Using corpus research, Graeme Kennedy cuts to the heart of what is important in the teaching of English. The book provides pedagogically- relevant information about English at the levels of sounds, words, sentences and texts. It draws attention to those linguistic items and processes which research has shown are typically hard for learners and which lead to errors.Each chapter English languageStudy and teachingForeign speakersEnglish languageGrammarStudy and teachingEnglish languageStudy and teachingForeign speakers.English languageGrammarStudy and teaching.428.0071428.24071Kennedy Graeme D.296260MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910955337003321Structure and meaning in English4490986UNINA
