吴早生等的《汉语领属结构的信息可及性研究》从语用信息视角出发，结合句法结构成分变换分析、语用语篇功能分析、语言心理认知分析和语言类型比较等方法对汉语领属结构作了较为全面的阐述：指出了名词指称性在汉语领属研究中的局限，以定位性概念来解决汉语领属结构的参照点分析；突破以往研究中割裂结构助词“的”、动态助词“的”和语气词“的”的做法，以预设特征等语用含义将其统一起来；《汉语领属结构的信息可及性研究》详尽考察了汉语领属结构中被领者前有定/无定标记主观性的语法表现，深入分析了处在被领成分位置的指示类词语、数量词语的语义、语用功能；探讨了名词化领属来源动词跟外部领属谓语动词的语义及物性、作格性，以及说话者主观移情之间的密切联系。

It is commonly agreed by linguists and anthropologists that the majority of languages spoken now around the globe will likely disappear within our lifetime. The phenomenon known as language death has started to accelerate as the world has grown smaller. This extinction of languages, and the knowledge therein, has no parallel in human history. K. David Harrison's book is the first to focus on the essential question, what is lost when a language dies? What forms of knowledge are embedded in a language's structure and vocabulary? And how harmful is it to humanity that such knowledge is lost forever? Harrison spans the globe from Siberia, to North America, to the Himalayas and elsewhere, to look at the human knowledge that is slowly being lost as the languages that express it fade from sight. He uses fascinating anecdotes and portraits of some of these languages' last remaining speakers, in order to demonstrate that this knowledge about ourselves and the world is inherently precious and once gone, will be lost forever. This knowledge is not only our cultural heritage (oral histories, poetry, stories, etc.) but very useful knowledge about plants, animals, the seasons, and other aspects of the natural world--not to mention our understanding of the capacities of the human mind.Harrison's book is a testament not only to the pressing issue of language death, but to the remarkable span of human knowledge and ingenuity. It will fascinate linguists, anthropologists, and general readers.

The phenomenon of language contact, and how it affects the structure of languages, has been of great interest to linguists. This study looks at how grammatical forms and structures evolve when speakers of two languages come into contact, and offers an interesting insight into the mechanism that induces people to transfer grammatical structures from one language to another. Drawing on findings from languages all over the world, Language Contact and Grammatical Change shows that the transfer of linguistic material across languages is quite regular and follows universal patterns of grammaticalization - contrary to previous claims that it is a fairly irregular process - and argues that internal and external explanations of language structure and change are in no way mutually exclusive. Engaging and informative, this book will be of great interest to sociolinguists, linguistic anthropologists, and all those working on grammaticalization, language contact, and language change.

IN SEARCH OF THE INDO-EUROPEANS is essential reading for those interested in the people who spoke the ancestor of most tongues of Europe and western Asia. While scholars have carefully reconstructed a proto-language, the identity of its speakers and their geographical origin remain a mystery, and J.P. Mallory shows what is currently thought in the field.

Evolutionary Phonology is a theory of sound patterns which synthesizes results in historical linguistics, phonetics and phonological theory. In this book, Juliette Blevins explores the nature of sounds patterns and sound change in human language over the past 7000-8000 years, the time depth for which the comparative method is reasonably reliable. This book presents an approach to the problem of how genetically unrelated languages, from families as far apart as Native American, Australian Aboriginal, Austronesian and Indo-European, can often show similar sound patterns, and also tackles the converse problem of why there are notable exceptions to most of the patterns that are often regarded as universal tendencies or constraints. It argues that in both cases, a formal model of sound change that integrates phonetic variation and patterns of misperception can account for attested sound systems without reference to markedness or naturalness within the synchronic grammar.

With close to 100 million speakers, Tai-Kadai constitutes one of the world's major language families. Made up of two national languages, Thai and Lao, and the so-called 'nationality languages' that represent minority 'nationalities' officially recognized in the People's Republic of China, it is a language group of immense interest and significance. Despite this, no single volume covering the Tai-Kadai languages has existed until now, and both Thai and Lao, as well as the 'nationality languages', lack comprehensive, dependable and up-to-date reference grammars. Addressing this, "The Tai-Kadai Languages" provides the clear, grammatical descriptions needed in the area.A one-of-a-kind resource, it presents a particularly important overview of Thai that includes extensive cross-referencing to other sections of the volume, sign-posting to sources in the bibliography, and can be seen as an abridged reference grammar in itself. A parallel grammatical study of Lao is also included, as are discussions of the 'nationality languages', surveys of further languages in the family with smaller numbers of speakers, and sections dealing with topics of comparative interest. Much-needed and highly useful, "The Tai-Kadai Languages" is a key work for professionals and students in linguistics, as well as anthropologists and area studies specialists.
