1. Lexical and grammatical aspects of the word. Types of grammatical meanings.

2. Classification of sentences according to the purpose of utterance and according to their structure. Two-member and one-member sentences.

3. Do the task from the card.

Lexical meaning – the specific kind of 'content' produced (or engendered) by the reverberation of objective reality in the human consciousness which constitutes the inner (semantic) structure of linguistic units with respect to which their material form is the outer (or phonetic) structure (O.Akhmanova); the material meaning of a word, i.e. the meaning of the main material part of the word (as distinct from its formal, or grammatical part), which reflects the concept the given word expresses and the basic properties of the thing (phenomenon, property, state, etc.) the word denotes.

Grammatical meaning – the meaning of the formal membership of a word expressed by the word's form, i.e. the meaning of relationship manifested not in the word itself but in the dependent element which is supplementary to its material part (inflexion, outer formative, functional affix – q.v.).

he three aspects (structural, semantic, functional) lay the foundation for sentence classifications, based correspondingly on sentence structure, sentence meaning and purpose of communication. As a formally organized unit, the sentence possesses structure, which is understood to be a constructive integration of words (noun groups, verb groups, adjective groups, adverb groups) occupying certain syntactic positions (of subject, predicate, object, attribute, adverbial modifier) connected syntagmatically with syntactic relations (predicative, subordinate and coordinate).

According to their structure, sentences are classified as follows:

· simple, with only one predicative line expressed by subject and predicate, and composite, with two or more predicative lines, namely, complex, semi-complex, compound, semi-compound: e.g. I was curious, though it wasn’t any of my business. If you continue in this way you will break her heart. You can’t expect all people to take your words for granted. I really don’t think of him being rude to his elders. Either he had recovered from panic, or he pretended to have. I turned the handle, and the door opened. Their conversation was unpleasant but rather instructing. They can, and do get their supplies from the outside;

· complete, having full predication in the position of subject and predicate, and incomplete or elliptical, where missing parts are easily understood from the context: e.g. I bet you completely forgot it. – Not completely. He is not afraid of thinking! And of acting? Do you want to? – Extraordinarily;

two-member, where both the subject and the predicate are explicitly expressed in the outer structure, and one-member, with only one part being explicitly expressed, the other one – missing, included are the following: nounal (e.g. Who will meet us? – Mary. Silence! No wind), adjectival (e.g. What is your opinion? – Hard and ruthless. So kind of you!), verbal (e.g. Sit down! Do take a seat! Why not tell him?), modal words (e.g. Certainly! Alright! Of course), greeting, introduction formulas, incentives, excuses, etc. (e.g. Good morning! Thank you. Sorry!);
