Abstract:
"A Grammar of Mbembe" is a description of a little studied Jukunoid language
which is spoken in the borderland of Nigeria and Cameroon. Present-day
structures of different dialects are described and discussed with respect to
diachronic developments. It is based on extensive fieldwork, but also takes
into consideration previous work on Mbembe and other Jukunoid languages. The
main topics in the chapters on the noun phrase and the verb and simple
sentence structures are nominal classification and number marking based on
Ablaut phenomena and tone, argument structure, and serial verb constructions.
The remaining chapters cover phonology, complex structures, information
structure and requesting information, and other word classes. This is
complemented by example texts and a word list in the appendix.
