Semantics: A Coursebook
James R. Hurford, Brendan Heasley, Michael B. Smithstep fashion. Each unit includes short sections of explanation with examples, followed
by stimulating practice exercises to complete the book. Feedback and comment
sections follow each exercise to enable students to monitor their progress.
No previous
background in semantics is assumed, as students begin by discovering the value and
fascination of the subject and then move through all key topics in the field, including
sense and reference, simple logic, word meaning, and interpersonal meaning.
New study guides and exercises have been added to the end of each unit (with online
answer key) to help reinforce and test learning. A completely new unit on non-literal
language and metaphor, plus updates throughout the text, significantly expand the
scope of the original edition to bring it up-to-date with the modern teaching of
semantics for introductory courses in linguistics as well as intermediate students.
• Unique approach to introducing the topic with short explanatory sections followed by stimulating practice exercises to be completed on the page.
• Feedback and comment sections in the text allow students to monitor understanding of material while new end-of-unit exercises allow instructors to test and reinforce learning.
• Thoroughly revised, expanded, and updated to fit with modern teaching of the subject.
