{"product_id":"new-approaches-to-contrastive-linguistics-9783110994988","title":"New Approaches to Contrastive Linguistics","description":"The practice of comparing languages has a long tradition characterized by a cyclic pattern of interest. Its meeting with corpus linguistics in the 1990s has led to a new sub-discipline of corpus-based contrastive studies. The present volume tackles two main challenges that had not yet been fully addressed in the literature, namely an empirical assessment of the nature of the data commonly used in cross-linguistic studies (e.g. translation data versus comparable data), and the development of advanced methods and statistical techniques suitably adapted to contrastive research settings. The papers collected in this volume endeavour to find out what (new) types of data are most useful for what kind of contrastive questions, and which advanced statistical techniques are most suited to deal with the multidimensionality of contrastive research questions. Answers to these questions are provided through the contrastive analysis of various language pairs or groups, and a wide variety of phenomena situated at almost all linguistic levels. In sum, this book provides an update on new methodological and theoretical insights in empirical contrastive linguistics and will stimulate further research within this field.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-13491494\"\u003eNo Contributor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Walter de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/04\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 317\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.67d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783110994988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3110994984\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-LAN\"\u003eLanguage Arts \u0026amp; Disciplines\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-LAN009010\"\u003eLinguistics | Historical \u0026amp; Comparative\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRenata Enghels\u003c\/strong\u003e; \u003cstrong\u003eBart Defrancq\u003c\/strong\u003e, Ghent University, Belgium; \u003cstrong\u003eMarlies Jansegers\u003c\/strong\u003e, Erasmus University College, Brussels, Belgium.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Walter de Gruyter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44570802127085,"sku":"9783110994988","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_a05cdcaf-3536-4579-853b-67c90d9980f7.jpg?v=1701939071","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/new-approaches-to-contrastive-linguistics-9783110994988","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
