Semantics is an accessible and practical introduction to formal semantics, the study of linguistic meaning, for students new to the subject. Semantics: * shows how meanings are built up and interrelated * presupposes very little prior knowledge of grammar or linguistic terminology * includes a glossary of technical terms * provides a progression of exercises with answers given at the back * backs up the activities with short, clear explanations * includes an appendix on sets and functions.
