Linguistics: An Introduction To Language And Communication (Fifth Edition)
This popular introductory linguistics text is unique in the way various
themes are integrated throughout the book. One primary theme is the
question, "How is a speaker’s communicative intent recognized?" Rather
than treat phonology, phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics, and
pragmatics as completely separate fields, the text shows how they
interact in principled ways. Similarly, language variation and
acquisition are informed by results in these fields. The text provides
a sound introduction to linguistic methodology while also revealing why
people are intrinsically interested in language--the ultimate puzzle of
the human mind.
The fifth edition has been thoroughly revised. Revisions include, but
are not limited to, the addition of "selected readings" sections,
updated examples, new discussion on the creative nature of neologisms,
and the use of IPA as the primary transcription system throughout. This
edition also includes an account of the patterns of occurrence of
reduced vowels in English. An understanding of these patterns enables
the reader to write a phonemic transcription of any English word.
