In this activity-based text, Rebecca Hughes invites the reader to
examine the differences between spoken and written English. Instead
of presenting a bewildering array of 'facts' about variety in
English, she encourages the reader to actively investigate the
differences between these two modes of communication by comparing
actual speech patterns with literary ones. This indispensable guide
to the basic methods of analysis provides both an overview of the
relationship between speech and writing and an introduction to a
central theoretical issue in language studies. By the end of the
book, readers will have had the opportunity to consider material
from an extensive selection of spoken and written varieties -
including boxing commentaries, detective novels and film scripts -
while being encouraged to formulate their own opinions with regard
to lexis and structure. In addition, the tasks that have been
incorporated into the end of every chapter provide suggestions for
further self-study and follow-up work.
