Context-Sensitivity and Semantic Minimalism: New Essays on Semantics and Pragmatics
ISBN: 9780199213313 / Angielski / Miękka / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Using this theory as their starting point, the contributors to this volume develop a variety of different views about the role of context in communication, and reveal its wide-ranging implications for all issues in the philosophy of language and...

Situation-Bound Utterances in L1 and L2
ISBN: 9783110173581 / Angielski / Twarda / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book focuses on a particular type of formulaic expressions called Situation-Bound Utterances (SBUs).

A unique feature of the book is that it examines the development and use of a particular type of formulae from new perspectives. The comparison of a monolingual and multilingual approach, and the application of the graded salience hypothesis to SBUs within a...

The Pragmatics of Irish English
ISBN: 9783110184693 / Angielski / Twarda / 414 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The contributions cover a wide range of pragmatic phenomena and draw on a number of frameworks of analysis. Despite the wide scope of topics and methodologies, a relatively coherent...
