Summary

The book focuses primarily on the descriptive facts of English syntax, presented through a ‘lexical lens’ that encourages students to recognize the important contribution that words and word classes make to syntactic structure. It then proceeds with the basic theoretical concepts of declarative grammar (in the framework of Sign-Based Construction Grammar), providing sample sentences.
