Book Synopsis Form and Function in Language Research by : Johannes Helmbrecht
Book excerpt: Language description enriches linguistic theory and linguistic theory sharpens language description. Based on this assumption, the volume presents theoretical and empirical studies that explore the explanatory power of functional-typological linguistics for the investigation of the world's languages.
