Download or read book The Life Cycle of Language written by Darya Kavitskaya and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-30 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together an international group of linguists from a diverse range of research backgrounds to explore the cycles of change in the world's languages. Historical linguistics does not solely focus on reconstructing a language's linguistic past and exploring the mechanisms underlying previous language changes; it also addresses broader questions concerning the development and ongoing evolution of language. The chapters in this book draw on data both from languages from the distant past, such as Hittite, Proto-Turkic, and Proto-Bantu, and from present-day languages including Akan, Cantonese, Kuuk Thaayorre, Seliš-Ql'ispé, Nivaclé, and Spanish. The contributions showcase current research in historical linguistics and exemplify the dynamism and inherently interdisciplinary nature of the field.

Download or read book Jensen s Grammar written by Frode Jensen and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2017-10-09 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jensen’s Grammar lessons and exercises were built with three concepts in mind. First, spaced repetition is the key to learning; hence, there is review in every lesson. Second, the information is given incrementally; that is, the material comes in a natural progression of detail and concept interwoven so as to move you along with something new each lesson while fitting it in with the material previously learned and practiced. Third, the sentences in the exercises will generally set a scene or describe an action. Thus, they are usually more interesting reading in themselves instead of the random sentences in exercises found in most grammar texts. Students completing this course will learn valuable skills. how to create, place, and punctuate relative clauses in order to write more sophisticated sentencesa simple procedure to reduce the number of words in a sentence to help you search for subjects and verbshow to use a simple chart that unlocks the mystery of differentiating the major parts of speechhow to use the words and structures you are being taught in your own sentencesunderstanding the fundamentals of grammar in such a way that you will not forget them but will use them effectively
