Abstract:

Over the past decade, conducting empirical research in linguistics has become
increasingly popular. The first of its kind, this book provides an engaging
and practical introduction to this exciting versatile field, providing a
comprehensive overview of research aspects in general, and covering a broad
range of subdiscipline-specific methodological approaches. Subfields covered
include language documentation and descriptive linguistics, language typology,
corpus linguistics, sociolinguistics and anthropological linguistics,
cognitive linguistics and psycholinguistics, and neurolinguistics. The book
reflects on the strengths and weaknesses of each single approach and on how
they interact with one-another across the study of language in its many
diverse facets. It also includes exercises, example student projects and
recommendations for further reading, along with additional online teaching
materials. Providing hands-on experience, and written in an engaging and
accessible style, this unique and comprehensive guide will give students the
inspiration they need to develop their own research projects in empirical
linguistics.
