Groups: SFL perspectives, in Word.

Hello all,

This year marks 60 years since Halliday published his seminal paper ‘Categories
of the theory of grammar’ in Word. To celebrate this anniversary, the first of
three special issues in Word has just been published, focusing on the nominal
group in languages across the world from the perspective of SFL, edited by J.R.
Martin, Dongbing Zhang and myself:

The third issue is currently in preparation, and will include papers from Jing
Hao and Wang Pin on the effect of grammatical metaphor on nominal groups in
Mandarin Chinese, J.R. Martin and Prixie Cruz on an Ecolinguistic perspective
on the Tagalog nominal group, myself and Lungguh Ariang Bangga on a text-based
description of the nominal group in Sundanese, and if we’re lucky, Luke Rudge

will be Christian Matthiessien synthesising the descriptive motifs and
generalisation that arise in nominal groups across the world.

Thank you to all the contributors! And thanks in particular to Jonathan Webster
and Peggie Tse for opening space for us for these issues!
