PDF E-book for : The Written Language Bias in Linguistics 1st Edition Its Nature, Origins and Transformations The Written Language Bias in Linguistics Its Nature, Origins and Transformations Linguists routinely emphasise the primacy of speech over writing. Yet, most linguists have analysed spoken language, as well as language in general, applying theories and methods that are best suited for written language. Accordingly, there is an extensive 'written language bias' in traditional and present day linguistics and other language sciences. In this book, this point is argued with rich and convincing evidence from virtually all fields of linguistics.
