The paper which follows is an attempt to compare the analytical procedures of the greatest of British structuralists, the late J. R. Firth, with the procedures of one American linguist. At present, there is rather more than usual confusion and disunity among linguists in this country, so that I feel that the only course open to me is to speak for myself alone, though obviously I must also acknowledge that the great majority of the techniques, concepts, and entities which I use have originated with other linguists. I have been motivated by the belief that when there are two differing approaches to the same body of phenomena, with important differences in analysis and conclusions, the most useful discussion is detailed comparison to discover where there are agreements and what sort of disagreements there are, and, if possible, to remove some of the disagreements by showing that they are merely verbal rather than factual
