<em>Description</em></a></p><hr /><br /><b>Descripción</b><br
/><p> In South America indigenous languages are extremely diverse.
There are over one hundred language families in this region alone.
Contributors from around the world explore the history and structure
of these languages, combining insights from archaeology and genetics
with innovative linguistic analysis. The book aims to uncover regional
patterns and potential deeper genealogical relations between the
languages. Based on a large-scale database of features from sixty
languages, the book analyses major language families such as Tupian
and Arawakan, as well as the Quechua/Aymara complex in the Andes, the
Isthmo-Colombian region and the Andean foothills. It explores the
effects of historical change in different grammatical systems and
fills gaps in the World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS) database,
where South American languages are underrepresented. An important
resource for students and researchers interested in linguistics,
anthropology and language evolution.</p><br /><b>Temática:</b>
