Description - English in Speech and Writing by Rebecca Hughes

This work provides an overview of the differences between spoken and written English and is an "interactive" task-based text. Rather than presenting numerous facts about spoken and written language, it asks the reader to consider the means of the production of discourse and to apply these insights to a wide range of examples. By the end of the book, the reader will have had the opportunity to consider material from an extensive selection of spoken and written varieties, including standard and non-standard English, and are encouraged to formulate their own opinions with regard to lexis and structure. In addition, the tasks that have been incorporated into the end of every chapter provide suggestions for further self-study and follow-up work.
