Description

An introduction to Systemic Functional Grammar. Provides a model of grammar which analyses authentic texts in their social context, and which has had a significant impact on education in mother tongue and second/foreign language situations. We develop a set of tools which focus on the lexical and grammatical patterns of a variety of texts from different genres and registers.
