Modern English StructureSt. Martin's Press, 1965 - 201 σελίδες The author's intention is to provide 'an introductory textbook on the study of English which shall be useful to elementary students without offending against the standards of professional linguists'. The book recognizes the distinction between lexis and grammar, open systems and closed systems, form and function, along with the acknowledgment of language as speech rather than writing. Advanced students will find some of the chapters interesting, as it conveys something of the current climate in linguistics. |
