Paperback. Condition: Good. Why do people sometimes leave off the ends of words when they speak? Is it sloppiness, progress, or inevitable erosion? This book attempts to answer such questions by giving a lucid and up-to-date overview of language change. It discusses where our evidence about language change comes from, how and wh…y changes happen, and how and why languages begin and end. It considers not only changes which occurred many years ago, but also those currently in progress. It does this within the framework of one central question - is language change a symptom of progress or decay? It concludes that language is neither progressing nor decaying, but that an understanding of the factors causing change is essential for anyone involved with language alteration. For this substantially revised and enlarged second edition Jean Aitchison has included details of recent research on a number of key topics, and also discusses data from a wider variety of languages: but the work remains non-technical in style and accessible to the reader with no previous knowledge of linguistics. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Condition: Aceptable. : Este libro ofrece una visión general lúcida y actualizada sobre el cambio lingüístico. Explora de dónde provienen nuestras evidencias sobre el cambio lingüístico, cómo y por qué ocurren los cambios, y cómo y por qué comienzan y terminan los idiomas. Considera tanto los cambios que ocurrieron hace mucho ti…empo como los que están actualmente en curso. Lo hace dentro del marco de una pregunta central: ¿es el cambio lingüístico un síntoma de progreso o decadencia? Concluye que el lenguaje no está ni progresando ni decayendo, sino que una comprensión de los factores que rodean el cambio es esencial para cualquier persona preocupada por la alteración del lenguaje. Esta edición revisada y ampliada incluye detalles de investigaciones recientes sobre una serie de temas clave y también analiza datos de una variedad más amplia de idiomas, pero el trabajo sigue siendo no técnico en estilo y accesible para el lector sin conocimientos previos de lingüística.
