with previously undescribed morphosyntactic variations and changes appearing in
settings involving language contact. Contact-induced changes are defined as
dynamic and multiple, involving internal change as well as historical and
sociolinguistic factors. A variety of explanations are identified and their
relationships are analyzed. Only a multifaceted methodology enables this
fine-grained approach to contact-induced change. A range of methodologies are
proposed, but the chapters generally have their roots in a typological
perspective. The contributors recognize the precautionary principle: for
example, they emphasize the difficulty of studying languages that have not been
described adequately and for which diachronic data are not extensive or
reliable.<br>
Three main perspectives on contact-induced language
change are presented. The first explores the role of multilingual speakers in
contact-induced language change, especially their spontaneous innovations in
discourse. The second explores the differences between ordinary contact-induced
change and change in endangered languages. The third discusses various aspects
of the relationship between contact-induced change and internal change.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12px; "> [DeGM]]<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; font-size: 8px; "><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 200%; font-size: 12px; "><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 8px; "><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 12px; ">Crane,</span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 12px; "> Thera M., Larry

presents the first documentation of Nzadi, a Bantu language spoken by fishermen
along the Kasai River in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). It is the
product of extensive study by the authors and participants in field methods and
group study courses at the University of California, Berkeley, and consists of
ten chapters covering the segmental phonology, tone system, morphology, and
sentence structure, followed by appendices on the Nzadi people and history and
on Proto-Bantu to Nzadi sound changes. Also included are three texts and a
lexicon of over 1100 entries, including a number of fish species. Prior to this
work, Nzadi had not even been mentioned in the literature, and at this time
still has no entry as a language or dialect in the <i>Ethnologue</i>. Of particular interest in the study of Nzadi is its
considerable grammatical simplification, resulting in structures quite
different from those of canonical Bantu languages. Although Nzadi has lost most
of the inherited agglutinative morphology, there are still recognizable class
prefixes on nouns and a reflex of noun class agreement in genitive
constructions. Other areas of particular interest are human/number agreement,
tense-aspect-mood marking, non-subject relative clause constructions, and WH
question formation. This succinct, but comprehensive grammar provides broad
coverage of the phonological, grammatical and semantic properties that will be
of potential interest not only to Bantuists, Africanists and those interested
in this area of the DRC, but also to typologists, general linguists, and students
of linguistics.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12px; "><span> </span>[UCP]]<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 8px; "><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 12px; "><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 8px; "><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 12px; ">Croft, William. 2012. <i>Verbs: Aspect and causal structure</i>.

more than two dozen language types, and cites all the major sources, both
published and unpublished, for the documentation of these languages—from the
earliest vocabularies collected by explorers and missionaries, to the data
amassed during the twentieth-century by Alfred Kroeber and his colleagues, and
to the extraordinary work of John P. Harrington and C. Hart Merriam. Golla also
devotes chapters to the role of language in reconstructing prehistory, and to
the intertwining of the language and culture in pre-contact California
societies, making this work, the first of its kind, an essential reference on
California’s remarkable Indian languages.<span>

a strikingly diverse range of languages from 12 linguistic families, this

Focusing on the formation, distribution and semantic interpretation of
quantificational expressions, the book explores 17 languages including German,
Italian, Russian, Mandarin Chinese, Malagasy, Hebrew, Pima, Basque, and more.
The language data sets enable detailed crosslinguistic comparison of numerous
features. These include semantic classes of quantifiers (generalized
existential, generalized universal, proportional, partitive), syntactically
complex quantifiers (intensive modification, Boolean compounding, exception
phrases) and several others such as quantifier scope ambiguities, quantifier
float, and binary quantifiers. Its theory-independent content extends earlier

are they different? How can language be used to trace different peoples and
their past? Are certain languages similar because of common descent or language
contact? Assuming no prior knowledge of linguistics, this textbook introduces
readers to the rich diversity of human languages, familiarizing students with
the variety and typology of languages around the world. Linguistic terms and
concepts are explained, in the text and in the glossary, and illustrated with
simple, accessible examples. Eighteen language maps and numerous language
family charts enable students to place a language geographically or
genealogically. A supporting website includes additional language maps and
sound recordings that can be used to illustrate the peculiarities of the sound
systems of various languages. 'Test yourself' questions throughout the book
make it easier for students to analyze data from unfamiliar languages.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style="font-size: 8px; "><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12px; ">1.

on which languages are compared and its study is fundamental to linguistics.
This comprehensive survey provides an up-to-date, critical overview of this
widely debated topic, exploring and evaluating word order research carried out
in four major theoretical frameworks – linguistic typology, generative grammar,
optimality theory and processing-based theories. It is the first book to bring
these theoretical approaches together in one place and is therefore a one-stop
resource covering the current developments in word order research. It explains
word order patterns in different languages and at different structural levels
and critically evaluates (and where possible, compares) the theoretical
assumptions and word order principles used in the different approaches. Also
highlighted are issues and problems that require further investigation or
remain unresolved. This book will be invaluable to those investigating word order,
and researchers and students in syntax, linguistic theory and typology.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12px; "><span> </span><span style="color:black">Contents:</span><span> </span><span style="color:black">1. Word order: setting the scene; 2. The
