Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A key challenge of studying the historical phonology of any language is how to reconstruct the pronunciation of periods before the availability of sound recording. Many studies of pre-twentieth-century pronunciation rely on sources that comment on how people spoke, or infer pronunciation from spelling variation or rhymes. This book is the ¿rst to investigate the phonology of nineteenth-century English based on a new kind of written source material: it examines pronunciation evidence provided by contemporary grammar books, and offers quantitative and qualitative analyses of the phonological commentary found in a collection of 258 English grammars published in Britain, Ireland, and North America during the nineteenth century.The nineteenth century has been described as the century of prescriptivism, and this book examines the tensions between prescriptive and descriptive approaches in the grammars. Individual case studies detail several linguistic features which were undergoing change and which were reportedly stigmatised at the time. Consonantal features include non-rhoticity, /h/-dropping and /h/-insertion, the WHICH-WITCH merger, /v/-/w/ interchange, and the pronunciation of -ing. Further studies chart variation in the vowel of BATH words, and in the diphthongs of words such as FACE and GOAT, which are characteristic of both RP and American English pronunciation. In exploring the potential of this understudied source material as evidence of historical pronunciation, this book contributes to the ¿elds of historical phonology, grammaticography, the study of prescriptivism, and historical sociolinguistics. 352 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Os jarawaras são um povo indígena das terras baixas da Amazônia, no estado do Amazonas, Brasil. A língua deles é uma de meia dúzia de línguas da família linguística Arawá. Siko e Yowao, ambos falecidos agora, eram anciãos contadores de histórias jarawaras. As histórias têm valor sob vários pontos de vista. Em primeiro lugar, há o valor literário-algumas das histórias são muito cômicas, por exemplo. Em segundo lugar, as histórias constituem uma janela para a vida dos jarawaras: as suas relações sociais, a sua história, e a sua religião tradicional. Finalmente, a apresentação interlinear dos textos será de interesse para os linguistas. O volume contém uma introdução que fornece algumas informações gerais sobre a língua e a cultura. Este volume traz traduções em português, e corresponde à mesma obra publicada em 2026 com traduções em inglês. 628 pp. Englisch. …

Buch. Condición: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Much of human communication occurs while people are moving, exerting themselves, or otherwise not at rest, yet speech production in such contexts has received little systematic attention. Previous studies have typically addressed respiration, phonation, or articulation separately, making it difficult to characterize changes in speech production as a whole. This book presents a multi-level investigation of speech during controlled physical activity. Combining respiratory data, acoustic analysis, and speaker reports, it examines how different exercise levels affect breathing patterns, phonation, and articulatory realization.The analyses reveal adjustments across all production levels, but no uniform production mode: individual speakers show distinct patterns of response under the same physical workload. By integrating quantitative and qualitative evidence, the book highlights the role of between-speaker variability for understanding speech behavior under real-life conditions. The findings inform models of speech production and variability, and they support a broader view of speech as a dynamically coordinated system that adapts across changing bodily states. 284 pp. Englisch.…
