Peter Stockwell Orden de los libros (cronológico)

Have you ever noticed an accent or puzzled over a dialect phrase? Language can be a powerful tool with which one can create a persona; it can be a common ground between people or can be used as a divide between social groups. This Companion is for anyone who is interested in how and why people speak and write with such diversity. The Routledge Companion to Sociolinguistics includes articles by leading scholars in the field With a substantial A-Z glossary of key terms and concepts, directions for further study, and detailed cross-referencing with links to the glossary, The Routledge Companion to Sociolinguistics is both an essential broad-based introduction for those new to the field, and a highly useful reference for the more advanced linguist.

Addressing the Language Theory section of the NEAB A-Level English Language syllabus, this textbook covers language and its description, the linguistic system of English, language change, language acquisition, language and society, and language in use. There are exercises and activities throughout the book, and suggestions for project work and extended study. The book assumes very little prior knowledge of the subject.
