This volume takes the subject matter of linguistics, in its grammatical, semantic and pragmatic subdivisions, to include the full catalog of knowledge that the speakers of a language can be said to possess about the structure of the sentences in their language, and their knowledge about the appropriate use of these sentences. Fillmore chooses to study the range of information that the speakers of a language possess about the sentences in their language by thoroughly examining one simple English sentence.
