A clear and up-to-date introduction to linguistics , this bestselling textbook addresses the full scope of language , from the traditional subjects of structural linguistics (relating to sound , form , meaning , and language change) to the more specialized subjects of contextual linguistics (including discourse , dialect variation , language and culture , and the politics of language).There are also separate chapters on language and the brain , computational linguistics , writing , and first and second language learning.Extensively classroom-tested , this second edition has been revised to further support student learning , with numerous new examples , exercises , and textboxes to model and contextualize key concepts.Updated throughout to incorporate contemporary issues and events , it includes worked examples of phonological analyses and multiple examples of a variety of World Englishes.
