Abstract:

This accessible textbook analyzes some central phenomena of the sound
system of standard Southern British English and General American in the
framework of Cognitive Linguistics and Construction Grammar. The sound
patterns are examined from the point of view of the central function of
language, that is, the expression of meaning. The topics covered range from
articulatory phonetics and the more abstract phonological systems to word
stress and intonation. The target readership includes both students and
teachers of English and linguistics. 


Key features:  
* an accessible introduction to both English phonology and phonology in
general - suitable for beginners in the field
* each chapter ends with exercises and the invitation to analyze English
and other languages with the tools of Cognitive Linguistics
* now available in paperback 



Linguistic Field(s): Phonetics
                     Phonology

Subject Language(s): English (eng)


Written In: English  (eng)
