Childly Language explores how attitudes and cultural assumptions about children and childhood are revealed in contemporary English. It addresses such questions as: How is concern for children's safety and welfare reflected in the vocabulary and grammar of contemporary English? and When we say that an adult is being 'childish', what are we saying about the characteristics of children?
Alison Sealy is Professor at the University of Lancaster, UK. She is the author of Researching English Language: A Resource Book for Students (Routledge, 2010).
