The Anthropology of Language An Introduction to Linguistic Anthropology Harriet Joseph Ottenheimer Judith MS Pine Books Reviews
- If you like to study languages like me (I have taught myself how to speak Mandarin and Korean on a fluent conversational level) then you'll love this book. Its incredibly informative in that what you need to learn about languages is finally put down into words that are easy to understand and apply. As a language tutor, I found that reading this book helped me to explain concepts easier. Especially when it comes to teaching your student how to look at every language like a new beginning and stop bringing the grammatical baggage that English native speakers always bring to learning new languages. This book is clear and concise and you will learn a lot about your native language as well as your second, third, and (if you are awesome) fourth language as well as give you the tools to pursue another language.

- I needed this book for school and decided to try out the Edition. Well I was glad that I did! Cutting and pasting for my notes, highlighting and book marking really made it very convenient. Plus it was directly on my tablet versus a book that I would later have to worry about storing or selling. The content of the book was excellent and I loved reading the stories that the author includes. It helps to tie the content together into real life events to get a better understanding of the subject. I highly recommend this book for it's content, but especially in the Edition format.

- This book was required for my Anthropology of Language and Culture class. While it was a tad dry at times, it has solid examples and was overall helpful to my learning process. If it is required for a class definitely purchase this book without hesitation. Also if you're interested in the Anthropology of Language this book will be VERY interesting to you, as it was to me. A safe buy to say the least!
- Great book
- Really good linguistics textbook
- If you like a quiet room mate this is a book for you. It never made a sound
- I had to drop this class, but I like this book. I did not know Anthropology study language as well. I will take this Anthropology Lingustics again in the near future. Some of the terms takes time to absorb , but keep reading and finding examples of the terms will help understand the study of language.
