Product Description

AN INTRODUCTION TO LANGUAGE, 10th Edition, offers an entirely up-to-date look at language studies and linguistics in today's world. Written from the ground up as if it were a first edition, the book is fresh, modern, and reflective of the current state of the field. At the same time, it maintains the acclaimed light, friendly, readable style and the breadth of coverage that have made it a perennial best seller. The authors examine grammatical subjects (e.g., morphology, syntax, semantics, phonetics, phonology), the tremendous leap in knowledge achieved in neurolinguistics, and the lexicological, social, and historical impact of language uncovered through the application of computers to prodigious amounts of linguistic data.
