This week I have learnt many new language features and terms that I didn't
know previously. The term "GRAMPS" Is very helpful as it helps
analyse text. This is due to G standing for genre, R for Register, A for
audience, M for mode, P for purpose and S for subject. This is very helpful and
I will remember this for the future as I analyse texts.
I was reminded of Lexical fields which are a group of words that share
meanings. Also that Connotation is what a word symbolises such as an apple
representing temptation from Adam & Eve story, and the denotation is the
exact meaning of the word such as apple = small, round, fruit, red. Semantics
is the meaning of the word.
Well done Jemma. Keep up the good work.
