Aspects of the Syntax of Educated Singaporean English: Attitudes, Beliefs, and UsageMark Newbrook P. Lang, 1987 - 416 sayfa This work consists of a collection of eight papers on the syntax of English as spoken and written by educated Singaporeans. The topics dealt with include various aspects of verb-phrase structure and use, comparative constructions, and relative pronoun selection. Some of the papers are dialectological in focus and some theoretical, but all were researched through questionnaire-based interviews and/or examination of bodies of written material. Eleven Singapore researchers collaborated with the editor in this project. |
