While other books focus on special internet registers, like tweets
or texting, no previous study describes the full range of everyday
registers found on the searchable web. These are the documents that
readers encounter every time they do a Google search, from
registers like news reports, product reviews, travel blogs,
discussion forums, FAQs, etc. Based on analysis of a large,
near-random corpus of web documents, this monograph provides
comprehensive situational, lexical, and grammatical descriptions of
those registers. Beginning with a coding of each document in the
corpus, the description identifies the registers that are
especially common on the searchable web versus those that are less
commonly found. Multi-dimensional analysis is used to describe the
overall patterns of linguistic variation among web registers, while
the second half of the book provides an in-depth description of
each individual register, including analyses of situational
contexts and communicative purposes, together with the typical
lexical and grammatical characteristics associated with those
contexts.
