Based on new empirical findings from across the Arabic world this book elucidates the many ways in which context and the goals and intentions of the speaker inform and constrain linguistic structure in spoken Arabic.This is the first book to provide an in-depth analysis of information structure in spoken Arabic, which is based on language as it is actually used, not on normatively-given grammar. 410 0$aRoutledge Arabic linguistics series. 606 $aArabic language$xSpoken Arabic 606 $aArabic language$xDiscourse analysis 606 $aPragmatics 606 $aCode switching (Linguistics) 615 0$aArabic language$xSpoken Arabic. 615 0$aArabic language$xDiscourse analysis. 615 0$aPragmatics. 615 0$aCode switching (Linguistics) 676 $a492.701/41 686 $a18.73$2bcl 686 $a17.61$2bcl 701 $aElgibali$b Alaa$01504143 701 $aOwens$b Jonathan$0659238 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791136503321 996 $aInformation structure in spoken Arabic$93769818 997 $aUNINA
