The varieties of English covered include Received Pronunciation (RP) and General American, as well as some features of Australian English, southern US varieties, and Scottish English. Drawing on shared characteristics between language and music, including metrical structure, the author suggests a different approach to linguistic analysis and the description of spoken language. The book introduces both students and instructors to a novel and engaging method of description, and provides a fresh vocabulary with which to start thinking about language. It demonstrates complex topics by using music as a fun and familiar starting point, and will be an ideal resource for introductory linguistics coursesworldwide. Patrice Larroque is Professor of Linguistics at the Université Jean Jaurès, Toulouse, France. His main interests are in the domain of linguistic variation. He is the author of English Rhythm and Blues: When Language and Music Come Together (2021), first published in French as English Rhythm and Blues: Les liens étroits entre le blues et l?anglais (2015). 606 $aLinguistics$xMethodology 606 $aPopular music 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xMorphology 606 $aLinguistics 606 $aResearch Methods in Language and Linguistics 606 $aPopular Music 606 $aSyntax 606 $aMorphology 606 $aTheoretical Linguistics / Grammar 615 0$aLinguistics$xMethodology. 615 0$aPopular music. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xMorphology. 615 0$aLinguistics. 615 14$aResearch Methods in Language and Linguistics. 615 24$aPopular Music. 615 24$aSyntax. 615 24$aMorphology. 615 24$aTheoretical Linguistics / Grammar. 676 $a420 676 $a410 700 $aLarroque$b Patrice$f1801-1879,$0521501 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910725096703321 996 $aAn Introduction to Linguistics Through Popular Music$93367002 997 $aUNINA
