Language Misconceived

Více o knize

Focusing on the significance of linguistic principles, this book illustrates how everyday misunderstandings of language impact various fields such as politics, law, and education. By providing concrete examples, it highlights the fuzzy nature of word meanings and advocates for a flexible approach to definitions. This perspective not only aids in resolving conflicts but also offers an alternative method for engaging with sociolinguistics, making the subject accessible and relevant to both scholars and laypeople alike.
