With respect to issues of general linguistic interest, the book deals with motivations for grammaticalization: It is...

Current Progress in Chadic Linguistics: International Symposium Proceedings
ISBN: 9789027235596 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The volume consists of papers prepared for the International Symposium of Chadic Linguistics (Boulder, Colorado, May 1-2, 1987). Although the papers are representative of the current work being done in the field of Chadic linguistics, they also reflect the current and past interests and methodologies of general linguistics. The papers included in the volume should therefore be of interest to a general linguist as much as to the Chadicist or a specialist in some other Afroasiatic branch. The papers are grouped by the areas of linguistic fields and methodologies. Papers on syntax are followed...
