Meaning, Identity, and Interaction
Drawing on cutting-edge research, this book shows how tools from formal semantics can be used to formalize theories from sociolinguistics.
Social Meaning and Linguistic Variation
The only book offering an overview of third-wave variation research and theory, which is an approach centered on social meaning.
Non Canonical Questions
This book is the first to present a comprehensive theory of non-canonical questions, those question types that do not (only) request information from the addressee, but rather (additionally) tell us something about the speaker's epistemic and/or emotional state, such as can't-find-the-value questions, echo questions, rhetorical questions, and surprise questions. While much recent research has explored the formal semantics and the phonetics and phonology of both canonical and non-canonical questions, the literature is still lacking a comprehensive account from a syntax-pragmatics perspective that brings together the multiple findings and strands of research from the last twenty years.

Language Use and Linguistic Structure. Proceedings of the Olomouc Linguistics Colloquium 2021
The latest volume of OLINCO proceedings is a selected set of papers that grew from presentations at OLINCO 2021 - the international Olomouc Linguistics Colloquium held at Palacky University in June 2021. The nineteen papers collected here are unified by the topic of the colloquium: Language Use and Linguistic Structure, in that they all, in one way or the other, address the central questions of the study of human language. They all use standard scientific methodology and theory and solidly researched empirical evidence in favor of formalized structural representations of the language system.
Meaning and Linguistic Variation
An important new study of the social meaning of sociolinguistic variation.

Socio-syntax
Challenging traditional assumptions about grammar, this book shows how language variation takes on social meaning in everyday interaction. Drawing on an ethnolinguistic study of working class high school girls, along with the author's own experience, it is essential reading for scholars and students in sociolinguistics and educational linguistics.
