"Understanding Language Structure, Interaction, and Variation "is
an introduction to the study of language and applied linguistics
for students who have had a minimum of exposure to the discipline
of linguistics. Using clear, easy-to-understand explanations and
examples, this text avoids the in-depth theoretical coverage found
in texts written for those who specialize in linguistics or SLA. As
a result, this book is perfect for students whose chosen fields
require them to be acquainted with the ways language works--such as
future teachers, psychologists, sociologists, and
anthropologists--but who do not intend to become linguists. The
text is also suitable for English or ESL/EFL teachers who need a
reference volume about various aspects of language, particularly as
it applies to teaching. Each chapter includes research projects and
further readings. The third edition of "Understanding Language
Structure, Interaction, and Variatio"n features a new design and
reorganization. All content has been significantly revised and
updated. Each chapter also debunks a common language myth and now
incorporates exercises that, for prior editions, appeared in a
supplementary workbook. Extra practice for students is available
online, as is additional materials for teachers. (There is no
workbook for the third edition.)
