内容简介

《朗文英语口语和笔语语法》由英国的拜伯等人编著。The Longman Grammar of Spoken and Written English is an entirely new grammar of American and British English-from the language of conversation to the language of academic textbooks. There are no made-up examples in this groundbreaking new-gramar. The authors began. Not with preconceived notions of the grmmar of English. But with a huge bank of language data, the Longman Corpus Network.

A six-year research project brought together the linguistic expertise of an intenational author team-all acknowledged experts in the field of corpus linguistics and grammar.

The result of this research is the present volume. Many points of traditional grammar are confirmed. But now on the basis of much larger amounts of statistical data than ever before. Some aspects of traditional grammar are challenged by this book, and some new findings. Not even suspected before now, will surprise and interest the reader.

What makes this book so special is that it turns English inside out. Professor Douglas Biber's research team tagged and parsed the structures in the Corpus. This analysis revealed the degree to which different grammatical features of language vary according to the type of language. The way language is used in conversation is quite different from the waylanguage is used in fiction, which in turn isoften very different from the grammatical characteristics of newspapers or academic books.
