So far a systematic investigation into the processes and motivations of decline and loss in language change is lacking. This book is a first step towards remedying this state of affairs. It brings together a varied set of empirical investigations into decline and loss, spanning morphology, syntax and the lexicon, in different languages. Their authors apply diverse methodologies and represent different theoretical approaches. On the basis of this broad span of studies, authors and editors propose generalisations related to decline and loss and assess similarities and differences with processes and motivations of emergence and spread. The book aims to inspire and provide hypotheses for further studies of decline and loss. It will appeal to historical linguists and others interested in language change"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aStudies in Language Companion 606 $aLinguistic change$xSocial aspects 606 $aLanguage obsolescence 606 $aLanguage obsolescence$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00992396 606 $aLinguistic change$xSocial aspects$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00999169 615 0$aLinguistic change$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aLanguage obsolescence. 615 7$aLanguage obsolescence. 615 7$aLinguistic change$xSocial aspects. 676 $a417.7 701 $aKranich$b Svenja$01601797 701 $aBreban$b Tine$01471820 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821843303321 996 $aLost in change$93925554 997 $aUNINA
