29.Word-composition is one of the productive types of word-formation in Modern English. Structurally compound words are characterised by the specific order and arrangement in which bases follow one another. Graphically most compounds have two types of spelling — they are spelt either solidly or with a hyphen.(daughter-in-law). Semantically compound words are generally motivated units..(board, notice-board, key-board). Compound words may be described from different points of view and consequently may be classified according to different principles. They may be viewed from the point of view: 1) of general relationship and degree of semantic independence of components; 2) of the parts of speech compound words represent; 3) of the means of composition used to link the two ICs together; 4) of the type of ICs that are brought together to form a compound; 5) of the correlative relations with the system of free word- groups.
23.Antonymy in general shares many features typical of synonymy. Like synonyms, perfect or complete antonyms are fairly rare.
It is usual to find the relations of antonymy restricted to certain contexts(thin- fat).
