Description
This comprehensive textbook is an engaging introduction to syntax.
Clearly organized and accessible, it provides students with a thorough grounding in the analysis of syntactic structure using data from a typologically wide variety of languages.
The book guides students through the basic concepts involved in syntactic analysis and goes on to prepare them for further work in any syntactic theory, using examples from a range of phenomena in human languages.
It also includes a chapter on theories of syntax. Each chapter includes generous exercises and recommendations for further study.
The emphasis on languages and data sets this book apart from other introductions to syntax.
This book is an essential text for undergraduate and graduate students on courses devoted to the study of syntax.
It will also be very valuable to students in other cognitive science fields who are interested in language.
