Routledge Language Workbooks provide absolute beginners with practical
introductions to core areas of language study. Books in the series offer
comprehensive coverage of the area as well as a basis for further
investigation. Each Language Workbook guides the reader through the
subject using 'hands-on' language analysis, equipping them with the
basic analytical skills needed to handle a wide range of data. Written
in a clear and simple style, with all technical concepts fully
explained, Language Workbooks can be used for independent study or as
part of a taught class.
