Product Description
In this volume, *Germen de Haan* gives a multi-faceted view of the *syntax,
sociolinguistics, and phonology* of West-Frisian. The author discusses
distinct aspects of the syntax of verbs in Frisian: finiteness and Verb
Second, embedded root phenomena, the verbal complex, verbal complementation,
and complementizer agreement. Because Frisian has minority language status
and is of interest to sociolinguists, the author reviews the linguistic
changes in Frisian under the influence of the dominant Dutch language and,
more generally, reflects on how to deal with contact-induced change in
grammar. Finally, in three phonological articles, the author discusses
nasalization in Frisian, the putatively symmetrical vowel inventory of
Frisian, and the variation between schwa + sonorant consonants and syllabic
sonorant consonants.



Regards,

Roger
