Introduction to semantics an essential guide to the composition of meaning - Zimmermann, Thomas Ede 1954-; Sternefeld, Wolfgang 1953- (de Gruyter Mouton, 2013)
Main description: This textbook introduces undergraduate students of language and linguistics to the basic ideas, insights, and techniques of contemporary semantic theory. The book starts with everyday observations about word meaning and use primarily and then gradually zooms in on the question of how speakers manage to meaningfully communicate with phrases, sentences, and texts they have never come across before. Extensive English examples provide ample illustration
