Abstract:

This volume in honor of Jan Terje Faarlund covers the areas in which he has
contributed to linguistic theorizing, ranging from in-depth studies of
Norwegian and Scandinavian grammar both synchronically and diachronically, to
work on the Indian language Chiapas Zoque. The book is organized thematically
with two chapters on each topic: The grammar of the Scandinavian languages
(Tor A. Åfarli and Christer Platzack); language policies and sociolinguistics
(Unn Røyneland and Peter Trudgill); French (Hans Petter Helland and Christine
Meklenborg Salvesen); language change (Werner Abraham and Elly van Gelderen);
lesser-studied languages (Alice Harris and Jerry Sadock); language acquisition
(David Lightfoot and Marit Westergaard); and language evolution (Erika
Hagelberg and Salikoko Mufwene). This book will be of interest to a wide range
of readers, from students to scholars working on any of the areas covered.

Linguistic Field(s): Discipline of Linguistics
                     Linguistic Theories
