Theoretical Issues in Contrastive Linguistics
ISBN: 9789027235022 / Angielski / Twarda / 1981 / 430 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Contrastive Linguistics, roughly defined as a subdiscipline of linguistics which is concerned with the comparison of two or more (subsystems of) languages, has long been associated primarily with language teaching.

Issues in theoretical CL, which also feature in this volume, are the choice of model, the notions of equivalence and contrast, and directionality of descriptions. Languages used for illustration in this volume include...

ISBN: 9783631740651 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.
