Book Synopsis Micro-syntactic Variation in North American English by : Raffaella Zanuttini
Book excerpt: Comparative work on linguistic varieties that are overall very similar can help us determine where and how exactly grammatical systems differ from one another, and how they change over time. This book explores a range of data on unfamiliar constructions across regional and social dialects, thereby shedding light on the varieties under examination and on the properties of English syntax more generally.
