This study book is an introduction to the main fields of Germanic linguistics. It opens with pragmatics, semiotics, semantics, speech and writing, and morphology and syntax, followed by text linguistics, conversation linguistics, sociolinguistics, cultural and discourse analysis, as well as corpus linguistics and the latest developments in digital linguistics. It thus provides a profound overview of all BA, MA, and teacher training levels.
