Do You Make These Mistakes in English?
ISBN: 9780195367126 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the early 1900s, the language of America was becoming colloquial English-the language of the businessman, manager, and professional. Since college and high school education were far from universal, many people turned to correspondence education-that era's distance learning-to learn the art of speaking and writing. By the 1920s and 1930s, thousands of Americans were sending coupons from newspapers and magazines to order Sherwin Cody's 100% Self-correcting Course in the English Language, a patented mail-order course in English that was taken by over 150,000 people. Cody's...

Sorry about That: The Language of Public Apology
ISBN: 9780199300914 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. People do bad things. They misspeak, mislead, and misbehave. They lie, cheat, steal, and kill. Often, afterward, they apologize. But what makes a successful apology? Why does Joe Biden's 2007 apology for referring to Barack Obama as "articulate and bright" succeed, whereas Mel Gibson's 2006 apology for his anti-Semitic tirade fails? Naturally, the effectiveness of an apology depends on the language used, as well as the conditions under which we offer our regrets. In Sorry About That, linguist Edwin Battistella analyzes the public apologies of presidents, politicians,...

The Logic of Markedness
ISBN: 9780195103946 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Theories of language espoused by linguists during much of this century have assumed that there is a hierarchy to the elements of language such that certain constructions, rules, and features are unmarked while others are marked; "play" for example, is unmarked or neutral, while "played" or "player" is marked. This opposition, referred to as markedness, is one of the concepts which both Chomskyan generative grammar and Jakobsonian structuralism appear to share, yet which each tradition has treated differently. Battistella studies the historical development of...
