The Evolution of Grammar: Tense, Aspect, and Modality in the Languages of the World
ISBN: 9780226086651 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 420 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Joan Bybee and her colleagues present a new theory of the evolution of grammar that links structure and meaning in a way that directly challenges most contemporary versions of generative grammar. This study focuses on the use and meaning of grammatical markers of tense, aspect, and modality and identifies a universal set of grammatical categories. The authors demonstrate that the semantic content of these categories evolves gradually and that this process of evolution is strikingly similar across unrelated languages.
Through a survey of seventy-six languages in twenty-five different... Joan Bybee and her colleagues present a new theory of the evolution of grammar that links structure and meaning in a way that directly challenges most...

Language Change
ISBN: 9781107020160 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How and why do languages change? This new introduction offers a guide to the types of change at all levels of linguistic structure, as well as the mechanisms behind each type. Based on data from a variety of methods and a huge array of language families, it examines general patterns of change, bringing together recent findings on sound change, analogical change, grammaticalization, the creation and change of constructions, as well as lexical change. Emphasizing crosslinguistic patterns and going well beyond traditional methods in historical linguistics, this book sees change as grounded in...

Language, Usage and Cognition
ISBN: 9780521851404 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Language demonstrates structure while also showing considerable variation at all levels: languages differ from one another while still being shaped by the same principles; utterances within a language differ from one another while exhibiting the same structural patterns; languages change over time, but in fairly regular ways. This book focuses on the dynamic processes that create languages and give them their structure and variance. It outlines a theory of language that addresses the nature of grammar, taking into account its variance and gradience, and seeks explanation in terms of the...

Frequency of Use and the Organization of Language
ISBN: 9780195301571 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume collects three decades of articles by the distinguished linguist Joan Bybee. Her articles essentially argue for the importance off frequency of use as a factor in the analysis and explanation of language structure. Her work has been very influential for a broad range of researchers in linguistics, particularly in discourse analysis, corpus linguistics, phonology, phonetics, and historical linguistics.

Morphology: A Study of the Relation between Meaning and Form
ISBN: 9789027228789 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is a textbook right in the thick of current interest in morphology. It proposes principles to predict properties previously considered arbitrary and brings together the psychological and the diachronic to explain the recurrent properties of morphological systems in terms of the processes that create them. For the student, the clear discussion of morphology and morphophonemics and the rich variety of data brought in on the way to the theoretical conclusion is material for a direct learning experience.

Phonology and Language Use
ISBN: 9780521583749 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Referencing new developments in cognitive and functional linguistics, phonetics, and connectionist modeling, this book investigates various ways in which a speaker/hearer's experience with language affects the representation of phonology. Rather than assuming phonological representations in terms of phonemes, Joan Bybee adopts an exemplar model, in which specific tokens of use are stored and categorized phonetically with reference to variables in the context. This model allows an account of phonetically gradual sound change that produces lexical variation, and provides an explanatory account...
