Abstract
The purpose of this book is to give a scientifically rigorous introduction to English lexicology in an informal tone. The informal and personal tone is hoped to make the sometimes complex and abstract concepts of linguistic analysis more accessible to novices. The book is meant for master's students of English, but I hope that it can prove useful to anyone who is interested in English lexicology. It is not meant to be yet another dry treatise for the sole benefit of my fellow linguists.
Since this book has been conceived in the context of educating teachers of English at the Department of English of the Technical University of Liberec, it is constrained by the curriculum of this program. It is specifically a textbook for the course on English lexicology in the first semester of the master's program.
