It delves into the comparison of interpersonal systems and structures across a wide array of world languages, highlighting how discourse, interpersonal relationships between speakers, and the purpose of communication all contribute to shaping the grammatical structures employed in interaction. After introducing these principles, the book proceeds with individual chapters dedicated to exploring specific languages such as Khorchin Mongolian, Mandarin, Tagalog, Pitjantjatjara, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, British Sign Language, and Scottish Gaelic. Each chapter focuses on various aspects such as mood, polarity, tagging, vocation, assessment, and comment systems, providing in-depth insights into the grammatical features of each language. By offering a model for functional grammatical description, this book serves as a valuable resource for scholars and researchers seeking to understand the system and structure of languages from a functional perspective. It serves as a foundation for functional language typology, offering valuable insights into the linguistic phenomena observed across different language communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 440g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 152 x 228 x 19 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781108725538\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44943737946362,"sku":"9781108725538","price":21.88,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1703870415511_book.jpg?v=1703923424","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/interpersonal-grammar-9781108725538","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
