This book is designed to provide the basis for a one-semester course on the grammatical structure of the English language. It’s aimed at departments of English as well as theoretical or applied linguistics. This new edition has been thoroughly revised throughout, with a view to increasing the accessibility of the book for students. We do draw extensively on discoveries made during the past century of linguistic research on English, but we don’t presuppose prior acquaintance with linguistics, let alone a specific theoretical orientation or framework. We explain technical terms as they are introduced, and minimize arcane concepts and notations.
