Further Reading

These eight readings provide further information about topics related to the work in the book.  They can be read in any order but the earlier ones, on the whole, provide more background information and should be very useful to any student who is new to linguistic studies.

  1. Features of spoken English
  2. More about system and structure
  3. Verbs and verb tenses
  4. More fun with finites
  5. A note on agnation
  6. More about modality
  7. Circumstance
  8. The Cardiff Grammar

Note: The final reading on the Cardiff Grammar is different from the others in that it is a very condensed account of an alternative model of systemic functional grammar from the one presented in our book. It might, therefore, prove more challenging than the other readings.
