Below is a summary of responses I received to my query regarding
Introduction to Linguistics texts, written in English, that use European language data. Thanks to all who responded. Martin Weisser, of the Chemnitz University of Technology kindly sent the following link, http://ell.phil.tu-chemnitz.de/intro/intro.html, to his online materials, which he designed to be teacher moderated course materials, but hopes to revise and turn into a book. Elizabeth A. Martinez-Gibson, from the College of Charleston Department of Hispanic Studies, suggested a text called Language Files, which does use European languages data. It is from the Ohio State press. Madalena Cruz-Ferreira wrote the following book, which she has used for absolute beginner classes at university. It has European and other language data: Cruz-Ferreira, M. and S.A. Abraham (2006). The language of language. Core concepts in linguistic analysis. Singapore, Prentice Hall/Pearson Education Asia. There is also a companion website, with lecture slides and more activities, at http://www.pearsoned-asia.com/lang%20of%20lang/ Laura Callahan, from the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures, City College, CUNY, sent three references: 1. Contemporary Linguistics. An Introduction. O'Grady, Dobrovolsky, and Aronoff. 2. The Study of Language. George Yule. 3. An Introduction to Language. Fromkin, Rodman, and Hyams. |
