Description
Exploring English Grammar From Formal to Functional by Caroline Coffin, Jim Donohue and Sarah North is a comprehensive textbook that bridges the gap between traditional and functional grammar. It introduces students to both approaches, allowing them to develop a firm grasp of traditional tools for analysis while also learning how Systemic Functional Grammar can enrich this approach. Through a problem-solving approach, readers explore how grammatical structures function in different contexts by analyzing thought-provoking texts such as advertisements, cartoons, and phone calls. Each chapter focuses on a real-world issue or problem that can be investigated linguistically, enabling students to understand and analyze formal and functional grammar in various genres and styles. With accessible activities throughout, this textbook is ideal for upper undergraduate and postgraduate students of English language and linguistics looking to develop their skills in analyzing and understanding grammatical structures.
