Formale Semantik und natürliche Sprache

Modern linguistics makes increasing use of abstract theories to describe the human capacity for language. This textbook provides a clear overview of the current theoretical concepts and analytical methods; in addition, it explains the technical foundations of formal semantics. It is structured as an aid to teaching and learning, with large numbers of examples and exercises, and thus it is suitable for use by students of language and linguistics not only for self-study but also as a guide for taught courses.
