#By_Maggie_Tallerman
Assuming no prior grammatical knowledge, Understanding Syntax explains and illustrates the major concepts, categories and terminology involved in the study of cross-linguistic syntax. Taking a descriptive viewpoint throughout, the book introduces syntactic typology, syntactic description and the major typological categories found in the languages of the world. Grammatical constructions and relationships between words in a clause are explained and thoroughly illustrated, including word classes and their syntactic properties; case and agreement; grammatical functions such as subject and object, and the passive. Each chapter features in-text and chapter-end exercises to extend the reader’s knowledge of syntactic concepts and argumentation, and the final chapter explains and illustrates the principles involved in writing a brief syntactic sketch of a language. Featuring data from approximately 100 languages, this fourth edition has been fully revised and updated in line with current syntactic theory and description, and checklists have been added to each chapter to further aid comprehension. Understanding Syntax is indispensable for students studying cross-linguistic syntax, language typology, and linguistic fieldwork.
