Introduction to Linguistics

This book is mainly aimed at providing students of English department with the knowledge of linguistics or the study of language. There was a quite interesting experience when one day last semester, I asked students if they had heard about the word “linguistics.” They showed different answers. One of the answers was “yes, we heard the word linguistics but we don’t know the meaning.” Of course, this book won’t be explaining the meaning of linguistics ansich, but also the property of language, macro and micro linguistics and the study of syntax, semantics, phonology, morphology, pragmatics as well.
