Abstract:



Gabriel D. Djomeni & Constantine Kouankem (eds.)
University of Dschang; University of Bertoua

This book is a collection of a first ever in-depth scholarly analysis
of reinforcers in African languages and notably Cameroonian and
Moroccan languages. It provides the reader with sound knowledge about
this linguistic feature which has not yet received an academic
attention so far. Furthermore, the book attempts to unveil this
language element to feed researchers in languages and linguistics with
new insight from African languages. Without focusing on a specific
theoretical background, the collection provides the reader, in
particular linguists and students in languages and linguistics all
together with language specialists with new thought-provoking data,
capable of shaking research and publications on the morpheme called
reinforcers in African languages. The book does neither cover all
Cameroonian languages nor all Moroccan languages because it deals with
a linguistic feature not common to all the languages of the two
countries involved. Though the contributions cover only languages from
two African countries (due to the fact that the reinforcer does not
seem to feature in all natural languages), the book is however very
rich in phono- and morpho-syntactic data capable of triggering further
research.
