Opis

This study presents the first contemporary linguistic treatment of Armenian, an Indo-European language whose distinct dialects range geographically from Poland to India. The book documents a rich linguistic (and literary) history dating from the fourth-century translation of the Bible into Classical Armenian. Data are drawn from Classical, Middle, and Standard Eastern and Western Armenian, and from the author's fieldwork on non-standard dialects.

Recenzje

Impressive book ... It is hard to interpret a technical book for the non-specialist, but we would all understand the value of a book that does a lot of things no others have done before. The Phonology of Armenian does this.
