Breaking away from previously rigid descriptions of the linguistic
system of the English language, Crossing Linguistic Boundaries
explores fascinating case studies which refuse to fall neatly
within the traditional definitions of linguistic domains and
boundaries. Bringing together leading international scholars in
English linguistics, this volume focusses on these controversies in
relation to seeking to overcome the temporal and geographical
limits of the English language. Approaching tensions in the areas
of English phonology and phonetics, pragmatics, semantics,
morphology and syntax, chapters discuss not only British and
American English but also a wide variety of geographical variants.
Containing synchronic and diachronic studies covering different
periods in the history of English, Crossing Linguistic Boundaries
will appeal to anyone interested in linguistic variation in
English.
