"A significant figure in the field of psychology, communications, and linguistics offers a concise formulation of his life's work"--

A new way of viewing language, as a dynamic mode of meaning-making of which gesture is a fundamental part. When David McNeill began his work on gesture more than forty years ago, language and the action of speaking were regarded as separate realms. But language, says McNeill in Language Is Gesture, is dynamic and gesture is fundamental to speaking. Central to his conception of language, and distinct from linguistic analysis, is what McNeill calls the “growth point,” the starting point of making thought and speech one. He uses the term “gesture–speech unity” to refer to the dynamic dimension of adding gesture to speaking. It is the growth point that achieves this unity, whereby thought is embedded in gesture and speech at the same time. Gesture is the engine of language. It is foundational to speaking, language acquisition, the origin of language, animal communication, thought, and consciousness. Gesture is global and synthetic and brings energy; speech is linear and segmented and brings cultural standards. The growth point is a snapshot of an utterance at its beginning psychological stage, the starting point of unifying thought and speech. Growth points create gesture–speech unity by synchronizing a bundle of linguistic features with a gesture that carries the same meaning. This gesture–speech unity is a form of thought, a unique form of cognition.

Mastering Diverse Storytelling for Any Occasion

A Story for Everything

The World of Linguistics [WOL]

Island Southeast Asia and the Pacific, broadly the Austronesian world, is home to considerable language diversity. This volume surveys the region, with chapters on Formosa, the Philippines, the major island groups of Indonesia and island Melanesia, Micronesia, Polynesia, and the Chamic languages. Other chapters discuss the syntactic and phonological significance of the region's languages, its pidgins and creoles, and Malay as a lingua franca.

The Encyclopedia of the World's Endangered Languages presents expert analysis of the current language policy situation in every multilingual country and on every continent, detailed descriptions of little-known languages from all over the world, and clear alphabetical entries, region by region, of all the world's languages currently thought to be in danger of extinction. This new edition has been updated to reflect the greater amount of theorizing on language death, endangerment and revitalization from the last decade. Individual chapters have been thoroughly updated to reflect changes in speaker numbers, reclassifications and new controversies regarding affiliations.
