Abstract:

Argument structure of Kashmiri is a study of the grammatical patterns one
finds in the Indo-Aryan language Kashmiri. Kashmiri shows several unique
linguistic features which sets it aside from more well-known Indo-Aryan
languages. The book focuses on the grammatical relations and their coding in
case marking and in verb agreement. The occurrence of pronominal suffixation
in Kashmiri is related with the universal feature of referential hierarchies
and the phenomenon of verb second word order. The grammatical structure of
Kashmiri is situated in the linguistic area of the Himalayas, and minority
languages in the area are discussed as well. The book draws on a wealth of
examples from field work, local manuscripts and secondary sources and it is a
first comprehensive overview of the grammatical features of Kashmiri from a
typological point of view.
