El. knyga: The Routledge Linguistics Encyclopedia

'A fascinating, comprehensive, and up-to-date collection of articles on almost every linguistic topic: a valuable sourcebook for anyone interested in language'. -Jean Aitchison

'This encyclopedia makes the daunting challenge of mastering linguistics manageable. Under every entry are concise explanations with enough details to make the topic clear. These articles are short enough to prove accessible for undergraduates, but detailed enough to provide direction for research faculty. Whether students are working on research papers, or researchers are making interdisciplinary connections, this encyclopedia makes modern linguistics knowledge available.' - Kirk Hazen, West Virginia University, USA A fascinating, comprehensive, and up-to-date collection of articles on almost every linguistic topic: a valuable sourcebook for anyone interested in language.' - Jean Aitchison, Emeritus Rupert Murdoch Professor of Language and Communication, University of Oxford

"This third edition adds 11 entries and substantially revises an additional 27, reflecting both shifting foci in the discipline and the contributions of new technologies to research. Particularly timely are updates on corpus linguistics, dialectology, natural language engineering, and research methods, where change is occurring rapidly. The present work distinguishes itself as the only recent single-volume encyclopedia to deliver lengthy, contextualizing essays on discipline subfields. Sufficient change has occurred since the previous edition to make this a worthwhile purchase. Recommended." -- CHOICE
