От авторов:

In this book the reader will find the fundamentals of the word theory and of the main problems associated with English vocabulary,
its characteristics and subdivisions. Each chapter contains both theory and exercises for seminar and independent work.

The book is intended for English language students at Pedagogi-cal Universities (3d and 4th years of studies) taking the course of
English lexicology and fully meets the requirements of the pro-gramme in the subject. It may also be of interest to all readers,
whose command of English is sufficient to enable them to read texts of av-erage difficulty and who would like to gain some information
about the vocabulary resources of Modern English (for example, about synonyms and antonyms), about the stylistic peculiarities of
English vocabulary, about the complex nature of the word's meaning and the modern methods of its investigation, about English idioms,
about those changes that English vocabulary underwent in its historical de-velopment and about some other aspects of English lexicology.

One can hardly acquire a perfect command of English without having knowledge of all these things, for a perfect command of a language
implies the conscious approach to the language's resources and at least a partial understanding of the "inner mechanism" which makes
the huge language system work.
This book is the first attempt to embrace both the theory and prac-tical exercises in the one volume, the two parts being integrated.

The authors tried to establish links between the theory of lexicology and the reality of living speech, on the one hand, and the
language-learning and language-teaching process, on the other, never losing sight of the fact that the majority of intended readers of
the book are teachers and students of Pedagogical Universities.

The authors tried to present the material in an easy and compre-hensible style and, at the same time, to meet the reader on the level
of a half-informal talk. With the view of making the book more vivid and interesting, we have introduced extracts from humorous authors,
numerous jokes and anecdotes and extracts from books by out-standing writers, aiming to show how different lexicological phe-nomena are
used for stylistic purposes.

Theory and exercises to Ch. 1—2 were written by G.B.Antrushina, exercises to Introduction and Ch. 5, 6, 9, 10, 11 by O. V. Afanasyeva
and to Ch. 3, 4, 7, 8,12,13,14 by N. N. Morozova.
The authors wish to acknowledge the considerable assistance af-forded them by their English colleague Mr. Robert T. Pullin, Lecturer
in Education, Russian and French, at the University of Sheffield, U. K., who kindly acted as stylistic editor before final publication.

We are also sincerely grateful to our colleagues at the Pyatigorsk and Irkutsk Institutes of Foreign Languages and at the Pedagogical
Institute of Ekaterinburg who read the book in manuscript and made valuable suggestions.
