Introducing English Linguistics
Introducing English Linguistics provides a genuine introduction to the linguistics of English that provides a broad overview of the subject, sustaining students interest while avoiding excessive detail. This text adopts a top-down approach to language, beginning with the largest unit of linguistic structure, the text, and working down to smaller structures like sentences, words, and speech sounds. By studying language in context, students see how smaller pieces of language are a consequence of the larger goals of linguistic communication. Unlike traditional texts, this book uses sample materials from major computerized databases of spoken and written English instead of invented examples, providing students with a more realistic view of language.
