This accessible new book provides a comprehensive introduction to
the linguistic structure of Portuguese. Clearly organised, it
covers the central topics of syntax, phonology, morphology,
semantics and pragmatics, and explores the social and historical
background of Portuguese, its development and spread in the world,
and related sociolinguistic issues such as dialect variation and
language planning. It also includes a chapter on Portuguese in
Brazil, where approximately 80 per cent of Portuguese speakers
live. Assuming very little prior knowledge of linguistic
terminology, Portuguese: A Linguistic Introduction is designed to
help intermediate and advanced students of Portuguese understand
how the language functions at all levels, and to give students of
linguistics a useful starting point for work on the structure of
Portuguese. Keeping linguistic theory to a minimum, it focuses on
presenting the linguistic facts in a clear and lucid way, providing
a useful global overview of the Portuguese language and its
surrounding issues.
