The Applied Linguistics and Language Study series explores the role of language in understanding practical problems of human communication and language teaching. Drawing on experimental and speculative research in linguistics, pragmatics, and psychology. Its aim is thereby to identify and illustrate the key issues in both practice and theory. This book is original study of the nature and place of pedagogic grammar in the taching and learning of languages. It offers a fresh view of language organization, informed by current linguistic ans psycholinguistic research. The book invites the reader to explore the relationship among language form, language learning and language teaching and thus to determine the natural place of grammar in the pedagogic programme. In accomplished this, the thrust of the book is not so much upon the formation of grammatical constructs but rather upon shape of the grammatical system and its relation to semantics, discourse and pragmatics.
