Keywords:
Neumann explores the quantitative distribution of indicators that characterize language use in three perspectives. The intralingual perspective compares different registers within English and German. The contrastive perspective contrasts registers across the two languages. The translation perspective displays a specific type of variation in comparison to non-translated texts. She begins with theoretical foundations then moves to empirical analysis. Annotation ©2014 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
