The grammatical words which play so large a part in English grammarare for the most part sharply and obviously different from the lexical words. Arough and ready difference which may seem the most obvious is that grammatical　　　 1．_______words have “less meaning”, but in fact some grammarians have called them　　　　　 2．_______“empty” words as opposed in the “full” words of vocabulary. But this is a rather 3．_______misled way of expressing the distinction. Although a word like theis not the name　　4．_______of something as man is, it is very far away from being meaningless; there is a　　　 5．_______sharp difference in meaning between “man is vile” and “the man is vile”, yet theis the single vehicle of this difference in meaning. Moreover, grammatical words　　 6．_______differ considerably among themselves as the amount of meaning they have even in th 　7．_______lexical sense. Another name for the grammatical words has been “little words.”But size is by no mean a good criterion for distinguishing the grammatical words 　　8．_______of English, when we consider that we have lexical words as go, man, say, car.　　　　9．_______Apart from this, however, there is a good deal of truth in what some people say:we certainly do create a great number of obscurity when we omit them. This　　　　　10．_______is illustrated not only in the poetry of Robert Browning but in the prose of tele-grams and newspaper headlines.
