A clear and up-to-date introduction to linguistics, this bestselling textbook addresses the full scope of language, from the traditional subjects of structural linguistics (relating to sound, form, meaning, and language change) to the more specialized subjects of contextual linguistics (including discourse, dialect variation, language and culture, and the politics of language). There are also separate chapters on language and the brain, computational linguistics, writing, and first and second language learning. Extensively classroom-tested, this second edition has been revised to further support student learning, with numerous new examples, exercises, and textboxes to model and contextualize key concepts. Updated throughout to incorporate contemporary issues and events, it includes worked examples of phonological analyses and multiple examples of a variety of World Englishes. A rich collection of online resources completes the learning package.

New to this edition:

• Incorporates recent events and contemporary issues• A thorough introduction to the parts of speech• Numerous new examples of dialect variation across World Englishes• Enhanced explanations of many key phonetic and phonological concepts • Worked examples of phonological analyses• Clear coverage of the theory of projection of syntactic structure from the lexicon

Designed to help those studying speech-language pathology, this highly useful workbook is both an introduction to the basic concepts and a teaching tool to develop and test students’ knowledge. Frequently encountered communication disorders are explained, as are conditions less commonly found in speech-language pathology curricula, but which feature increasingly in clinical caseloads.

Features

• 330 short-answer questions help students to develop knowledge of the causes and features of communication disorders.

• 60 data analysis exercises give students practice in analysing clinical linguistic data.

• Full answers to the exercises are provided, saving the teacher time in devising responses; students can use the responses to test their own knowledge and understanding.

• A detailed glossary of terms makes the text self-contained, avoiding the need to consult other sources for explanations.

• Suggested further readings are provided for each chapter, pitched at the appropriate level.

teresting

How do you pronounce omega, tortoise and sloth? – and why? Do charted and chartered sound the same? How do people pronounce the names Charon, Punjab, and Sexwale?

In this engaging book, John Wells, a world-renowned phonetician and phonologist, explores these questions and others.

Each chapter consists of carefully selected entries from Wells’s acclaimed phonetics blog, on which he regularly posted on a range of current and widely researched topics such as pronunciation, teaching, intonation, spelling and accents.

Based on sound scholarship and full of fascinating facts about the pronunciation of Welsh, Swedish, Czech, Zulu, Icelandic and other languages, this book will appeal to scholars and students in phonetics and phonology, as well as general readers wanting to know more about language.

Anyone interested in why a poster in Antigua invited cruise ship visitors to enjoy a game of porker, or what hymns can tell us about pronunciation, should read this book.

J. C. Wells is Emeritus Professor of Phonetics at University College London and a Fellow of the British Academy. His interests centre on the phonetic and phonological description of languages but also extend to lexicography and language teaching.

‘This delightful collection of fascinating anecdotes, keen observations about the ways things are pronounced and erudite re� ections from his long and distinguished career as a phonetician will ensure that John Wells continues to be an inspiration not just for established linguists and students of phonetics but also for a wide range of readers with a general interest in language.’

David Deterding, Universiti Brunei Darussalam

‘There is absolutely nothing having to do with the speech sounds of English – and languages in general – that John Wells cannot write about brilliantly, persuasively, knowledgeably and entertainingly. Sounds Interesting truly is extraordinarily interesting.’

Peter Trudgill, University of Agder

‘We are lucky to have the changes in the English language presented and described here by such a great scholar.’

Author of The Communication Disorders Workbook

The Communication Disorders Workbook provides students and instructors with exercises

on the full range of developmental and acquired communication disorders. Short-answer

questions and exercises based on actual clinical data not only test the reader’s knowledge of

these disorders, but also develop skills of linguistic analysis that are essential to the work of

speech-language pathologists and clinical linguists. The volume reflects the most recent research

in speech-language pathology and related medical and linguistic disciplines.

Authors of Multilingualism

Multilingualism is becoming a new ‘lingualism order’ in an era of globalisation

as many social, economic and cultural trends increase language contact between

people and institutions, both within and across national boundaries. This book

presents multilingualism as an evolving field of inquiry into the multi-faceted

linguistic situations that involve the establishment and use of more than two

languages in individuals, as well as in larger political entities. It highlights the

diversity and prevalence of multilingual situations and discusses related cultural,

educational and socio-political issues.

Professor Karin C. Ryding, Georgetown University

Author of Arabic: A Linguistic Introduction

Arabic: A Linguistic Introduction, is a brief overview of issues in theoretical linguistics

as applied to Arabic. It forms a framework for course work on contemporary Arabic

linguistics and is structured to cover fundamentals of Arabic phonology, morphology,

and syntax. It introduces the ways in which these topics are approached from

various theoretical perspectives, such as generative grammar, relational grammar,

generative morphology, lexical semantics, and others. Study questions and

additional readings accompany each chapter.

Language DeathDavid Crystal

The rapid endangerment and death of many minority languages across the world is a matter of widespread concern, not only among linguists and anthropologists but among all concerned with issues of cultural identity in an increasingly globalized culture. By some counts, only 600 of the 6,000 or so languages in the world are ‘safe’ from the threat of extinction. A leading commentator and popular writer on language issues, David Crystal asks the fundamental question, ‘why is language death so important?’, reviews the reasons for the current crisis, and investigates what is being done to reduce its impact. This book contains not only intelligent argument, but moving descriptions of the decline and demise of particular languages, and practical advice for anyone interested in pursuing the subject further.Canto Classics

The Universal Structure of CategoriesTowards a Formal TypologyMartina WiltschkoUniversity of British Columbia, Vancouver

Using data from a variety of languages, this book explores a range of grammatical categories and constructions, including tense, aspect, subjunctive, case and demonstratives. It presents a new theory of grammatical categories - the Universal Spine Hypothesis - and reinforces generative notions of Universal Grammar while accommodating insights from linguistic typology.

The Minimalist ProgramThe Nature and Plausibility of Chomsky’s BiolinguisticsFahad Rashed Al-MutairiUniversity of Essex

This evaluation of Chomsky’s work from the perspectives of linguistics, evolution of language, history of physics, and philosophy of mind is interdisciplinary. It encourages linguists to reflect on the foundations of their discipline, and invites non-linguists to appreciate the complexity of human language and its place in the world.

‘A fascinating exploration of core concepts in Chomsky’s Minimalist Programme. I hugely enjoyed Al-Mutairi’s fresh look at the issues, even where I disagreed with him. Thought provoking and fun.’David Adger, Queen Mary, University of London

Elementary Syntactic StructuresProspects of a Feature-Free SyntaxCedric BoeckxICREA and Universitat de Barcelona

Turning grammar upside down, this book proposes a new model of syntax that is better suited for interdisciplinary interactions, and shows how syntax can proceed free of lexical influence. The empirical domain examined is vast, and all the fundamental units and properties of syntax are rethought.

‘To be a good biolinguist, one needs to be a serious anti-lexicalist. Cedric Boeckx proves it by bringing together the highlights of modern syntactic theorizing and biological thinking.’Koji Fujita, Kyoto University

Categorial FeaturesA Generative Theory of Word Class CategoriesPhoevos PanagiotidisUniversity of Cyprus

This book proposes a novel theory of parts of speech, bringing together the latest research and discoveries in the area from different viewpoints. The theory is richly illustrated with examples from a variety of languages and explains elements and phenomena central to the nature of human language.

‘A welcome reconsideration of the notion of lexical category from a syntactic-decomposition perspective. Panagiotidis draws together insights from a diverse array of frameworks to formulate his central hypothesis concerning the ‘perspective-taking’ contribution of (N) and (V) features at LF. His proposal has explanatory power in a number of domains, particularly in providing an intuitive rationale for the long-recognized requirement that lexical roots must be categorized in order to participate in a syntactic derivation. Other outstanding contributions include the idea that the notion of ‘functional’ reduces to ‘bears uninterpretable categorial features’, and a substantive characterization of what ‘semi-lexical’ really means. A very stimulating read.’Heidi Harley, University of Arizona

CaseIts Principles and its ParametersMark BakerRutgers University, New Jersey

In Case, Mark Baker presents a unified theory of morphological case, one of the most important ways that languages indicate a noun phrase’s function in a sentence. It includes the first full-length study of dependent case assignment. The ideas are richly illustrated with data from more than twenty unrelated languages.

Advance praise: ‘Case is impressive in its breadth and scope, the variety of data surveyed, and thoughtful argumentation. As he has done throughout his career, Mark Baker once again helps us think about fundamental concepts of linguistic theory.’Maria Polinsky, Harvard University

Arguments in Syntax and SemanticsAlexander WilliamsUniversity of Maryland, College Park

A guide to the relations between a predicate and its arguments, for researchers and advanced students in linguistics. Engages foundational issues in both syntax and semantics, with attention to the correspondence between structure at the two levels. Chapters include discussion questions and suggestions for further reading.

Advance praise: ‘This is a superb book, so much clearer than anything I have seen in many years. It will definitely make a mark in the discussion. The author has a remarkable command of both syntax and semantics and is able to provide simple and exact explanations. Anyone familiar with the literature on plurals in particular can only marvel at the simplicity and clarity with which the problems are discussed here.’Marcus Kracht, Universität Bielefeld

Drawing on extensive corpus-based research, this book explores the nature of coordinate constructions in three case studies, covering order in copulative compounds, binomials, and more complex phrases. The author uses empirical analyses to explore a wide range of factors and also offers readers a processing perspective on the results obtained.

‘A tour de force of modern variation linguistics - and a cutting edge demonstration of how processing affects the ordering in coordinated structures along phonological, morphological, syntactic, semantic and pragmatic parameters.’Britta Mondorf, Mainz University

What makes the noun phrase ‘the man I saw’ more complex than ‘the man’? Designed for researchers and students interested in questions of language complexity, this book aims to answer that question by exploring variation in more than three billion words of British and American data.

‘Noun phrase complexity, syntactic weight, and related notions take center stage in the empirical literature on grammatical variation.

Parentheticals in Spoken EnglishThe Syntax-Prosody RelationNicole DehéUniversität Konstanz, Germany

Parentheticals have traditionally been assumed to lie outside the syntactic structure of the clause in which they are embedded, and in spoken English their external nature is marked by a difference in intonation. This study re-examines parentheticals and argues that they actually operate at the syntax-prosody interface.

‘This book is not only the most detailed study of spoken parentheticals to date, but should be required reading for anyone relying on phrasal segmentation for their prosodic analysis.’Anne Wichmann, University of Central Lancashire

Drawing on data from six Romance languages (French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan and Romanian), this monograph focuses on a widely debated area of phonetics and phonology: intonation, and specifically its relation to metrics, its interface with syntax, and whether it can be attributed to phonetics or phonology, or equally to both.2015 228 x 152 mm 280pp 190 b/w illus. 15 tables 978-1-107-03618-5 Hardback

Sounds InterestingObservations on English and General PhoneticsJ. C. WellsUniversity College London

How do you pronounce tortoise and sloth, and why? Do charted and chartered sound the same? How do people pronounce the names Charon and Punjab? In this engaging book, consisting of selected entries from his acclaimed phonetics blog, John Wells, a world-renowned phonetician and phonologist, explores these questions and others.

‘This delightful collection of fascinating anecdotes, keen observations about the ways things are pronounced, and erudite reflections from his long and distinguished career as a phonetician will ensure that John Wells continues to be an inspiration not just for established linguists and students of phonetics but also for a wide range of readers with a general interest in language.’David Deterding, Universiti Brunei Darussalam

Corpus PragmaticsA HandbookEdited by Karin AijmerGöteborgs Universitet, Sweden

and Christoph RühlemannPhilipps-Universität Marburg, Germany

This is the first handbook to survey and expand the burgeoning field of corpus pragmatics, the intersection of pragmatics and corpus linguistics. It covers corpus-pragmatic research carried out in key areas such as speech acts, reference and conversational organisation.

‘Pragmatics and corpus linguistics are two major areas of linguistics which developed with very different trajectories from the 1960s and 1970s. This volume shows that they are now on convergent paths, and that corpus pragmatics is an emerging discipline in its own right.’Geoffrey Leech, Lancaster University

The Cambridge Handbook of English Corpus LinguisticsEdited by Douglas BiberNorthern Arizona University

and Randi ReppenNorthern Arizona University

The Cambridge Handbook of English Corpus Linguistics (CHECL) surveys the breadth of corpus-based linguistic research on English, including chapters on collocations, phraseology, grammatical variation, historical change, and the description of registers and dialects. The most innovative aspects of the CHECL are its emphasis on critical discussion, its explicit evaluation of the state of the art in each sub-discipline, and the inclusion of empirical case studies. While each chapter includes a broad survey of previous research, the primary focus is on a detailed description of the most important corpus-based studies in this area, with discussion of what those studies found, and why they are important. Each chapter also includes a critical discussion of the corpus-based methods employed for research in this area, as well as an explicit summary of new findings and discoveries.Contributors: Silvia Bernardini, Douglas Biber, Alex Boulton, Ray Carey, Winnie Cheng, Brian Clancy, Thomas Cobb, Susan Conrad, Jonathan Culpeper, Mark Davies, Jane Demmen, Gaëtanelle Gilquin, Sylviane Granger, Bethany Gray, Jack Grieve, Stefan Th.

The Cambridge Handbook of Bilingual ProcessingEdited by John W. SchwieterWilfrid Laurier University, Ontario

How does a human acquire, comprehend, produce and control multiple languages with just the power of one mind? What are the cognitive consequences of being a bilingual? These are just a few of the intriguing questions at the core of studying bilingualism from psycholinguistic and neurocognitive perspectives. Bringing together some of the world’s leading experts in bilingualism, cognitive psychology and language acquisition, The Cambridge Handbook of Bilingual Processing explores these questions by presenting a clear overview of current theories and findings in bilingual processing. This comprehensive handbook is organized around overarching thematic areas including theories and methodologies, acquisition and development, comprehension and representation, production, control, and the cognitive consequences of bilingualism. The handbook serves as an informative overview for researchers interested in cognitive bilingualism and the logic of theoretical and experimental approaches to language science. It also functions as an instrumental source of readings for anyone interested in bilingual processing.Contributors: John W.

The Acquisition of Syntactic StructureAnimacy and Thematic AlignmentMisha BeckerUniversity of North Carolina, Chapel Hill

This book explains how children’s early ability to distinguish between animate and inanimate nouns helps them acquire complex sentence structure. The theoretical claims of the book expand the well-known hypotheses of Syntactic and Semantic Bootstrapping, resulting in greater coverage of the core principles of language acquisition.

‘This book is a major milestone for acquisition research in the ‘strict’ sense: what exactly does the adult know, and how do children acquire that knowledge? Becker is conversant with an unusually broad range of disciplines, including generative grammar, developmental psychology, and computational modeling. This enables her to support the book’s central thesis – that children use animacy cues for detecting syntactic displacement – with strong, converging evidence from cross-linguistic comparisons, adult psycholinguistics, Bayesian models, transcripts of child-directed speech, and laboratory experiments with children.’William Snyder, Linguistics and Cognitive Science, University of Connecticut

Advance praise: ‘This book provides an excellent guide to what can and what can’t be done in historical linguistics and Indo-European studies, and it offers a much-needed counterblast to much recent work in the field.’James Clackson, University of Cambridge

Grammar, Rhetoric and Usage in EnglishPreposition Placement 1500–1900Nuria Yáñez-BouzaUniversity of Manchester

Explores the preposition in English, and particularly how its placement in a sentence is influenced by both syntactic and sociolinguistic constraints. This detailed, corpus-based study shows how such issues have affected the placement and usage of the English preposition since the sixteenth century.

Advance praise: ‘Nuria Yanez-Bouza offers a theoretically and empirically rich exploration of the relationship between linguistic practice and precept in the usage of that notorious grammatical shibboleth, preposition stranding, in late modern English. The

result is a comprehensive account of eighteenth century attitudes and linguistic habits in the period.’Susan Fitzmaurice, University of Sheffield

History of the English Language

Fixing EnglishPrescriptivism and Language HistoryAnne CurzanUniversity of Michigan, Ann Arbor

Anne Curzan demonstrates the important role prescriptivism plays in the history of the English language. Starting with a pioneering new definition of prescriptivism as a linguistic phenomenon, she highlights the significant role played by Microsoft’s grammar checker, debates about ‘real words’, non-sexist language reform, and efforts to reappropriate stigmatized terms.

‘Anne Curzan takes prescriptivism seriously; this informative, engaging and readable book deserves serious attention from anyone with an interest in the history - or the future - of English.’Deborah Cameron, University of Oxford

Jewish historical sociolinguistics is rich in unanswered questions: when does a language become ‘Jewish’? What was the origin of Yiddish? This book presents a vivid commentary on Jewish survival and Jewish speech communities, investigating difficult questions about language varieties and choices in speech and writing.

‘Bernard Spolsky’s magnum opus shows us the complexities of a globalized sociolinguistic system within a relatively small community of people.

The Cambridge Handbook of Linguistic AnthropologyEdited by N. J. EnfieldMax Planck Institute

Paul KockelmanYale University, Connecticut

and Jack SidnellUniversity of Toronto

The field of linguistic anthropology looks at human uniqueness and diversity through the lens of language, our species’ special combination of art and instinct. Human language both shapes, and is shaped by, our minds, societies, and cultural worlds. This state-of-the-field survey covers a wide range of topics, approaches and theories, such as the nature and function of language systems, the relationship between language and social interaction, and the place of language in the social life of communities. Promoting a broad vision of the subject, spanning a range of disciplines from linguistics to biology, from psychology to sociology and philosophy, this authoritative handbook is an essential reference guide for students and researchers working on language and culture across the social sciences.

‘Masquerading under the humble rubric of a ‘Handbook’, this stunning collection of original essays juxtaposes many of the central senior figures of linguistic anthropology with an impressive array of younger voices – including the editors themselves – shaking the mix further by sometimes unexpected but always provocative conjunctions of themes and expertise. It presents fresh evidence for why theoretical advances stemming from a preoccupation with language now inform the best of current anthropological thinking more widely. The collection not only spans an impressive range of linguistic and transdisciplinary topics, but also reflects the main centers of research and discovery in modern linguistic anthropology.’John B. Haviland, University of California, San Diego

Drawn from the GroundSound, Sign and Inscription in Central Australian Sand StoriesJennifer GreenUniversity of Melbourne

Sand stories from Central Australia are a traditional form of Aboriginal women’s verbal art that incorporates speech, song, sign, gesture and drawing. This detailed study takes a multimodal approach to the analysis of the stories and shows how the expressive elements used in the stories are orchestrated together.

‘It is a commonplace to note that humans communicate with one another in many different ways. It is rare, however, to encounter analyses of human communication which display analytically the complex nature of how the semiotic ensemble humans make use of may be organised. Drawn from the Ground is an outstanding example of such an analysis. Besides being a very significant contribution to our understanding of an important and interesting cultural practice among central Australian Aborigines, this book is remarkable for the insightful way in which it demonstrates how diverse semiotic modalities function in relation to one another. An extremely valuable piece of work.’Adam Kendon, University of Pennsylvania and University College London

The Regional Diversification of Latin 200 BC – AD 600J. N. AdamsUniversity of Oxford

Classical Latin appears to be without regional dialects, yet Latin evolved in little more than a millennium into a variety of different languages. This book argues comprehensively that Latin in fact never lacked regional variations and examines the changing patterns and causes of this diversity throughout the Roman period.

‘Without doubt, this book will have a wide-ranging relevance and impact. … Adams has produced a rare book of outstanding scope and insight, combining all the best aspects of modern criticism with unrivalled traditional scholarship.’Britannia

Developmental psychology

Early Social InteractionA Case Comparison of Developmental Pragmatics and Psychoanalytic TheoryMichael A. ForresterUniversity of Kent, Canterbury

Using an in-depth case-study approach this book documents how one child learns how to talk and begins to deal with emotional experience. Through examining web-linked resources readers can evaluate the proposal that learning the skills of conversation and learning what to repress are equally important during the early years.

‘Forrester is to be congratulated for orchestrating a fruitful dialogue between two apparently incompatible voices: the ethnomethodologist and the psychoanalyst. The result is a sparklingly original account of the interplay between what the child does and what the child feels. This is an empirically-based, scholarly tour de force that will fascinate anyone interested in how children develop behaviourally, cognitively and emotionally.’Charles Antaki, Loughborough University
