This accessible and engaging textbook offers a practical approach
to understanding the complexity of language by exploring language
use and language learning in a wide variety of contexts. Bringing
together leading specialists who are active researchers in the
field of linguistics, this book introduces readers to major fields
of language study by focusing on social, cultural and historical
factors that show the dynamic nature of language. Topics explored
include first and second language acquisition, grammar,
meaning-making and pragmatics, language use and technology,
language variation, and English as a global language. This book
surveys major principles and shows how to apply them through
structured discussion topics and activities to facilitate a greater
understanding and appreciation of language. This is essential
reading for undergraduate students taking courses in linguistics
and language use, and a valuable resource for students of
communication studies, media studies, sociology and anthropology.
