This lively textbook introduces students and scholars to
practical and precise methods for articulating the meanings
of words and sentences, and for revealing connections between
language and culture. Topics range over emotions, speech
acts, words for animals and artefacts, motion, activity verbs,
causatives, discourse particles, and nonverbal communication.
Alongside English, it features a wide range of other languages,
including Malay, Chinese, Japanese, Polish, Spanish, and
Australian Aboriginal languages. Undergraduates, graduate
students, and professional linguists alike will benefit from
Goddard's wide-ranging summaries, clear explanations, and
analytical depth. Meaning ¡s fundamental to language and
linguistics. This book shows that the study of meaning can be
rigorous, insightful, and exciting.
