Description

Explore the growing field of construction-based approaches to grammar with this comprehensive volume from Oxford University Press. As a key text in cognitive linguistics, this handbook examines how language functions as a network of constructions, which are pairings of form and meaning. This work offers a distinct perspective compared to mainstream generative grammar. By presenting construction grammar as a psychologically plausible theory of human language, the text provides a framework for understanding the mechanics of speech and thought. It is designed to offer a principled account of language acquisition, language variation, and language change. Whether you are studying cognitive psychology or linguistics, this handbook serves as an essential resource for understanding how language structures are built and used. It provides the necessary depth for those looking to study the relationship between linguistic form and cognitive processes.
