Description
Summary:The Yapese reference grammar is a comprehensive survey of the Yapese language. All important aspects of the language-phonology, morphology, and syntax-are discussed at both the phrase and sentence levels of structure. Useful features of the text are the extensive cross-referencing, a glossary of relevant linguistic terms, and an index. Though the book is aimed primarily at speakers of the language-both students and teachers-on the island of Yap, the text has been so organized as to be useful also to others interested in the language. Thus, the linguist, the scientist, and the general reader with an interest in language may profit from study of the text.
