME period we have reached the modern position, in which the is the only form of the definite article.

Слайд 31

Описание слайда:

The Verb Old English marked two tenses (past vs present), three moods (indicative vs imperative vs subjunctive), and three persons (first, second, third) and two numbers. 4 classes of OE verbs.

Слайд 32

Описание слайда:

The principle of analogy— the tendency of language to follow certain patterns and adapt a less common form to a more familiar one—is well exemplified in the further history of the strong verbs.

Слайд 33

Описание слайда:

Classes of ME Verbs Classes of ME Verbs At a time when English was the language chiefly of the lower classes, it was natural that many speakers should apply the pattern of weak verbs to some which were historically strong.

Слайд 34

Описание слайда:

The two key changes which affected ME verbs: The two key changes which affected ME verbs: 1) the reduction of inflectional endings, 2) the shift of strong verbs to the weak paradigm.

Слайд 35

Описание слайда:

The ME Verbal System In ME the system of inflections became much reduced, but a complicated system of tenses is built up by means of the primary auxilaries (be, have, do) and the modal auxiliaries (shall, should, will, etc.).

Слайд 36

Описание слайда:

The Future Tense The future tense with shall and will is established in ME. In OE these verbs had the connotation of obligation and desire respectively: OE ic sceal meant “I am obliged to” OE ic wille meant “I wish to”.

Слайд 37

Описание слайда:

The Perfect Tenses and Passive Forms The Perfect tenses with habban or bēon and the passive forms with bēon and weorþan already existed in OE, but they came to be used more frequently in ME.

Слайд 38

Описание слайда:

The Continuous Tenses The Continuous tenses, formed with be + the present participle, also arise in ME, but are not at all common until the Modern English period.

Слайд 39

Описание слайда:

By the end of ME the perfect, passive, and continuous markings of the verb were all well established, though much less frequently used than today.

Слайд 40

Описание слайда:

ME Syntax As the inflectional system decayed, other devices were increasingly used to replace it.

Слайд 41

Описание слайда:

Word-order became more important: S-V-O word-order became the dominant one. Word-order became more important: S-V-O word-order became the dominant one. The use of prepositions to perform the functions formely carried out by word-endings. E.g. prepositions like in, with, by.
