Description
Analyzing Grammar: An Introduction provides a comprehensive introduction to analyzing grammatical patterns in any language. By covering both syntax and morphology, this book equips students with the tools and methods needed to analyze grammatical systems.
The text focuses on using standard notational devices such as phrase structure trees and word-formation rules, as well as prose descriptions, to compare the different grammatical systems of the world's languages. Students are encouraged to practice their analyses through a diverse range of problem sets and exercises.
