UNIT 6 CONVERSION



Слово может менять свое значение и выполнять новую синтаксическую функцию в предложении, не изменяя при этом написания и произношения. Наиболее распространенными является образование глаголов от существительных, например:

master (хозяин) – to master (управлять)

house (дом) – to house (размещать)

water (вода) – to water (поливать)

better (лучший) – to better (улучшать)

Глаголы могут быть образованы и от прилагательных:

empty (пустой) – to empty (опустошать)

dark (темный) – to dark (темнеть)

light (свет) – light (светлый) – to light (освещать)

Незнакомое слово следует отыскивать в словаре только после того, как по внешним признакам и месту в предложении будет определено, какой частью речи оно является.
