Language Change (Language Workbooks)

In Language Change , R. L. Trask uses data from English and other languages to introduce the concepts central to language change.

Language Change:

• covers the most frequent types of language change and how languages are born and die
• uses data-based exercises to show how languages change
• looks at other key areas such as attitudes to language change, and the consequences of changing language.
