不用借助构词词缀,把一个单词从一种词类转化成另一种词类的方法就是转化法。由于词类转化的结果,英语中就形成了大量外形相同但词类不同的词,即同形异类词。转化主要有如下几种类型。
一、名词起定语作用(类似名词转化为形容词):
space travel, television network, stone table, paper bag, water pipe, history teacher, college students
二、名词转化为动词:
to dust the desk,?go boating, dust?boat to train?to ship the goods, train?to mail, ship?to film this story, mail?film
三、形容词转化为动词:
to dry your hands,?to slow down a little bit, dry?slow to narrow the street,?to free the slaves, narrow?to wrong sb, free?wrong 四、动词转化为名词:
without any?a good dress, to doubt?an act, to dress?to act love of?a terrible smell, to love?a local guide, to smell?doubt, to guide us a demand for more equal?a good taste, to demand?one’s country, to taste rights
五、形容词转化为名词:
China Daily,?dangerous chemicals, daily?chemical a native?a maths final, native?final 第三节 派生法
派生法又叫词缀法,即在一个单词前或其后加上词缀,构成新的单词。中学英语中以派生法生成的词汇占整个中学词汇总量的25%。 一、前缀

b. un+副词:undoubtedly, unexpectedly, unfortunately, unusually, unhappily, unluckily
由un+形容词构成的词除了unknown, unseen, unfit等词之外,其它词都可变为加-ly的副词(个别形容词尾需要变动)。
