Language Play
Author: David Crystal
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226122052
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
In this exhilarating and often hilarious book, David Crystal examines why we devote so much time and energy to language games, how professionals make a career of them, and how young children instinctively take to them. Crystal makes a simple argument-that since playing with language is so natural, a natural way to learn language is to play with it-while he discusses puns, crosswords, lipograms, comic alphabets, rhymes, funny voices taken from dialect and popular culture, limericks, anagrams, scat singing, and much more.
