Abstract:

The volume presents new insights into two basic theoretical issues hotly 
debated in recent work on grammaticalization and language contact: 
grammatical replication and grammatical borrowability. The key issues are: How 
can grammatical replication be distinguished from other, superficially similar 
processes of contact-induced linguistic change, and under what conditions does 
it take place? Are there grammatical morphemes or constructions that are more 
easily borrowed than others, and how can language contact account for areal 
biases in the borrowing (vs. calquing) of grammatical formatives? The book is a 
major contribution to the ongoing theoretical discussion concerning the 
relationship between grammaticalization and language contact on a broad 
empirical basis.
