There is an extensive 'written language bias' in traditional and present day linguists and other language sciences. In this book, this point is argued with rich and convincing evidence from virtual all fields of linguistics.
Linguists routinely emphasise the primacy of speech over writing. Yet, most linguists have analysed spoken language, as well as language in general, applying theories and methods that are best suited for written language. Accordingly, there is an extensive ''written language bias'' in traditional and present day linguistics and other language sciences. In this book, this point is argued with rich and convincing evidence from virtually all fields of linguistics.
