9780340645925: The Acquisition of Second-Language Syntax

Synopsis

The issue of syntactic development is one of the most central to both linguistics and applied linguistics. Assuming no detailed background knowledge of linguistics, this book is an introduction to the acquisition of syntax in a second language. The text builds a coherent picture of second language grammatical development by showing the interactions between the syntactic, processing, and functional/discourse approaches, and looks at how and why these different approaches give different results.
