This notion can have a major influence on how language is conceptualized, and presents a central tenet in the field. In examining introductory texts used by generations of students (e.g. the multiple editions of Akmajian, Demers, Farmer et al., 2010; Fromkin, Rodman, & Hyams, 2013, and others), one finds typical arguments for distinguishing speech from language. These arguments serve to specify not only the object of study, but also how to study it. However, all these arguments, it should be pointed out once more, involve written material"--cProvided by publisher. 0aLinguistics. 0aWritten communication. 0aSpeech. 0aPhonetics. 0aPsycholinguistics.08iOnline version:aBoucher, Victor J., 1959-tStudy of speech processesdCambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2020.z9781316882764w(DLC) 2020031617
