This study, based on the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA), explores the extended meaning unit of the node word “divorce”, analyzing its semantic tendencies, word class connections, and semantic prosody features from both noun and verb perspectives. The findings show that “divorce” has a broad range of applications, with its use as a noun being more formal. The word class connections associated with “divorce” are rich and varied;its semantic tendencies are overwhelmingly neutral, followed by negative, with positive semantic tendencies being extremely rare. The collocation of “divorce” with “from” is relatively special, reflecting a dual semantic tendency. Furthermore, two sets of fixed structures exhibiting negative semantic prosody were identified. In addition to co-occurring with words that have positive/negative connotations, “divorce” also demonstrates its semantic prosody characteristics through causal logic and parallel constructions. Moreover, there is a phenomenon of irrationally amplifying its negativity, which should be avoided. In the process of language learning and research, English learners can benefit from the analysis of extended meaning unit to better understand and use the word.展开更多

The study finds that while the collocation patterns of both forms are similar, their semantic preferences differ. The quantifier “Yifu” generally shows no significant emotional inclination when paired with concrete nouns. However, when combined with nouns describing human organs or expressions, it often implies a negative attitude from the speaker. In contrast, “Yifufu” emphasizes quantity, and depending on the modifying elements it is paired with, it generally exhibits a positive semantic prosody. This study, through a detailed analysis of the phenomenon of semantic prosody in quantifiers, further enriches the theoretical research on the semantic prosody. It contributes to a better understanding of the unique role that quantifiers play in expressing emotional coloring and evaluative tendencies.展开更多

The theory of extended unit of meaning combining with linguistic corpora has become a widely accepted approach to language research. This research employs the Contemporary American English Corpus (COCA) and uses the concrete verb “Enhance” as a keyword to explore the extended unit of meaning. It analyzes the collocates and colligations of the word, as well as the semantic preference of its collocates and the semantic resonances that emerge in different contexts. The study finds that the verb “Enhance” can connect with various parts of speech, including nouns, adjectives, and adverbs, demonstrating different colligations. The collocates associated with this word reflect a semantic preference towards social development and personal improvement, indicating a positive semantic prosody for “Enhance”. This research deepens our understanding of the interplay between the form and meaning of linguistic units, thereby better revealing the patterns of language use and the mechanisms of meaning construction. Additionally, the research process can provide English teachers with insights into vocabulary instruction and offer learners new approaches to vocabulary acquisition.展开更多
