Description

Do languages change? In what ways do they change? Why do they change? That languages change over time, like all aspects of the natural world and human life, is an inevitable fact – even if their speakers experience this change as a loss.

The study of language change is a fascinating area of research, not only for historical linguistics but also for linguistic theory in general, as natural languages change over time in remarkably similar ways, based on a limited number of mechanisms.

This book seeks to systematize what changes in languages, in terms of sounds, grammar, or meanings, using examples from many European and non-European languages, as well as from all stages of the evolution of Greek.

It also discusses the main methodological problems of accessing the linguistic past and the reasons that drive language change.
