A Grammar Of Goemai

ISBN: 9783110238280 出版年：2011 页码：616 Hellwig, Birgit De Gruyter Mouton

This is the first description of Goemai, a West Chadic language of Nigeria. Goemai is spoken in a language contact area, and this contact has shaped Goemai grammar to the extent that it can be considered a fairly untypical Chadic language. The grammar presents the structure of the present-day language, relates it to its diachronic sources, and adds a semantic perspective to the description.
