Description

This unique text draws on the tools of modern linguistics to help the student acquire an effective understanding of learned, specialized, and scientific vocabulary. EVE helps develop familiarity with over 350 Latin and Greek word elements in English, and shows how these roots are the building blocks in thousands of different words. Along the way the authors introduce and illustrate many of the fundamental concepts of linguistics. This book will be useful to upper level high school students, undergraduates in English, Linguistics, and Classics departments, ESL students, and anyone interested in building vocabulary skills. This new edition includes updated cultural references and thoroughly revised and improved the pedagogy based on classroom experience. In particular they account for variations in pronunciation among students; clarify when historical details are important or peripheral; and improve the many examples and exercises that form the core of the book.
