"A splendidly informative, yet lucid and easy-to-consult work. It contains all one might expect - such as clear chapters on vocabulary and accent - but also much much more: the sections on American culture, metaphor, greetings, swearwords, and websites are super-useful." -- Jean Aitchison , Worcester College, University of Oxford "I have many excellent European students whose English grammar is first-class but who have no idea what a sophomore is. This book is a wonderful introduction to the interface between American English and American society which attends not only to linguistic detail but also to the way in which the culture of Americans is reflected in their language." -- Peter Trudgill , Fribourg University "This textbook is thus highly recommended to students of English with basic reading knowledge and teachers of English (prospective teachers, too) as a second or foreign language virtually anywhere in the world. Native speakers of American English will also find this book interesting." ( Journal of Sociolinguistics ) "Overall, this book not only provides a clear overview of the distinguishing characteristics of American English but also the historical and cultural background to explain those characteristics."

Synopsis
An Introduction to American English explores American English in the context of American history and institutions, while also making comparisons with British English., An Introduction to American English explains American English in the context of American life, history, and institutions, while also making comparisons with British English. This book includes chapters on spelling, pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary which discuss how the language reflects American lifestyles and how new words are created. Coverage also includes language use and politeness; regional, social, and ethnic dialects, such as African-American English; and language politics. Much of the material presented is viewed within the framework of American history, government and education. Every chapter is followed by a set of recommended readings and references, some of which include Internet resources. An Introduction to American English is the ideal resource for non-native speakers and undergraduates studying of American English, as well as teachers of English as a second or foreign language.

    Top quality seller, communication & item! The book arrived extremely quickly in a well packaged & stuffed box to prevent movement. The book itself was also wrapped in paper inside the box as an extra measure to help it arrive in best condition & prevent damage. The item fits the description perfectly (actually was better than anticipated). Seller provided the best communication & attention to detail that I’ve ever experienced while making an EBay purchase. Highly recommend & trustworthy.

    Thank you so much! I am so happy to that you are pleased with your purchase and my service. I'm thrilled that it has found a new home with someone who appreciates it. I feel sometimes like I'm saving these lesser known books and hoping somewhere in the wide world the person who is meant to have them will find them. You've been a great customer and I'm so happy you have this book :).

    Rebecca Jo, The 1963 magazine "Locust Special" was received exactly as described and packaged well too. This item is from my collegiate alma mater, now East Texas A&M University in Commerce, Texas, approximately fifty miles northeast of the Dallas area. I will be donating this item to the Department of Special Collections and University Archives to strengthen the University's historical record. I enrolled at the University in September 1965, two years after this magazine was issued on campus
