Introducing English Linguistics accomplishes this goal in two ways. First, it takes a top- down approach to language, beginning with the largest unit of linguistic structure, the text, and working its way down through successively smaller structures (sentences, words, and finally speech sounds). The advantage of presenting language this way is that students are first given the larger picture - they study language in context - and then see how the smaller pieces of language are a consequence of the larger goals of linguistic communication. Second, the book does not contain invented examples, as is the case with most comparable texts, but instead takes its sample materials from the major computerised databases of spoken and written English, giving students a more realistic view of language. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 English language|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85043579 650 0 Linguistics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85077222 650 7 English language.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 910920 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Linguistics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/999202 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 655 7 Lehrbuch.|2swd 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMeyer, Charles F.|tIntroducing English linguistics.|dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2009|z9780521833509|w(DLC) 2009009162 |w(OCoLC)286432632 830 0 Cambridge introductions to language and linguistics. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2004010684 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=304736|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
