A Student Grammar of Chinese
This concise introduction to Chinese grammar assumes only a basic knowledge of Chinese, and no knowledge of grammatical terminology. This student grammar compares Chinese grammar patterns with those of English, and illustrates points with real-life examples. Exercises within the book and online answer keys help students to reinforce learned material and assist with self-study.

Books on Corpus and Computational Linguistics
Ontology and the Lexicon
The relation between ontologies and language is currently at the forefront of natural language processing (NLP). In building models of language, computational linguists must be able to accurately map the relations between words and the concepts that they can be linked to. This book focuses on the technology involved in enabling integration between lexical resources and semantic technologies. It will be of interest to researchers and graduate students in NLP, computational linguistics, and knowledge engineering, as well as in semantics, psycholinguistics, lexicology and morphology/syntax.
Computational Linguistics and Beyond
The papers in this volume represent plenary lectures and other papers from COLING 2002, and serve to explore the frontiers of computational linguistics at the turn of the 21st century.
