Abstract:

This book is a grammatical description of Ulwa, a Papuan language
spoken by about 600 people living in four villages in the East Sepik
Province of Papua New Guinea. Ulwa belongs to the Keram language
family. This grammatical description is based on a corpus of recorded
texts and elicited sentences that were collected during a total of
about twelve months of research carried out between 2015 and 2018. The
book aims to detail as many aspects of Ulwa grammar as possible,
including matters of phonology, morphology, and syntax. It also
contains a lexicon with over 1,400 entries and three fully glossed and
translated texts. The book was written with a typologically oriented
audience in mind, and should be of interest to Papuan specialists as
well as to general linguists. It may be useful to those working on the
history or classification of Papuan languages as well as those
conducting typological research on any number of grammatical features.
