Opis

This introductory textbook on languages of the Pacific Islands was first compiled to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Department of Linguistics at the University of Hawaii at Manoa in 2013-2014. The target audience is undergraduate students with no prior coursework in linguistics and little knowledge of the Pacific Islands. All chapters have been refereed and revised. The current edition includes new chapters on Hawaiian and early Polynesian pidgins.
