The papers collected in this volume concern five different aspects of the role of the lexicon in the theory of Functional Grammar such as developed by Simon C. Dik and his co-workers. The volume starts off with an eminently practical section on the Functional-Lexematic Model, a lexicological and lexicographical system which has largely been inspired by Dik’s principle of stepwise lexical decomposition. In addition to a theoretical introduction to the model, applications to English, German and Spanish are presented.
Montana Off the Beaten Path features the things travelers and locals want to see and experience––if only they knew about them. From the best in local dining to quirky cultural tidbits to hidden attractions, unique finds, and unusual locales, Montana Off the Beaten Path takes the reader down the road less traveled and reveals a side of Mississippi that other guidebooks just don't offer. In addition to the text being fully revised and updated, the 8th edition features a new cover treatment and new series branding.
From the preface: This book is a slightly revised version of my Ph.D. dissertation which was submitted on 10 December 1993 at the University of California, Santa Cruz. The committee members were Jim McCloskey (chair), Sandra Chung, Donka Farkas and Bill Ladusaw. In preparing this version for publication, I have left the text of the original more or less untouched, apart from the addition of this preface, an index and some occasional footnotes discussing more recent literature.
