Full Description
Completely revised and updated, this is a single-volume reference for linguistics and phonetics. This edition incorporates new words or senses which have developed in linguistics during the 1990s, and provides 15 per cent more coverage. New aspects of linguistic theory and research include: the developing terminology of principles and parameter theory in syntax and of the minimalist programme; non-linear phonology; contemporary semantics; and speech recognition and synthesis, with associated acoustics terminology.
