Word: rhematic Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From Ancient Greek ῥηματικός (rhēmatikós, “verbal, pertaining to verbs”), from Ancient Greek ῥηματ- (rhēmat-), ῥῆμα (rhêma, “verb (grammar), word”) + -ικός (-ikós, “-ic; suffix meaning ‘of or pertaining to, in the manner of’”). Pronunciation: /ɹiːˈmatɪk/, /ɹɪ-/, /ɹəˈmætɪk/, /ɹi-/, /-ˈmæɾɪk/ 1. The provision of new information regarding the current theme. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: Within a non-theme, transitionals cede to rhematics, the transition itself being lowest on the CD scale. 2. In the work of Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834): the doctrine or study of arranging words into sentences clearly. Labels: countable, obsolete, rare, uncountable Example: The object of rhetoric is persuasion,—of logic, conviction,—of grammar, significancy. A fourth term is wanting, the rhematic, or logic of sentences. Example: He [Coleridge] establishes an opposition between Σύνταξις ῥημάτων or ῥηματική ("rhematic"), the art of joining words into sentences, and γραμματική ("grammar"), which in its derivation from γράμμα (a letter, written character) is the art of joining letters together, spelling. Or, cf CN IV 4771: "Grammar [is] the scheme & instrument of connecting words significantly, the Meta-grammatic <rhematic>, the Doctrine of arranging words perspicuously" […]
Word: rhematic Part of Speech: adj Etymology: From Ancient Greek ῥηματικός (rhēmatikós, “verbal, pertaining to verbs”), from Ancient Greek ῥηματ- (rhēmat-), ῥῆμα (rhêma, “verb (grammar), word”) + -ικός (-ikós, “-ic; suffix meaning ‘of or pertaining to, in the manner of’”). Pronunciation: /ɹiːˈmatɪk/, /ɹɪ-/, /ɹəˈmætɪk/, /ɹi-/, /-ˈmæɾɪk/ 1. Of or pertaining to a rheme. Labels: not-comparable Example: Rhematic relations are, in a sense, 'intermediate syntactic meanings'. To avoid a proliferation of types of intermediate meanings I do not extend the concept of intermediate syntactic meaning to cover rhematic relations. Example: In addition, if imitation and recycling tend to turn thematic titles into rhematic ones as I have shown for Situations, the use of sequels and continuations cannot avoid doing so. The title Le Menteur [The Liar: [Pierre] Corneille] was perfectly thematic; in La Suite du Menteur [Sequel to The Liar: Corneille], which is rhematic (this play is the sequel ...), Le Menteur itself becomes rhematic (this play is the sequel to the play entitled ...). 2. Of or pertaining to a rheme. Labels: not-comparable Example: Rhematic Indexical Sinsign: As an object of raw experience, a burst of unplanned hollering is a rhematic indexical sinsign: it directs attention to the object which caused the presence of the sign […]. Example: [Charles Sanders] Peirce argues that common and proper nouns function typically as indices, whereas verbs and adjectives are typically icons and rhemes (MS 516:39). The noun camel is a rhematic index when it is interpreted and thus connected with real-life experience. The adjective green is a rhematic icon open to many interpretations because it says nothing about any object to which this color should be attributed. 3. Of or pertaining to word formation. Labels: not-comparable, obsolete 4. In Coleridge's work: relating to the arrangement of words into sentences clearly. Labels: not-comparable, obsolete, rare 5. Having a verb for its base; derived from a verb. Labels: not-comparable, obsolete, rare Example: rhematic adjectives Example: Passive rhematic adjectives ending in -able […]
