Abstract:

This book is a self-contained introduction to language and
linguistics, suitable for use as a textbook and for
self-study. Written by a team of distinguished linguists, it offers a
unified approach to language from several perspectives. A language is
a complex structure represented in the minds of its speakers, and this
book provides the tools necessary for understanding this structure. It
explains basic concepts and recent theoretical ideas in the major
areas of linguistics (phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, and
semantics), as well as the applications of these to the study of child
language acquisition, psycholinguistics, language disorders, and
sociolinguistics. The book is divided into three sections: sounds,
words, and sentences. In each of these sections, the foundational
concepts are introduced along with their applications in the above
fields, giving this book a clear and unique structure. Each section is
accompanied by extensive exercises and guidance on further reading.
