Resumé
Grammar is thick with cultural meaning. This book explores the connections between Nordic language and Nordic life by tapping into the constructions that speakers use frequently in everyday life. Following the idea that "grammar is cultural", the book delves into key domains of Nordic living, tracing the specificity of "social", "environmental" and "secular" grammars of the Nordics.
