Language: Its Structure and Use

Language: Its Structure and Use

This best-selling introductory linguistics textbooks treats language as both a system (structure) and a social tool (use) - an approach that serves students in many disciplines, especially linguistics, English, speech communication, and education. Features such as â€œWhat Do You Think?â€ and â€œTry It Yourselfâ€ prompt students to consider language in daily life and to begin thinking about language analysis, while new â€œLanguage at the Barâ€ features show them the real-world applications of linguistic analysis to criminal and civil legal cases. The wide range of exercises includes â€œEspecially for Educators and Future Teachersâ€ sections ideal for future educators, as well as â€œPractice Exercises,â€ â€œBased on English,â€ and end-of-chapter review sections. Based on sound scholarship and framed in a clear, friendly presentation, LANGUAGE: ITS STRUCTURE AND USE, Seventh Edition, helps students understand the uniquely human trait of language.
