Description

Get a clear understanding of language structure with Introducing Functional Grammar. This user-friendly guide provides an overview of the systemic functional grammar (SFG) model, covering its theoretical and practical aspects.

The book starts by outlining the differences between formal and functional approaches to grammar, before introducing the SFG model and how it works. You'll learn how to identify elements of language structure, such as clauses and clause constituents, with the help of numerous examples and exercises.

Updated throughout, this third edition is based on the fourth edition of Halliday and Matthiessen's Introduction to Functional Grammar. Additional resources are available online, including a glossary of terms and extra exercises. This book is ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate students of language and linguistics looking for an essential entry guide to Hallidayan functional grammar.
