Descrizione del libro

This new edition of The Study of Language incorporates many changes that reflect developments in language study over the past decade. There is an entirely new chapter on pragmatics, with an expansion of the chapter on semantics. There are additional sections on speech recognition systems, sign languages, women's and men's language, input in language learning, and several other topics. The presentation retains the clear and lively style which made the first edition a hugely popular introduction to the study of language.
