Acquisition, loss, psychological reality, and functional explanations This book is the second of the two-volume collection of papers on formulaic language. The collection is among the first in the field. The authors of the papers in this volume represent a diverse group of international scholars in linguistics and psychology. The language data analyzed come from a variety of languages, including Arabic, Japanese, Polish, and Spanish, and include analyses of styles and genres within these languages. While the first volume focuses on the very definition of linguistic formulae and on their grammatical, semantic, stylistic, and historical aspects, the second volume explores how formulae are acquired and lost by speakers of a language, in what way they are psychologically real, and what their functions in discourse are. Since most of the papers are readily accessible to readers with only basic familiarity with linguistics, the book may be used in courses on discourse structure, pragmatics, semantics, language acquisition, and syntax, as well as being a resource in linguistic research. 83 5 20 2009 6 12 2009 9789027229960 9789027290168 John Benjamins Publishing Company Amsterdam 10.1075/tsl.83 http://www.jbe-platform.com/content/books/9789027290168 https://www.jbe-platform.com/deliver/fulltext/9789027290168.pdf https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/tsl.83/html John Haiman Noeurng Ourn 5 20 2009 6 12 2009 567 588 10.1075/tsl.83.18hai https://benjamins.com/catalog/tsl.83.18hai https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1075/tsl.83.18hai/html
