Description

Master the fundamentals of linguistic meaning with Understanding Semantics, Second Edition, published by Routledge. This textbook serves as an accessible introduction for students and researchers looking to grasp the core principles of how language conveys meaning. The book is structured into two clear sections to aid learning. The first part offers a step-by-step guide to essential semantic phenomena. You will learn about levels and dimensions of meaning, ambiguity, and the relationship between meaning and context. It also covers logical relations, meaning relations, and the specific semantics of nouns, verbs, and sentences. The second part moves into deeper theoretical territory. It provides a critical introduction to the three major approaches used in the field: structuralism, cognitive semantics, and formal semantics. Whether you are studying linguistics or interested in the mechanics of language, this text provides a clear path through complex concepts.
