520 | 8 | |a Kristen E. Brustad has adopted an analytical approach that is both functional and descriptive, combining insights from discourse analysis, language topology, and pragmatics -- the first time such an approach has been used in the study of spoken Arabic syntax. An appendix includes sample texts from her data. | |
520 | 8 | |a Brustad's work provides the most nuanced description available to date of spoken Arabic syntax, widens the theoretical base of Arabic linguistics, and gives both scholars and students of Arabic tools for greater cross-dialect comprehension. | |
