Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Thesis (M.A.) from the year 1984 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, Lancaster University (Departement of Linguistics and Modern English Language), language: English, abstract: This work explores criteria for the selection of a Universal Auxiliary Language (UAL) through the lens of late-20th century Linguistics.The text is based on several innovative premises.

Secondly, the work embraces the idea of comparing the linguistic features of potential UALs -- which also applies to the highly competitive field of UALs ('Interlinguistics') but not to post-19th-century General Linguistics, where natural-language comparisons have been shunned on the grounds of the presumed equality of natural languages (and to avoid ethno-linguistic supremacism.)In reviewing, then, what if anything Linguistics could contribute to UAL selection, the text covers: [a] a broad definition of UAL, [b] a typology of UAL contenders, [c] a review of social and political linguistic criteria for UAL selection, [d] investigation into the notions of UAL 'simplicity' and 'learnability' against the backdrop of the innateness hypothesis in Linguistics, [e] the relevance of grammatical features of creolization, and lastly [f] a contrastive review of potential UAL scripts. A key distinction is made between [1] simplicity defined cognitively as maximum regularity and fewness of rules, as generally proposed by unilinguists for the benefit adult learners of proposed UALs, and [2] simplicity defined neurolinguistically as closeness to the morpho-syntactic dictates of the posited innateness that is central to much of Linguistics in the.…
