Syntax and Sentence Structure in Linguistics
"Syntax and Sentence Structure in Linguistics" provides a comprehensive guide to understanding the nature of human language through fundamental principles. We focus on three main linguistic theories: sentences, clauses, and syntax, exploring their pragmatic, historical, and philosophical aspects. Our book is designed to help both general readers and students entering the field of linguistics. We break down complex concepts with detailed illustrations, figures, and standard examples, making them easy to understand. Each chapter includes questions, reference readings, and in-depth discussions to reinforce learning. We emphasize how cultural influences can impact language and often lead to misunderstandings. Our book provides linguistic strategies to overcome these challenges, helping readers gain a thorough understanding of language structures and their significance in human communication.
Syntax
The second edition of this invaluable introductory text takes account of developments in syntactic studies. Dealing with the whole range of syntax, this book explains, in a lucid and approachable way, why linguists have adopted certain solutions to problems and not others. This book introduces the basic concepts used in the description of syntax, independently of any single model of grammar. Profusely illustrated with diagrams, there are sets of exercises for every chapter which can be used in class or by students working independently.
