Full-Verb Inversion in Written and Spoken English
ISBN: 9783034305358 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 261 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book presents a comprehensive corpus-based analysis of full-verb inversion in present-day English. The author examines the distribution and pragmatic functions of full-verb inversion in different fictional and non-fictional text styles as well as in the spoken language. Surprisingly enough, inversion in oral communication has not yet received the attention it deserves, since most work on the topic has been restricted to the written language. It has often been claimed that full-verb inversion occurs mainly in written discourse, but these claims have not yet been backed up by a detailed...
