This is a completely revised and updated edition of the Dictionary of Linguistics and Phonetics. The new edition adds around 300 new words or senses which have developed in linguistics during the 1980s, chiefly in relation to the newer models of linguistic theory, including a full account of the terminology of government–binding theory. Special attention is paid to recent phonological theories such as metrical phonology, and to pragmatics. This new edition is approximately 20 per cent larger in coverage than the previous edition.

Review:
"This is exactly the kind of elementary reference work that beginning students need. I shall recommend all our undergraduates to buy a copy." Neil Smith, Journal of Linguistics
Review:
"Crystal′s linguistics dictionary is not only the most up–to–date presentation of the entire field of modern linguistics — highly recommended to students and teachers of theoretical and general linguistics as well as to those of English, German, Romance or other languages." R. Dirven, System
"What we have here are definitions and explanations covering the main areas of twentieth–century linguistic thought, presented in a language as clear and elegant as one could hope for ... Probably the work′s outstanding quality – certainly the most useful to its readers – is its resolute fair–mindedness." Times Literary Supplement
"[It] ... deserves a place on the bookshelf of scholar and beginning student alike." Year′s Work in English Studies
"Much more than a dictionary, this impressive work of judicious scholarship is virtually a course of instruction in the wide range of studies of language. It cannot fail to be of great value to professionals, students, and the general interested public."
Noam Chomsky, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
