Synopsis

The expression “basic linguistic theory” re- fers to the theoretical framework that is most widely employed in language description, particularly grammatical descriptions of en- tire languages. It is also the framework as- sumed by most work in linguistic typology. Basic linguistic theory has also been influ- enced to a certain extent by generative gram- mar, though the influence has primarily been from early generative grammar and is often indirect. The book is designed to help the students and professionals to quickly acquire the knowledge and skills they need for this subject.
