This book explores the dynamics of language changes from
sociolinguistic and historical linguistic perspectives. With
in-depth case studies from all around the world, it uses diverse
approaches across sociolinguistics and historical linguistics to
answer questions such as: How and why do language changes begin?;
how do language changes spread?; and how can they ultimately be
explained? Each chapter explores a different component of language
change, including typology, syntax, morphology, phonology,
semantics, lexicology, discourse strategies, diachronic change,
synchronic change, how the deafblind modify sign language, and the
accommodation of language to song. This book presents a
comprehensive analysis of the dynamics of language change over
time, simultaneously advancing current research and suggesting new
directions in sociolinguistic and historical linguistic approaches.
