Description

Explore the fundamental structures of the Niger-Congo language family with this groundbreaking linguistic study. Published by Oxford University Press, this book provides the first comprehensive look at the syntax of these languages, which represent a major portion of sub-Saharan Africa. Author Aboh, a native speaker of Gungbe, offers a deep analysis of the syntax within the Kwa language group. By examining complement-head sequences, clause structure, and word order patterns, this work provides essential insights for linguists and researchers. The study goes beyond specific language groups to suggest how these grammatical patterns can help clarify broader concepts of Universal Grammar. This text is an important resource for anyone studying comparative syntax and the diverse linguistic landscape of Africa.
