Prof. Bettelou Los - Changing English

Описание к видео Prof. Bettelou Los - Changing English

Professor Bettelou Los, Forbes Chair of English Language, delivers her inaugural lecture entitled Changing English.

No language ever stays the same, and no part of it is immune. Changes affect not only sounds and vocabulary, but also grammar, word order, pragmatics, giving rise to different varieties and different dialects all the time. Professor Los discusses these changes.

Recorded on 6 May 2013 at the University of Edinburgh's Old College.
