| Crynodeb: | This thesis takes as its main objective the description of prepositions
relating to space and time in terms of the syntactic and semantic features in
English and Vietnamese. In this original study, the thesis discusses the use of
prepositions in English, through examining examples found in various
linguistic books, textbooks, English short stories, newspapers and from the
Internet. Prepositional elements that typically refer to circumstances of time,
space, cover a range of meanings and can be placed at the beginning, in the
middle or at the end of a sentence. The description of the frequency of
meaning types and discussion of the reasons for selecting positions show that
the use of prepositions differs across text types. Prepositional usage is often
linked to the general build-up of a text and can reflect its content and purpose.
In using real texts, this paper identifies a challenge for the classification of
prepositions, and also highlights the fact that some prepositions have uses
temporal expressions are based on spatial ones. Also, the paper is then
focused on discover and contrast these prepositions to its Vietnamese
equivalents to enhance the effectiveness of teaching, learning and translating
as well as further studying these kinds of prepositions. |
