Abstract

All praise is always to Allah p.b.u.h., the Almighty and the Benevolent who has bestowed and granted me with His blessing. Without His guidance, I will never be able to finish this book. English Linguistics an Introductory Survey is a book which covers all of the elements of linguistics. It focused on English linguistics. Linguistics itself is the science of language, so it begins from the nature of language. The first explanation deals with the origin of language, definition of language, feature of language and some basic distinctions of language. The second explanation deals with the elements of linguistics, including phonology, morphology, syntax, generative transformational grammar,semantics, pragmatics and discourse analysis. The third explanation deals with the relation between linguistics and other sciences, such as sociolinguistics and psycholinguistics. The last explanation deals with historical linguistics and also linguists’ theory that have contributed toward linguistics. Hopefully, this book may have a good valuable contribution toward linguistics, especially for those who intend to make further study dealing with linguistics. I believe that this book is far from perfect, so I need criticism and suggestion to make it perfect. By finishing this book, I say thanks to all lecturers in Faculty of Arts and humanities, UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya, especially Dr. Dzo’ul Milal, M.Pd as my advisor and editor of this book, my late parents, my husband Zudan Rosydi, M.A and my little children, M.Kafaa Amrulhaq and Lubna Khaira An Najda as the spirit of my life.
