An Introduction to Linguistics - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

This is a guide to the very nature of language. By covering all major aspects of linguistics with chapters on semantics (the study of meaning), phonology (the sound systems of languages) and morphology (the structure of words), as well as syntax and social variation it gives a grounding in the fundamental concepts of language and a practical analysis of its use. Concise summaries of the areas covered, a variety of texts and topic related exercises, as well as a helpful glossary, provide further aids to study and revision.
