Antonymy : A Corpus-Based Perspective, Paperback / softback Book

Antonymy : A Corpus-Based Perspective Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Advances in Corpus Linguistics series

Paperback / softback

Description

Antonymy is the technical name used to describe 'opposites', pairs of words such as rich/poor, love/hate and male/female.

Antonyms are a ubiquitous part of everyday language, and this book provides a detailed, comprehensive account of the phenomenon. This book demonstrates how traditional linguistic theory can be revisited, updated and challenged in the corpus age.

It will be essential reading for scholars interested in antonymy and corpus linguistics.
