Cambridge Topics in English Language: Attitudes to Language Cambridge Elevate edition (2 Years)

Author/s: Dan Clayton

Attitudes to Language Cambridge Elevate edition is an introduction to the facts and fallacies behind ‘good English’. It is suitable for advanced level students and beyond.

Written with input from the Cambridge English Corpus, it looks at contemporary attitudes to language, the role of technology, language variation – such as accents and dialects – and frameworks for analysing how people use language to discuss language.
