Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book offers a new view of the linguistic process of standardization, the movement of specific language features towards uniformity. Drawing on theoretical arguments and empirical data, it examines the way in which linguistic conformity develops out of variation, and the textual and social factors which influence this process.
