A linguística da fala

A apresentação dos editores: “Este perspicaz estudo propõe uma teoria unificada da fala através da qual idéias conflitantes sobre linguagem possam ser entendidas. Ele fundamenta-se sobre diversos pontos chaves, como o conjunto contínuo do comportamento linguístico, a extensa variedade das características linguísticas, a importância da proximidade regional e social para a produção linguística compartilhada e a frequência diferencial como fator chave da produção linguística em grupos regionais e sociais, e em corpora de textos. O estudo mostra como esta nova linguística da fala não rejeita regras em favor do uso da linguagem, ou rejeita a linguagem em favor de regras; antes, mostra como as regras podem vir da linguagem como é usada pelas pessoas”.
