Abstract:

The fully updated new edition of the essential single-volume
reference, covering the full fields of linguistics and phonetics

Now in its seventh edition, A Dictionary of Linguistics and Phonetics
remains the definitive resource work for students of linguistics and
phonetics. Originally created by David Crystal and revised for the new
seventh edition with Alan C. L. Yu, this dictionary features a wealth
of new entries by a team of experts in phonetics, phonology, syntax,
semantics, sociolinguistics, and psycholinguistics. Throughout the
text, most pre-existing entries have been updated to reflect the
current body of knowledge in the areas of linguistics and phonetics.

Covering more than 5,100 terms, the new seventh edition reflects the
latest state of the field and accounts for evolutions in research and
theory since the publication of the prior edition. The entries provide
clear and authoritative definitions of each term and are supported by
additional information such as the historical context in which a term
was used or the relationship between a term and others from associated
fields. This useful work:

Features new and updated entries reflecting the way established terms
are now perceived in light of changes in the field
Integrates ideas from the minimalist program, situating linguistic
theory in the broader cognitive sciences
Includes tables of abbreviations, symbols, and the International
Phonetic Alphabet
Offers unique insights into the historical development of linguistics
Identifies major lexical variants as separate headwords, enabling
readers to quickly find the location of a term
Provides word-class identifiers and usage examples for single-word
headwords, especially useful for non-native English speakers
A Dictionary of Linguistics and Phonetics, Seventh Edition is an
invaluable reference work for professionals, students, and general
readers alike, and remains an essential resource for anyone studying
linguistics or phonetics at the university level.
