N2  - Assuming no prior knowledge, Understanding Syntax illustrates the major concepts and terminology associated with the study of cross-linguistic syntax. A theory-neutral and descriptive viewpoint is taken throughout. Starting with an overview of what syntax is, the book moves on to an explanation of word classes and a discussion of sentence structure in the world's languages, taking data from approximately 100 languages. The final chapter illustrates the principles involved in syntactically sketching a language, enabling the reader to construct a grammatical sketch of a language known to them. This fully updated book is essential for all students studying syntax
